          Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Middle District of Florida
           D.C. Docket No. 8:17-cv-02832-VMC-CPT
                   ____________________

Before JILL PRYOR, LUCK, and TJOFLAT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
       This is an appeal by Endurance, Comegys’ errors and omis-
sions insurer, for attorneys’ fees based on a judgment in its favor
below against Safeco. Endurance raises arguments on appeal as to
why it is entitled to attorneys’ fees based on an indemnification
agreement between Safeco and Comegys. Safeco rebuts these ar-
guments by pointing out that, among other things, Endurance’s
post-judgment motion for fees would be moot if Safeco won on
appeal in Case No. 19-14664, the companion case that reviewed the
merits of the judgment below regarding an indemnification agree-
ment between Safeco and Comegys. And Safeco did win its appeal
in Case No. 19-14664. So, Endurance may not seek attorneys’ fees
on appeal.
      AFFIRMED.
