Fleming v. Spencer2/4/2002
st. RAP 18.1(b). She is able to recover attorney fees for defending the appeal of a contempt order. In re Marriage of Curtis, 106 Wn. App. 191, 202, 23 P.3d 13, review denied, 145 Wn.2d 1008 (2001). RAP 18.1 details the procedures for obtaining such fees.
III. Inadequately Briefed Issues
Spencer contends that the trial court denied him due process by denying him the funds necessary to retain counsel. He fails, however, to cite to any legal authority that gives him this right or to portions of the record supporting his argument. RAP 10.3(a)(5); Cowiche, 118 Wn.2d at 819.
We are unable to review this issue. Similarly, Spencer says that the trial court denied him his right to pursue discovery. Yet, he is unable to establish in the record the trial court's denial of such a right. He also argues that the trial court abused its discretion by denying his motion to amend or vacate after trial and entry of judgment. Although he cites CR 59, he provides no application of the rule to the facts. His briefing on these arguments is simply inadequate to permit meaningful review. State v. Wheaton, 121 Wn.2d 347, 365, 850 P.2d 507 (1993).
In summary, we conclude that Spencer and Fleming did have a meretricious relationship commencing in 1983. The trial court did not abuse its discretion by including the Sultan property in the distribution and eventually awarding it to Fleming with an equalizing payment to Spencer.
We uphold the attorney fee award for contempt and make a corresponding award on appeal for defending the issue.
Affirmed.
