KAUGER, Vice Chief Justice.

Two issues are presented: 1) whether appeal-related attorney fees may be awarded under 11 O.S.1991 § 23-101;1 and 2) whether the amount of attorney fees awardable must be determined in a jury trial. We find that appeal-related attorney fees may be recovered pursuant to 11 O.S.1991 § 23-101 but that the award is not subject to trial by Jury.
