VICORP RESTAURANTS, INC., Appellee, v. James J. BADER, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

March 24, 1999.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Donald G. Thompson and Vernon P. Squires of Bradley & Riley, P.C., Cedar Rapids, for appellant.

Thomas P. Peffer and Diane Kutzko of Shuttleworth & Ingersoll, P.C., Cedar Rapids, for appellee.

Considered by LARSON, P.J., and LAVORATO, SNELL, TERNUS, and CADY, JJ.


LAVORATO, Justice.

This appeal arises out of a franchise agreement. The franchisee appeals from the district court's denial of his request for attorney fees on a limited remand from our court. He argues the district court should have awarded him attorney fees as the prevailing party pursuant to a fee-shifting provision in the agreement. We agree and reverse and remand for a determination of both trial and appellate attorney fees.

I. Facts.
