No. S-9587.

31 P.3d 1273 (2001)

Duane Donald HODGE, Appellant, v. Georganna Carla SORBA, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Alaska.

October 5, 2001.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David R. Edgren, Edgren & Associates, P.C., Anchorage, for Appellant.

Joseph R.D. Loescher, Hughes Thorsness Powell Huddleston & Bauman LLC, Anchorage, for Appellee.

Before FABE Chief Justice, and MATTHEWS, EASTAUGH, BRYNER, and CARPENETI, Justices.


OPINION

EASTAUGH, Justice.

I. INTRODUCTION

Duane Hodge appeals the superior court's award of $22,594.50 in attorney's fees and $1,003.21 in costs to his ex-wife, Georganna Sorba, following their divorce proceeding. Because, contrary to Duane's argument, Georganna did not have a contingent fee agreement with her attorneys, and because the award was permissible under AS 25.24.140(a), we affirm the award.
