779 A.2d 60 (2001)

The BURLINGTON FREE PRESS v. UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT.

Supreme Court of Vermont.

June 29, 2001.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Philip H. White of Wilson & White, P.C., Montpelier, for Plaintiff-Appellant.

Jeffrey J. Nolan of Dinse, Knapp & McAndrew, P.C., Burlington, for Defendant-Appellee.

Present: AMESTOY, C.J., DOOLEY, MORSE, JOHNSON and SKOGLUND, JJ.

SKOGLUND, J.

The Burlington Free Press (BFP) appeals the superior court's denial of its request for approximately $8000 in expenses and attorney's fees incurred in its lawsuit seeking the release of documents related to hazing incidents that took place at the University of Vermont (UVM). We affirm based on our conclusion that BFP has failed to demonstrate that the court abused its discretion in declining to award attorney's fees in this case.
