Date Published:

Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Scott D. Rosenberg, Judge.  AFFIRMED ON APPEAL AND CROSS-APPEAL; WRIT ANNULLED.  Considered without oral argument by Greer, P.J., Ahlers, J., and Bower, S.J.  Opinion by Bower, S.J.  (14 pages)

            Jay Breuer appeals an order modifying the legal-custody provisions of the decree dissolving his marriage to Angela Breuer.  He claims the district court erred in granting Angela’s request for sole legal custody of the parties’ children.  Angela cross-appeals, challenging the court’s finding her in contempt of certain portions of the decree.  Both parties contest the court’s awards of trial attorney fees and request appellate attorney fees.  OPINION HOLDS: Upon our review, we affirm on appeal and cross-appeal, annul the writ of certiorari, and decline to award appellate attorney fees.
