Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Dallas County, Michael Jacobsen, Judge. AFFIRMED AND REMANDED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., and Schumacher and Ahlers, JJ. Opinion by Tabor, P.J. (14 pages)
Robert Sherwood appeals the district court’s order requiring him to pay temporary spousal support to Laura Sherwood during their marriage dissolution proceedings. Laura defends the support and requests appellate attorney fees. OPINION HOLDS: Because we find the district court’s award of temporary spousal support equitable, we affirm. We also agree that Laura is entitled to appellate attorney fees and remand for the district court to determine a reasonable amount.
