Parson v. Cobb

1 Glenn and Johanna Pearson appeal that part of a judgment denying their motion for attorney fees and costs under a timber sales contract with Dan C. Cobb and TNT Logging, Inc. (collectively, "Cobb"). In turn, Cobb cross-appeals the judgment against him and the denial of his motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict. The Pearsons argue they are entitled to recover attorney fees and costs under the terms of the timber sales contract. We agree and reverse that part of the judgment and remand the matter to the circuit court for a determination of reasonable attorney fees. With respect to the cross-appeal, Cobb challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the jurys verdict. We reject Cobbs claims and affirm the judgment against him.
