Description
We granted certiorari in Cerveny v. City of Wheat Ridge, 888 P.2d 339 (Colo. App. 1994). The petitioner, the City of Wheat Ridge (Wheat Ridge), seeks our review of the court of appeals' decision reversing the trial court's denial of an award of attorney fees to taxpayers Carl Cerveny, George J. Langdon, and Kenneth K. Siler, the respondents. The issues before us are: (1) whether an award of attorney fees is mandated under article X, section 20(1) of the Colorado Constitution (Amendment 1);*fn1 (2) the propriety of the court of appeals' standard of review of the trial court's determination; (3) the applicability of rule requirements to contingent fee agreements in awarding attorney fees; and (4) whether parties who do not incur attorney fees and costs are nonetheless eligible to receive an award.*fn2 We reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and return the case to that court with instructions to remand to the trial court for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
