1Opinion of the Court
BEAM, Circuit Judge.
After receiving a favorable judgment in a prior proceeding, George Lobrano, Jr., moved to dismiss Appellants’ complaint in the present action on the basis of res judicata. Lobrano also filed a motion requesting sanctions and attorney’s fees. The district court 2 granted the motion to dismiss but declined to impose sanctions or award attorney’s fees. Appellants now appeal the dismissal, and Lobrano cross-appeals the district court’s judgment on sanctions and attorney’s fees. We affirm both rulings.
