1Opinion of the Court
SCHWELB, Associate Judge:
These appeals arise from a dispute between the Association of American Railroads (AAR), as sublessor, and Connerton, Ray, & Simon, a law firm (Connerton), as subtenant, over the construction of their Sublease. Following a bench trial, the trial judge ruled in Connerton’s favor with respect to AAR’s contention that Connerton was liable to AAR for a share of certain disputed operating expenses and real estate taxes. The judge also ordered AAR to pay Connerton $73,790 in counsel fees. On appeal, AAR contends that these rulings were erroneous as a matter of law. We affirm.
