1Opinion of the Court

JOHN P. MOORE, Circuit Judge.

Defendant-appellant, Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad Company, appeals an order of the district court awarding attorney fees to plaintiff-appellee, A.T. Clayton & Co., Inc., in this action brought under the Car-mack Amendment to the Interstate Commerce Act. Because we conclude that under Missouri, Kansas & Texas Ry. v. Harris, 234 U.S. 412, 34 S.Ct. 790, 58 L.Ed. 1377 (1914), the Oklahoma attorney fee provision is not preempted by the Carmack Amendment and was properly applied by the district court, we affirm.
