OPINION

MATHIAS, Judge.

Pro-se appellant-petitioner John Carnes (“Carnes”) appeals from a default judgment in the Wells Circuit Court after he failed to appear for the hearing. Concluding that Carnes failed to first file a Trial Rule 60(B) motion with the trial court and that he has also failed to make any cogent argument, we affirm. In addition, as per its request, we award the Estate of Lawrence Carnes (“the Estate”) appellate attorney’s fees and remand this cause to the trial court for a determination as to the amount of fees.
