OPINION

HUSPENI, Judge.

Appellants, both dog owners, seek reversal of the district court’s denial of their request for attorney fees after the court declared unconstitutional respondent municipality’s ordinances limiting the number of dogs per residential unit. Respondent seeks review of the judgment of unconstitutionality.
