Opinion

McDONALD, J.

Sharon S. (Sharon) appeals an order awarding Annette F. (Annette) attorney fees in Annette’s action raising custody and visitation issues as to their son Zachary. On appeal Sharon contends the trial court: (1) acted in excess of its jurisdiction by awarding attorney fees without statutory authority; and (2) abused its discretion by awarding Annette $17,500 in attorney fees in the circumstances of this case. Annette contends Sharon’s appeal is untimely and should be dismissed. Because we conclude Sharon’s notice of appeal was not timely filed, we dismiss her appeal.
