1Opinion of the Court
CROTHERS, Justice.
[¶ 1] John Strand and other Cass County residents and taxpayers appeal from a judgment dismissing their civil rights and abuse of process actions against Cass County and from an order denying their request for an award of attorney fees. We conclude the district court did not commit reversible error in instructing the jury on the civil rights claim. We further conclude the court failed to rule on part of Strand’s request for attorney fees. We affirm the judgment, but we reverse the order denying Strand’s request for attorney fees and remand for reconsideration.
