1Opinion of the Court

MECHEM, Senior District Judge.

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist in the determination of this appeal. See Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 10th Cir.R. 34.1.9. The cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

In this diversity case defendant appeals the district court’s award of attorney’s fees under state law. Defendant also challenges the court’s refusal to reduce the fee award pursuant to an offer of judgment and in light of plaintiffs’ agreement to share fees with a non-party.
