Johnson, Chief Judge.
This zoning case arises out of a five-year dispute between Dover Realty Company and Ben Dover (collectively “Dover Realty”) and the City of Jackson, its Mayor and its council members (collectively “City of Jackson”) regarding the City of Jackson’s refusal to rezone Dover Realty’s property.

Dover Realty voluntarily dismissed its first lawsuit, and the trial court awarded the City of Jackson attorney fees.
