Description

Affirmed OPINION Appellants argue that the trial court improperly denied them attorney fees under Minn. Stat. § 466.07 (2002), Minn. Stat. § 123B.25(b) (2002), or Minn. R. Civ. P. 37.03. Respondent asked the court to review whether it is entitled to judgment on its conversion claim. While we conclude that Minn. Stat. § 466.07 applies to employer/employee claims, because the trial court did not err in finding that appellants acted in bad faith, they are not entitled to attorney fees under Minn. Stat. § 466.07 or Minn. Stat. §Á123B.25(b). Because the trial court did not abuse its discretion in finding that respondent had reasonable grounds to believe that the party might prevail, appellants are not entitled to attorney fees under Minn. R. Civ. P. 37.03. Because there can be no conversion where the property is compensation to the party who allegedly converted it, we again affirm the trial court. FACTS
