VOGEL, P.J.
On appeal, Jennifer Mackey challenges the district court decision finding
her in contempt of orders in the partiesā dissolution proceedings. However, on
January 31, 2014, Jenniferās petition for writ of certiorari and request for a stay of
the sentencing portion of the finding of contempt was denied by our supreme
court. On March 13, 2014, the supreme court ruled Jennifer may not challenge
in this appeal the district court decision finding her in contempt, but only raise
issues regarding the dissolution decree. She persists in only challenging the
entry of the contempt orders and has not raised any issues concerning the
partiesā dissolution decree. She has therefore waived those issues on appeal.
See Iowa R. App. P. 6.903(2)(g)(3). Because no issues with respect to the
dissolution decree have been raised, we affirm the dissolution decree in this
memorandum opinion. See Iowa Ct. R. 21.26(1)(e).
We conclude each party should pay his or her own appellate attorney
fees. Costs of this appeal are assessed to Jennifer.
AFFIRMED.
