Description

BOGGS, Circuit Judge. Plaintiffs David and Catherine Foster appeal the district court's decision to grant attorney's fees to the prevailing defendants, Sigmund and Margaret Barilow, in an action arising under the Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. § 3617 (1988). On appeal, the Fosters contend for the first time that the district court erred when it awarded attorney's fees to the defendants without first finding that their claim was frivolous, groundless, or unreasonable. Because we find no applicable exception to the general rule that issues not raised in the district court are waived on appeal, we affirm the award of attorney's fees to the defendants.
