Syllabus

Trial court abused its discretion when it dismissed appellant's objections to the magistrate's decision due to a relatively minor violation of the local rules by appellant's trial counsel that resulted in little prejudice to appellee. Because appellee's motion to dismiss appellant's objections lacked merit, the trial court erred by imposing a monetary sanction on appellant to compensate appellee for attorney fees related to the motion. Judgment reversed.
