    CHRISTENSEN v CHRISTENSEN (AFTER REMAND)
    Docket Nos. 58336, 59547.
    Submitted January 4, 1983, at Grand Rapids.
    Decided June 22, 1983.
    Decision after remand released on May 7, 1985.
    This case was previously published at 126 Mich App 611; 337 NW2d 611 (1983). The Court of Appeals, while retaining jurisdiction, remanded the case to the Ionia Circuit Court for a determination of the amount of punitive damages to be assessed against plaintiffs. On remand, that court determined the amount of damages to be $8,910, James L. Banks, J. The issue before the Court of Appeals now is the appropriateness of the circuit court’s determination of the amount of damages. Held:
    
    The trial court’s determination of damages in the amount of $8,910 is approved, and interest at the statutory rate from December 14, 1983, is allowed.
    
      Thomas Rasmusson, for plaintiffs.
    
      McShane & Bowie (by Keith P. Walker), for Keith F. and Margaret E. Cline.
    Before: Mackenzie, P.J., and R. B. Burns and E. A. Quinnell, JJ.
    
      
       Circuit judge, sitting on the Court of Appeals by assignment.
    
   Per Curiam.

In this case, this Court determined that plaintiffs-appellants’ appeal was vexatious under the standard stated in GCR 1963, 816.5(1)(a), see Christensen v Christensen, 126 Mich App 640; 337 NW2d 611 (1983), and this Court assessed punitive damages against plaintiffs-appellants in an amount equivalent to defendants’ expenses on appeal, including reasonable attorney’s fees. This Court remanded the case to the circuit court, retaining jurisdiction, for determination of the amount of damages. The circuit court set damages at $8,910 at a hearing on December 14, 1984.

After review of the transcript of the hearing in circuit court on remand, we approve the trial court’s determination of damages in the amount of $8,910, and further allow interest at the statutory judgment rate from December 14, 1983. We retain no further jurisdiction.
