    NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE, et al. v. J. Gerald QUIRK, M.D., et al.
    94-575
    922 S.W.2d 717
    Supreme Court of Arkansas
    Opinion delivered June 3, 1996
    
      
      Davidson & Associates, PA., by: Bob Davidson; and Bernard Whetstone, PA., by: Bernard Whetstone, for appellants.
    
      Friday, Eldredge & Clark, by: J. Phillip Malcom, for appellees.
   Per Curiam.

Appellants, National Bank of Commerce, et al., have filed a “motion to amend mandate” and request additional costs on appeal. In the mandate issued April 5, 1996, costs on appeal were awarded as follows: Appellants’ Brief $500.00; Record $2,442.75; Filing Fee $100.00. The appellants submit that the total cost for preparing the record was $26,009.98; therefore, the appellants contend that they are entitled to an additional $23,567.23 for the cost of producing the record.

Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 6-7, Taxation of Costs, provides in part:

(b) Reversal. The appellant may recover brief costs not to exceed $3.00 per page; total costs not to exceed $500.00, the filing fee of $100.00 and the certified costs of the transcript.
(c) Affirmed in Part and Reversed in Part — Law. In cases at law, the appellant is entitled to the appeal costs if a reversal is ordered, and a substantial recovery is made.

In the instant case, we affirmed in part and reversed in part the decision of the trial court. Because of the partial reversal, we award the appellants one-half of the amount of the requested costs for the record. See In Re Marriage of Swanson, 904 S.W.2d 88 (Mo. App. S.D. 1995); Steffens v. Paramount Properties, Inc., 667 S.W.2d 725 (Mo. App. E.D. 1984); see also 5 Am. Jur. 2d, Appellate Review § 935 (1995). Consequently, we amend the mandate to award costs on appeal as follows: Appellants’ Brief $500.00; Record $13,004.99; Filing Fee $100.00.

Dudley, Glaze, and Brown, JJ., not participating.

Special Justices JAMES McLARTY and W. KELVIN WYRICK would award the entire amount requested by the appellants.
