“[njothing in the trial court’s judgment suggests that it intended to deny the defendants’ claim for attorney fees. The award of costs, by itself does not make the judgment final.... Because the judgment does not appear final on its face, and because it did not dispose of the defendants’ claim for attorney fees, it was not a final and appealable judgment.”
