This is an appeal from a judgment entered by the trial court after court-annexed arbitration, under ORS 36.400 to 36.425, of plaintiffs claims against defendant Nikon, Inc. 1 The arbitrator ruled in defendant’s favor on the merits of plaintiffs claims and awarded defendant costs and attorney fees. Plaintiff filed exceptions in the trial court, arguing that the award of attorney fees was erroneous because defendant did not submit a sufficiently detailed fee statement pursuant to ORCP 68; the statement did not itemize the services provided by defendant’s counsel. Defendant conceded that its fee statement did not meet the requirements of ORCP 68, but it contended that the arbitrator was not required to follow the procedures prescribed in that rule. The trial court denied plaintiffs exceptions. On appeal, the parties renew the arguments that they made to the trial court. We conclude that the record is inadequate to allow review and therefore dismiss the appeal.

The parties’ arguments in this case center on whether ORCP 68 applied to the proceedings before the arbitrator. As defendant notes, we have previously held that ORCP 68 does not apply to court-annexed arbitration proceedings. See Foust v. American Standard Ins. Co., 189 Or App 125, 135, 74 P3d 1111 (2003). Plaintiff argues that our holding was limited and that the facts of this case distinguish it from Foust. We need not consider plaintiffs argument because, assuming, without deciding, that ORCP 68 does apply to this case, on the record before us, we cannot say whether the arbitrator erred in awarding defendant attorney fees and, therefore, whether the trial court erred in including attorney fees in the judgment. See ORS 19.415(2) (“No judgment shall be reversed or modified except for error substantially affecting the rights of a party.”).

Plaintiffs reliance on ORCP 68 stems from an erroneous premise — namely, that, as a matter of law, an insufficiently detailed ORCP 68 statement is fatal to a claim for *269 attorney fees. It is true that, by itself, a deficient attorney fee statement will not support a claim for fees. See Parker v. Scharbach, 75 Or App 530, 535, 707 P2d 85 (1985) (“ ‘Amere summation and totaling of hours spent on a case will not suffice to support a petition for [reasonable] attorney fees.’ ” (quoting State v. Grandy, 52 Or App 15, 19, 627 P2d 895 (1981)) (brackets in Parker)). However, a “lack of specificity or detail in the written documents filed under ORCP 68 may be remedied by the evidence presented at a hearing on attorney fees.” Orendain v. Meyer Square Ltd., 97 Or App 608, 612, 776 P2d 1309, rev den, 308 Or 593 (1989). Thus, an inadequate fee statement does not preclude an award of attorney fees if other evidence that supports the reasonableness of the award is presented at the hearing. Put differently, an award of attorney fees is erroneous as a matter of law only if there is no evidence other than an inadequate fee statement to support the award.

For plaintiff to prevail in this appeal, he must show both that defendant’s attorney fee statement was deficient— a fact that defendant concedes — and that no other evidence supported the arbitrator’s determination that the attorney fees it awarded were reasonable. We are unable to determine whether there was such evidence.

In their briefs on appeal, the parties assert that the arbitrator held a hearing on defendant’s request for attorney fees. That hearing apparently was not recorded; there is no transcript in the record. In the absence of a transcript, we cannot determine what took place at the attorney fee hearing. 2 See Arden-Mayfair v. Patterson, 46 Or App 849, 857, 613 P2d 1062, rev den, 290 Or 149 (1980), overruled on other grounds as recognized by Strader v. Grange Mutual Ins. Co., 179 Or App 329, 339, 39 P3d 903, rev den, 334 Or 190 (2002) (appellate courts may not consider material not contained in the record below). Consequently, we cannot say that the lack of detail in defendant’s attorney fee statement precluded the arbitrator from awarding fees.

*270 As the appellant, plaintiff has the responsibility to furnish this court with a record of the attorney fee hearing. In Foust, we explained that

“[t]he burden of creating and providing a record rests with the party seeking to alter the decision. Cf. H.N.M. Enterprises, Inc. v. Hamilton, 49 Or App 613, 617, 621 P2d 57 (1980), rev den, 290 Or 449 (1981) (‘An appellant has the responsibility of providing a sufficient record for review of the claims of error. If the record is insufficient for review, the unreviewable claims of error will be disregarded.’). Responsibility for the failure to create a record of [an] arbitration hearing and make it part of the trial court record rests on [the appellant’s] shoulders.”

189 Or App at 135 n 8.

ORS 19.365(5) provides, “If the record on appeal is not sufficient to allow the appellate court to review an assignment of error, the court may decline to review the assignment of error and may dismiss the appeal if there are no other assignments of error that may be reviewed.” Given the state of the record, we decline to review plaintiffs lone assignment of error.

Appeal dismissed.
