 Appellant argues the district court did not deal with his motion for sanctions against "Appellees."   While parties are subject to Rule 11 sanctions,  Business Guides, Inc. v. Chromatic Communications Enterprises, Inc., 111 S.Ct. 922 (1991), the only persons named as respondents in the original petition were Frank Gunter and former Attorney General Duane Woodard.   There is no indication in the record that either made the representations which were relied upon by counsel for the respondents or that they personally made false statements to the district court.   Petitioner's only "evidence" in support of his Rule 11 motion was hearsay contained in a newspaper article.   The district court properly disregarded that hearsay.   Fed.R.Evid. 802
