Highlight

A district court does not err by granting summary judgment to a mineral developer for damage to a water well when the property owner did not comply with N.D.C.C. § 38-11.1-06, which requires a certified water quality test before proceeding with an action.
A district court errs by granting a motion for prejudgment interest when the unobjected-to jury instruction on awarding interest became the law of the case.
