Highlight

A summary eviction action may be brought to recover the possession of real estate if a lessee violates a material term of the written lease agreement between the lessor and lessee.

Whether a lease has been fully complied with should be treated as a finding of fact because the rules of construction relating to contracts generally apply to the construction of leases.

In a bench trial, the district court is the determiner of credibility issues and we will not second-guess the district court on its credibility determinations. Findings of the trial court are presumptively correct.

An order holding a person in contempt is a final order for purposes of appeal. A contempt order is immediately appealable.
