Rath v. Rath, et al.
2022 ND 105
Docket No.: 20210120
Filing Date: 5/26/2022
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Child Support
Author: Jensen, Jon J.
Highlight: A district court has broad discretion on evidentiary matters and over the conduct of a hearing. A ruling on a motion in limine is reviewed under the abuse of discretion standard.
The right to closing arguments can be waived by the parties and narrowed by the courts, but it cannot be unilaterally denied.
To modify parenting time, a movant must establish a material change of circumstances has occurred since the prior parenting time order and that it is in the child’s best interests to modify the order.
A demand for change of judge, once granted, carries forward in any particular case, even when a new proceeding is filed in a divorce case triggering a new judge assignment.
The Supreme Court may, on its own motion or the motion of any party to an appeal, enter a pre-filing order prohibiting a vexatious litigant from filing any new litigation in the courts of this state as a self-represented party without first obtaining leave of a judge of the court where the litigation is proposed to be filed.
