Matter of Rose Henderson Peterson Mineral Trust 2022 ND 92
Docket No.: 20210258
Filing Date: 9/15/2022
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Probate, Wills, Trusts
Author: Per Curiam

Highlight: Satisfaction of an independent undisputed portion of a judgment does not operate as a full waiver of the right to appeal.

Res judicata and the law of the case doctrine do not bar litigation of the same type of claim based on different facts.

Under N.D.C.C. § 58-18-08, a trustee may not be exculpated for breaches of trust committed in bad faith or with reckless indifference to the purposes of the trust.

Absent the requisite findings and analysis, review of a district court decision is not possible and remand is appropriate.
