Larson Latham Huettl v. Iversen
2023 ND 16
Docket No.: 20220198
Filing Date: 2/16/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Contracts
Author: Tufte, Jerod E.
Highlight: A party to a contract does not waive its contractual rights when its actions are expressly authorized by the terms of the contract.
When a contract has but a single object and such object is wholly impossible of performance, the entire contract is void.

Continued employment for a substantial period of time is sufficient consideration to support an employment agreement.

Sadek, et al. v. Weber, et al.
2023 ND 14
Docket No.: 20220155
Filing Date: 2/16/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Torts (Negligence, Liab., Nuis.)
Author: McEvers, Lisa K. Fair
Highlight: Rule 54(b), N.D.R.Civ.P., authorizes a district court to direct entry of a judgment adjudicating fewer than all of the claims as final when there is “no just reason for delay.” Absent a finality certification under Rule 54(b), a decision adjudicating fewer than all of the claims in a case does not end the action and it may be revised at any time before entry of a final judgment deciding all of the claims. Rule 54(b) does not apply when a judgment decides all of the claims in a case.
The district court did not err when it sanctioned an attorney under N.D.R.Civ.P. 11 after the attorney ignored provisions in rules and prior holdings the case.
Sanctions on appeal were appropriate when an attorney persisted in groundless arguments without acknowledging obvious deficiencies pointed out by the district court.
