Black Elk v. State 2023 ND 150
Docket No.: 20230035
Filing Date: 8/17/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Post-Conviction Relief
Author: Jensen, Jon J.

Highlight: A part must preserve an issue in district court before it can be reviewed on appeal. A party must preserve a claim of error, as it relates to the admissibility of evidence, by objecting or moving to strike the evidence on record and stating a specific ground for exclusion.

This Court will exercise discretion rarely to consider issues not preserved in post-conviction proceedings, and will do so only if the error is plain and seriously affects the fairness, integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings.

A statement is not hearsay when it is offered simply to prove the statement was made. A petitioner at a post-conviction hearing is permitted to testify about the advice given to them by counsel as long as the testimony is submitted to simply show the advice was verbalized.

Advising a defendant that the defendant can deal with a material piece of evidence after a defendant has pled guilty and been sentenced by simply retracting or withdrawing the plea falls below an objectively reasonable standard of a defense attorney.

Hennessey v. Milnor School District 2023 ND 147
Docket No.: 20230056
Filing Date: 8/2/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Employer/Employee Dispute
Author: Bahr, Douglas Alan

Highlight: In an appeal from a motion to dismiss under N.D.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6), the complaint is construed in the light most favorable to the plaintiff and well-pleaded allegations are accepted as true.

Undue influence is improper influence exercised in such a way and to such an extent as to destroy a person’s free agency or voluntary action by substituting for the person’s will the will of another.

In nontestamentary cases, undue influence requires three factors be established: (1) A person who can be influenced; (2) The fact of improper influence exerted; and (3) Submission to the overmastering effect of such unlawful conduct.

The law does not condemn all influence, only undue influence.

Gonzalez v. Perales 2023 ND 145
Docket No.: 20230026
Filing Date: 8/2/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Child Support
Author: Tufte, Jerod E.

Highlight: To be appealable under N.D.C.C. § 28-27-02(1), an order must determine the action and prevent a judgment from which an appeal might be taken.

An order is not appealable under § 28-27-02(5) unless, in effect, it finally determines some substantive legal right of appellant or is dispositive of a substantive issue.

Final order under section 14-14.1-34, N.D.C.C. [UCCJEA §314 (1997)], means an order that finally determines some substantive legal right of a party or is dispositive of a substantive issue.

Docket No.: 20230117

Author: Jensen, Jon J.

Highlight: The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation has broad authority under N.D.C.C. § 54-23.3-01 to supervise offenders and probationers when directed by the district court.

This Court exercises its supervisory jurisdiction rarely and cautiously, and only to rectify errors and prevent injustice in extraordinary cases when no adequate alternative remedy exists.

Filing Date: 7/19/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Child Support
Author: Bahr, Douglas Alan

Highlight: A district court judgment dividing marital property, weighing the best interest factors and awarding parenting time is affirmed.

A district court has broad discretion over the progress and conduct of a trial, and the determination whether to grant a continuance lies within the sound discretion of the district court.

Under N.D.R.App.P. 38, this Court may award attorney’s fees if the appeal is frivolous. An appeal is frivolous if it is flagrantly groundless, devoid of merit, or demonstrates persistence in the course of litigation which evidences bad faith.

Attorney's fees awarded by the district court will be reversed if the court abused its discretion.

Filing Date: 7/19/2023
Case Type: Original Proceeding - Civil - Writ of Mandamus
Author: Jensen, Jon J.

Highlight: A district court’s review of in-camera documents is reviewed for an abuse of discretion.

A district court’s conclusion that attorney work product meets the potential liability exception under N.D.C.C. § 44-04-19.1(8) must include a finding that the records relate to circumstances for which there remains a genuine potential for liability.

A public entity that has a legal duty to defend its member agencies may be able to demonstrate that attorney work product is exempt from disclosure if disclosure would reveal records that relate to circumstances for which there remains a genuine potential for liability.

A district court must follow the pronouncements of an appellate court on legal issues in subsequent proceedings of the case.

State v. Gardner 2023 ND 116
Docket No.: 20220360
Filing Date: 6/21/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Criminal - Misc. Felony
Author: Bahr, Douglas Alan

Highlight: A criminal judgment entered after a jury convicted defendant of child abuse in violation of N.D.C.C. § 14-09-22 is affirmed.

A district court’s use of “willfully allowed to be inflicted” in the jury instructions for an allegation of child abuse under N.D.C.C. § 14-09-22 is not obvious error if counsel fails to establish the instruction is a clear deviation from an applicable legal rule under current law.

The North Dakota Legislature chose to enumerate two alternative means of committing child abuse under N.D.C.C. § 14-09-22 without intending to define separate elements or crimes. A jury is not required to unanimously agree upon which of the two alternative means of committing child abuse it believes the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt.

“Official detention” as defined by N.D.C.C. § 12.1-08-06(3)(b) precludes only “supervision on probation” and “constraint incidental to release.” The definition of “official detention” does not preclude custody while on probation.

State v. Sanchez 2023 ND 106
Docket No.: 20220335
Filing Date: 5/30/2023
Case Type: Appeal - Criminal - Sexual Offense
Author: McEvers, Lisa K. Fair

Highlight: The district court abuses its discretion when it allows testimony regarding statements made by a victim before the victim testifies and is subject to cross-examination regarding those statements.

Allowing testimony regarding statements made by a victim before the victim testifies and is subject to cross-examination regarding those statements will be considered harmless if the testimony of the witnesses was merely cumulative to that of the victim.

Substantial evidence existed to support the conviction and is summarily affirmed under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3).

Highlight: A district court order denying an application for post-conviction relief is summarily affirmed under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).

An attorney’s actions during voir dire are considered matters of trial strategy.

An unsuccessful trial strategy does not make defense counsel’s assistance defective, and we will not second-guess counsel’s defense strategy through the distorting effects of hindsight.
