Docket No.: 20220115
Filing Date: 11/10/2022
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Contracts
Author: Jensen, Jon J.

Highlight: Words are given their ordinary and popular meaning unless the words are used in a technical sense or given a special meaning.

The word “may” will only be construed as “must” where the content of the subject matter compels that construction.

Specific performance requires parties to perform their contractual promises, and therefore, is inconsistent with termination of the contract.

Specific performance is not an absolute right and equitable principles will be followed to determine if it is appropriate.

Troubadour Oil & Gas v. Rustad, et al. 2022 ND 191
Docket No.: 20220196
Filing Date: 11/10/2022
Case Type: Original Proceeding - Civil - Writ of Supervision
Author: Crothers, Daniel John

Highlight: This Court’s authority to issue supervisory writs is discretionary and is used only to rectify errors and prevent injustice in extraordinary cases where no adequate alternative remedy exists.

Whether the attorney-client privilege is waived depends on the circumstances of each case.

The discovery rules relating to work product do not apply to discovery of an expert’s information.

Disclosing a client or client representative as an expert witness is not a per se waiver of any privileges.

Docket No.: 20220044
Filing Date: 11/10/2022
Case Type: Appeal - Civil - Post-Conviction Relief
Author: Jensen, Jon J.

Highlight: A defendant’s ability to waive their right to a public trial knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily, as declared in State v. Martinez, 2021 ND 42, ¶ 13, 956 N.W.2d 772, is not retroactive in application to previous cases as it is neither a substantive rule nor a rule that qualifies as watershed implicating the fundamental fairness and accuracy of a criminal proceeding.
