01-2918 Land Trust Management v. Williams

By: dmc-admin//May 6, 2002//

Listen to this article

Land Trust Management appeals from the trial court’s order dismissing its eviction action because its trustee, who is not a lawyer, could not commence or prosecute an action on its behalf in small claims court. The respondents, Ron and Christine Williams, have failed to file a brief. The trust argues that its full-time authorized employee can commence and prosecute or defend a small claims action on its behalf.

This court agrees and therefore reverses the order and remands the action with directions.

This opinion will not be published.

Dist III, Burnett County, Taylor, J., Cane, C.J.

Attorneys:

For Appellant: Patrick R. Coughlin, Frederic

For Respondent: Ron & Christine Williams, Siren
