Toni 1 Trust, by Its Trustee Donald Tangwall, Appellant v. Barbara Wacker

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed dismissal of the trustee's complaint, holding that Alaska's statutory assertion of exclusive jurisdiction over fraudulent-transfer actions involving certain Alaska trusts cannot deprive Montana courts or federal courts of jurisdiction. The statute therefore did not render the Montana or federal judgments void for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The court also held that the appeal was reviewed de novo and that most additional arguments were waived for inadequate briefing.
