Alaska Supreme Court

Thomas Taffe and Devony Lehner v. First National Bank of Alaska

September 27, 2019450 P.3d 239

Summary

The court affirmed judgment for the bank, holding that the borrowers' fraud claims accrued no later than February 2010, when they knew the disputed tracts remained encumbered and entered a loan modification leaving the collateral unchanged. It also upheld the use of a pretrial evidentiary hearing, the denial of declaratory relief, and the attorney-fee award. No separate opinions were filed.
