Alaska Supreme Court

Ronald J. Seater v. Estate of Fred L. Seater and Lee N. Seater

April 10, 2020461 P.3d 421

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court held that the 2015 and 2017 easement orders were final judgments, making the appeal untimely, reviewed the interpretation of a prior order de novo, and found the trial court erred in defining the “high water line” as the extreme high tide line. The court vacated the 2018 orders and remanded for clarification using the mean high water line.
