Pickering v. Sanchez

Summary

The Idaho Supreme Court affirmed the judgment for the landlords, concluding that substantial and competent evidence supported the finding that they had not engaged in deceptive conduct under the Idaho Consumer Protection Act. The court also rejected the tenant’s collateral-source challenge because the appellate record was inadequate and upheld the $10,000 unjust-enrichment award because the tenant failed to show entitlement to additional compensation and did not challenge independent grounds supporting the ruling. The court awarded the landlords attorney fees attributable to the inadequately supported collateral-source issue and costs on appeal.
