Montana Supreme Court
Heaven v. Weber
May 5, 20262026 MT 95
Summary
The court vacated the order declaring Heaven a vexatious litigant and imposing a pre-filing requirement because the District Court did not provide notice and an opportunity to be heard or substantively analyze the governing factors. It affirmed the denial of Heaven’s disqualification motions because they lacked the affidavit required by Montana law and affirmed the determination that the appellate record was sufficient. The matter was remanded for further proceedings on the vexatious-litigant and pre-filing issues.
