Zeiler v. Reifschneider

Summary

The court vacated the contempt judgment and dismissed the appeal because Zeiler lacked standing to enforce a consent judgment entered in litigation to which he was not a party. The consent judgment imposed obligations on Zeiler's father but did not impose any enforceable obligations on Reifschneider, so Zeiler could not qualify as an intended third-party beneficiary with authority to pursue contempt. The court did not decide whether Zeiler could obtain relief under a different legal theory.
