Roth v. Meyer

Summary

The court reversed the district court’s judgments and remanded for findings resolving ownership of the land, the timing and scope of any cattle conversion, and the proper damages. It held that adverse possession required proof of continuous adverse possession for the statutory period, that the cattle summaries were inadmissible because their supporting documents lacked admissibility and foundation, and that conversion damages had to comply with the governing damages statute. It also held the aggregate oral loans unenforceable under the statute of frauds. No separate opinions were filed.
