July 31, 20252025 ND 138

Summary

The North Dakota Supreme Court reversed the district court’s denial of Erickstad’s motion to correct his sentence and remanded, holding that a district court must give notice to the parties before amending a judgment under N.D.R.Crim.P. 35(a)(2). The decision emphasized that failure to provide such notice is an abuse of discretion and requires reversal.
