S-18-1067 TNT Cattle Company, Inc. v. Dianna Fife (Appellant)
Buffalo County District Court, Judge William T. Wright
Attorneys: Jack W. Besse (Fangmeyer, Aschwege & Besse, P.C., for Appellant) — Siegfried H. Brauer (Attorney for Appellant)
Civil: Termination of farm lease
Proceedings Below: The court denied Appellee an injunction due to mootness, determined that the lease terminated in December 2017, and awarded Appellee damages.
Issues: Whether the court erred in 1) awarding Appellee a money judgment against Appellant when Appellant did not own the land and was not the landlord; 2) failing to find that the written lease agreement was terminated and became a year-to-year oral lease in 2015 that was properly terminated by written notice; 3) determining that the written lease agreement was for 11 years rather than 10 years; and 4) awarding Appellee a $51,332.26 money judgment
