Finstad v. Gord

John and Lorie Finstad appealed the grant of summary judgment that declared James and Wendy Gord owners of farmland in Ransom County. Upon review of the arguments on appeal, the Supreme Court concluded a quitclaim deed executed by the Finstads and delivered to Beresford Bancorporation and People's Holding Company clearly and unambiguously gave Beresford all of the Finstads' right, title, and interest in the land. Therefore, the Court concluded that a subsequent quitclaim deed executed by Beresford to the Gords gave them ownership in the land.View "Finstad v. Gord" on Justia Law
