On April 5, 2011, the Minnesota Court of Appeals determined Kerrick Township was entitled to summary judgment on a road vacation dispute. A Township resident claimed he was entitled to personal service of notice the Town Board was going to consider a road vacation petition. In a published opinion, the Court of Appeals decided the resident was not entitled to personally served notice because he was not an “affected landowner.” An “affected landowner” is a person whose land abuts the road in question. Because “Third Street [did] not pass through, or even abut appellant’s land,” he was not entitled to personal service. Kerrick Township was represented by Paul D. Reuvers and Andrea B. Wing.
On February 17, 2011, a federal jury determined Kanabec County Deputies and a Transport Officer did not violate the plaintiff’s constitutional rights when they arrested him outside his residence on the belief a warrant existed for his arrest. Kanabec County was represented by Jason M. Hiveley and Andrea B. Wing.

The Minnesota Court of Appeals determined the City of Avon was entitled to summary judgment on a contract dispute. Respondent Nodland Construction Company, Inc. claimed it was entitled to a monetary judgment against the City under the terms of the construction contract. The City, on the other hand, maintained that under a separate written agreement, Nodland pledged any amounts owing under the construction contract as security for a failed development. The court determined the assessment security was an absolute guarantee of the developer’s obligation to pay the assessments and any claim Nodland had for the assessment security was against the developer. The City of Avon was represented by Paul D. Reuvers and Jason J. Kuboushek.
On January 14, 2011, a federal jury determined a Coon Rapids Police Officer did not use excessive force when he utilized his K-9 to apprehend the plaintiff. Coon Rapids was represented by Jason M. Hiveley and Amanda L. Stubson.
