Madsen v. Borthick

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that notice is required regardless of whether the suit is against the governmental entity or its employees and is a jurisdictional requirement to filing suit
• explaining that the doctrine of claim preclusion bars a cause of action if it “could and should have been raised” in an earlier action that resulted in a final judgment on the merits
• appellate courts have fundamental duty to give effect, if possible, to every word of a statute
• “[R]ule . 41(b) ... comprehensively define[s] a dis missal on the merits; not just rule 41(b) dismissals, but all dismissals.”
• the court decided that a statutory provision which eliminated the Department of Financial Institutions Commissioners’ liability as individuals for gross negligence was a change in the substantive law
• “Dismissals in which the merits could not be reached for failure of the plaintiff to satisfy a precondition do not ordinarily bar subsequent suits.” (quotation simplified)
