N.B. v. Terwilliger

- 2021 ND 74
Syllabus
When a district court answers a jury's question on a point of law, it is further instructing the jury. No law requires a district court to give a jury an instruction on the authority to place property in a trust under N.D.C.C. § 30.1-29-09. Under N.D.R.Civ.P. 59(g), conformance to the evidence and the district court's instructions negates any assertion that the verdict was rendered under passion or prejudice. An inadequate jury award provides a basis for a new trial when it is without support in the evidence.
