How courts have described this case

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

• stating that “Bjorklund presented an unusual factual scenario that emerged from a dispute about the ownership of shares in a family-run corporation” and that “[a] dispute over ownership alone does not show necessity under Bjorklund”
• explaining that eviction actions are summary proceedings that are intended to adjudicate only the limited question of present possessory rights to the property and that parties generally may not litigate related claims in an eviction proceeding
• stating that “a party attempting to stay an eviction action must provide a case-specific justification for granting a stay” and that “the district court is not obligated to grant a stay even when the party does provide a case- specific reason”
• discussing the district court’s “considerable discretion” to expand or to limit the scope of an eviction action
• “Resolving a challenge to the validity of the foreclosed mortgage is not essential to an eviction action.”
• denying a request to stay eviction proceedings where the Hansons did not seek an injunction, had not “taken much action at all” in the related litigation, and did not file a lis pendens
