Annotate this CaseBefore: BEEZER, BRUNETTI, and JOHN T. NOONAN, JR., Circuit Judges.
MEMORANDUM*
Casey appeals the district court's finding that the parties intended the written lease to be valid and intended to incorporate into the agreement the past practice of allowing Mosby to use the land for grazing and other activities. We review factual findings only for clear error and afford particular deference to the trial judge's credibility assessments. Fed. R. Civ. P. 52(a); Rozay's Transfer v.

The district court's findings are supported by substantial evidence and are not clearly erroneous.
