Morley v. Morley
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the district court confirming the division of property owned by Cynthia, Kenneth, and Daniel Morley, as set forth in a referees report to the court, holding that the district court did not err.
Daniel brought a complaint for partition of real and personal property seeking to partition real property in which he inherited an undivided one-third interest. The other two tenants in common were Cynthia and Kenneth. Appointed referees determined how the property should be divided, and the district court entered an order confirming the referees' division of property. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court (1) did not err by adopting the referees' report without holding an evidentiary hearing on Cynthia and Kenneth's objections; and (2) did not err by accepting the referees' division of costs.
