Flemming v. FlemmingNo. 20170366

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Kendel Flemming appeals from a district court order granting Amanda Fowler, formerly Amanda Flemming, primary residential responsibility of their two children and from an order denying his motion for a new trial. On appeal, this Court is limited to a review of the issues Flemming raised in his motion for a new trial. See Minto Grain, LLC v. Tibert, 2009 ND 213, ¶ 17, 776 N.W.2d 549. Flemming argues the district court erred in finding the best interest factors favored Fowler. The district court's findings were not clearly erroneous, and the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Flemming's motion for a new trial. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2) and (4).
