Olsen v. Johnston
Montana Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Morris
¶1 Appellants Kristy K. Johnston (Johnston) and Dave Johnston (Dave) appeal from an order of the Fourteenth Judicial District Court, Meagher County, that granted summary judgment to Appellee Judy D. Olsen (Olsen). The District Court determined that Olsen and Johnston had contracted for Olsen to purchase Johnston’s interest in real property that they jointly owned as tenants in common. The court awarded specific performance to Olsen under the contract. We affirm.
¶2 We address on appeal only whether the District Court properly concluded that Olsen and Johnston had formed an enforceable contract.
