Land Use Regulation Commission v. Tuck

GLASSMAN, Justice.

The defendant, Thomas T. Tuck, appeals a Superior Court, Somerset County, judgment denying his motion, pursuant to M.R. Civ.P. 60(b), 1 for relief from a judgment of contempt. The plaintiff, the Land Use Regulation Commission (LURC), cross-appeals the denial of its motion for further contempt sanctions. We vacate that portion of the judgment requiring the defendant to pay a $10,000 fine “to this court on or before October 15, 1982.” We deny LURC’s cross-appeal.
