Niewind v. Carlson

OPINION

STONEBURNER, Judge

Chuck Niewind, d/b/a C & N Construction (Niewind), appeals from the denial of his motion for a new trial or, in the alternative, amended findings of fact on the issue of attorney fees awarded to him in this mechanic’s lien action. By notice of review, respondents Keith L. and Jane Lash Carlson, co-trustees of the Jane Lash Carlson Trust, (Carlsons) appeal from the denial of their motion for summary judgment. Because we conclude that Nie-wind’s prelien notice failed to comply with the requirements of Minn.Stat. § 514.011, subd. 1 (2000), we reverse.
