Ensey v. Mini Mart, Inc.

Montana Supreme Court

Decided April 10, 2013No. DA 12-0339Published

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Wheat

¶1 Ezzie Ensey (Ezzie) appeals the District Court’s order granting defendants Mini Mart, Inc. and John Does I-III’s (Mini Mart) motion to dismiss her amended complaint and finding § 39-2-915, MCA, constitutional. We affirm the court’s decision to grant Mini Mart’s motion to dismiss, but we set aside the court’s determination of the constitutionality of § 39-2-915, MCA. Because we find that the court lost its authority to consider Ezzie’s amended complaint once she agreed to arbitration, the court also lost its authority to consider her constitutional challenge.
