Peterson v. Pierce

No. 20130164

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Mara Pierce appealed from a money judgment entered by the district court following an eviction hearing.  Pierce argues the district court erred in concluding she did not make an effective rent payment by placing $1,400 cash in her landlord’s unsecured mailbox.  The district court found Pierce placed the cash in her landlord’s mailbox, but that the landlord did not receive it.  We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
