Holkesvig v. Edison
No. 20150266
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Randy Holkesvig appeals from a judgment dismissing his complaint against the State and disciplinary counsel Brent Edison and Kara Johnson. He also appeals from a district court order denying his motion for relief from the judgment and orders denying motions filed after appealing the dismissal of his complaint. The district court dismissed Holkesvig’s complaint under N.D.R.Civ.P. 12(b), concluding it lacked subject matter jurisdiction because Holkesvig did not comply with the procedural requirements established in Holkesvig v. Rost , 2015 ND 67, ¶ 4, 861 N.W.2d 488. Holkesvig moved for relief from the judgment and the district court denied his motion because Holkesvig failed to comply with N.D.R.Ct. 3.2 and N.D.R.Civ.P. 60. Holkesvig filed additional motions after appealing the dismissal of his complaint. The district court denied the motions, concluding it lacked jurisdiction because Holkesvig filed the motions after he appealed the earlier order dismissing his complaint. Holkesvig argues the district court erred in dismissing his complaint because a petition for rehearing was pending in Rost and a mandate had not been issued when the State moved to dismiss. He also argues the court erred in denying his motion for relief from the judgment and motions filed after appealing the dismissal of his complaint. We have recently addressed these arguments in Holkesvig v. VandeWalle , 2016 ND 107. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(4), (6), and (7).
