Description
The plaintiff, Karyn Ann Bain brought this action in the Eleventh Judicial District Court, Flathead County, to recover the unpaid balance due under the terms of a written promissory note. Although a jury trial had been initially requested by Bain, she later agreed to bifurcate the contract (promissory note) issues from the tort issues raised in her complaint and to try the contract issues in front of the court sitting without a jury. The defendants filed an action for declaratory judgment concerning the same contract and sought recovery of monies advanced to Bain. The District Court consolidated Bains collection actions with the declaratory judgment action. The District Court determined that the purpose for execution of the promissory note had been totally frustrated and, as a result, the remaining obligation of the defendants should be excused and the promissory note rescinded. The District Court then entered judgment in favor of the defendants and against Bain. Thereafter, Bain filed a Rule 59(g), M.R.Civ.P. motion to alter or amend the judgment, which motion was deemed denied by the expiration of the 45 day time limit. (Rule 59(d), M.R.Civ.P.) Bain now appeals the District Court judgment and the denial of the Rule 59 motion. We reverse and remand.
