Knott v. Laythe
Knott v. Laythe
Opinion of the Court
We are troubled by the filing and prosecution of an appeal in a case such as this where the matter can easily be remedied by a new notice at far less expense to the landlord and far less burden to the court system. We are also troubled by the failure of the landlord’s counsel to inform the court prior to oral argument and our questioning that the matter is moot. Because of these concerns
Although, when questioned at oral argument, counsel gave no satisfactory explanation for the prosecution of this appeal, counsel may, if he wishes, file an affidavit within thirty days of the date of release of this opinion setting forth facts showing why he should not be required to forego his fee.
Appeal dismissed.
The legal issue as to notice is, in our view, also frivolous.
