United States v. 397.51 Acres of Land
United States v. 397.51 Acres of Land
Opinion of the Court
On October 29, 1982, 692 F.2d 688, we remanded this case to the district court with directions that it act on a Rule 60(b) motion and present a supplemental record showing its action. We retained jurisdiction in the court of appeals.
Defendants-appellants Tab and Helen Dowlen have presented a letter saying that they will file no brief. Defendants-appellees, Faye Norton and Pauline Duncan filed a statement that they “have not and will not participate in any appeal of the [December 29] Order.” The United States has filed a statement that it relies on the position taken in its brief presented before the remand. The United States there said that the award of 8.3% interest is reasonable and not clearly erroneous. We have examined the record and the district court’s memorandum and order and conclude that the 8.3% interest award is proper. Accordingly, the amended judgment entered on December 29, 1982, is affirmed.
