United States v. Joseph and Sheila Yennie
Opinion
United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 22-3557 ___________________________ United States of America Plaintiff - Appellee v. Joseph Howard Yennie; Sheila Ann Yennie Defendants - Appellants Nick J. Novak; Abraham Algadi; Paul Perry; Grant Friese; Jay Strande; Dean Weis; Jayne Krause; Peoples State Bank of Plainview; City of Pine Island Defendants ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the District of Minnesota ____________ Submitted: April 17, 2023 Filed: April 20, 2023 [Unpublished] ____________ Before KELLY, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.
Joseph and Sheila Yennie challenge the enforcement of a federal tax lien against real property they own. See 26 U.S.C. § 7403(a). Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that there are no material facts in dispute and the government is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. 1 See Odom v. Kaizer, 864 F.3d 920, 921 (8th Cir. 2017) (reviewing a grant of summary judgment de novo); Nelson v. Nelson, 183 N.W. 354, 355 (Minn. 1921) (explaining that Minnesota follows the common-law “rule of separate property rights of both husband and wife” and has not adopted “[t]he doctrine of community property”). We accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court.2 See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________
We deny both pending motions.
The Honorable Wilhelmina M. Wright, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota. -2-
