Rondy's Inc. v. Tractor & Equipment Co.

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM *

Plaintiffs, Rondy’s, Inc. and T.A.G., Inc. together form the F/V ALSEA FISHERIES PARTNERSHIP (collectively “Al-sea”). Alsea appeals from the grant of *659summary judgment in favor of defendant Tractor and Equipment Co., d/b/a NC Machinery Co. (“NC”). Alsea argues on appeal that the district court erred in two of its conclusions: (1) that there was no evidence of overreaching; and (2) that it had failed to raise a triable issue with respect to its claims of gross negligence and fraudulent concealment. Alsea also challenges the district court’s order denying its motion for reconsideration of summary judgment and its motion to allow filing of a second amended complaint.

After careful consideration of the issues presented on appeal, both in the briefs and in oral argument, and having conducted a de novo review of the grant of summary judgment, we agree with the analysis and conclusions reached by the district court in its order granting and denying the motions for summary judgment entered October 10, 2001.

We further conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motions for reconsideration of summary judgment and to allow filing of a second amended complaint entered on November 9, 2001.

AFFIRMED.
