Case Caption: Maria Turnbull (Appellant/Defendant,) vs. Sheldon Turnbull (Appellee/Plaintiff)Case Number: S. Ct. Civ. No. 2009-0092Date: 03/01/2011Author: Hodge, Rhys S. Citation: Summary:

The Court holds that because the Superior Court's factual findings and conclusions of law show the basis for its finding of contract liability, and the evidence sufficiently supports its finding, the Superior Court did not err in finding Maria Turnbull liable to Sheldon Turnbull based on an oral agreement between the two parties. The Court also held that the Superior Court erred when it held that Sheldon could recover expenses associated with work performed after Maria terminated her agreement with Sheldon on May 27, 2007. Last, the Court held that the Superior Court's factual findings and conclusions of law are insufficient to review the court's damages award because it is unclear whether Sheldon Turnbull was awarded damages for expenses that accrued after May 27, 2007.
