Idaho Supreme Court
In the Matter of the Estate of Victoria H. Smith, --------------------------------------------------- Vernon K…
July 7, 2026
Summary
The Idaho Supreme Court affirmed the district court's orders and judgment because Smith's appellate briefing failed to comply with the Idaho Appellate Rules, lacked cogent argument, and rendered his assignments of error too indefinite for review. The Court also denied Smith's requests for judicial notice because he did not augment the settled record as required. The Court awarded the personal representative attorney fees and costs because the appeal was frivolous, unreasonable, and without foundation.
