UNPUBLISHED CIVIL OPINIONS FROM THE MINNESOTA COURT OF APPEALSJeremy J. Keith,Relator, vs. North Homes, Inc., Respondent, Department of Employment and Economic Development, Respondent. TOUSSAINT, Chief Judge Jeremy J. Keith brings a certiorari appeal from an unemployment law judge's (ULJ) determination that he quit without good cause. Because substantial evidence supports the ULJ's decision, and the ULJ did not err in determining that relator did not have good cause to quit, we affirm. A05-2347 In re the Marriage of: Judy Marie Creen, petitioner, Respondent, vs. Michael Thomas Creen, Appellant. WILLIS, Judge In this marital-dissolution proceeding, pro se appellant husband argues that the district court (1) lacked jurisdiction over the proceeding; (2) abused its discretion when it denied husband's requests for an order compelling discovery by respondent wife; and (3) abused its discretion when it divided the parties' property because it considered husband's criminal record in the process and inequitably distributed the marital property. Because we conclude that the district court did not lack jurisdiction and did not abuse its discretion, we affirm. A06-103 Kristin Elizabeth Fischer, petitioner, Appellant, vs. Scott Bruce Cottington, Respondent. RANDALL, Judge. Appellant-wife challenges the district court's order terminating spousal maintenance, denying modification of child support, awarding respondent-husband reimbursement of medical and educational expenses, quashing subpoenas, denying an evidentiary hearing, and awarding respondent conduct-based attorney fees. Because the district court correctly applied the law and properly exercised its discretion, we affirm on all issues. A06-329 Marjorie Ann Roggeman, petitioner, Respondent, vs. Ben Edward Roggeman, Jr., Appellant. WRIGHT, Judge On appeal from the district court's denial of appellant-husband's motion to modify or terminate respondent-wife's spousal maintenance, husband argues that the district court abused its discretion when it found that the parties' changed circumstances do not necessitate modification or termination of husband's maintenance obligation. We remand. A06-1053 In the Matter of the Civil Commitment of: Ben Braylock TOUSSAINT, Chief Judge Appellant Ben Braylock challenges his indeterminate commitment as a sexually dangerous person (SDP), arguing that (a) the evidence was insufficient to meet the statutory requirements for commitment as an SDP; (b) the SDP statute is unconstitutional because it is void for vagueness; and (c) he presented sufficient evidence of an available less-restrictive alternative to indeterminate commitment. Because we observe no error in the trial court's determinations on the statutory elements or on the constitutionality of the statute, we affirm. A05-1947 In the Matter of the Risk Level Determination for R. L. S. KALITOWSKI, Judge By writ of certiorari, relator challenges the administrative law judge's order affirming the End of Confinement Review Committee's classification of him as a risk level III offender, arguing (1) the End of Confinement Review Committee exceeded its authority under the statute by assigning him a risk level III when his Sex Offender Screening Tool score would lead to a presumptive risk level II; and (2) the evidence does not support the determination that relator should be assigned a risk level III. We affirm. |
