NBS Consulting, Inc. dba On Point Management and Whitney Racine, Plaintiff and Appellee v. Peirce Harris aka Pierce Harris, Defendant and Appellant and All Other Occupants, Defendants

No. 20200203

Appeal from the District Court of Ward County, North Central Judicial District, the Honorable Gary H. Lee, Judge.

AFFIRMED .

Per Curiam.

Remington M. Kostenko and Dean A. Frantsvog, Minot, ND, for plaintiff and appellee; submitted on brief.

Pierce Harris, self-represented, Minot, ND, defendant and appellant; submitted on brief. NBS Consulting v. Harris No. 20200203

[¶1] Pierce Harris appealed from an order and a judgment evicting him from a property in Minot. Harris argues he was wrongfully evicted and improperly served. Harris failed to provide a transcript, which leaves us with little record to review. “If the record on appeal does not allow a meaningful and intelligent review of the alleged error, we decline to review it.” City of West Fargo v. Olson, 2007 ND 48, ¶ 1, 734 N.W.2d 342 (quoting State v. Stockert, 2004 ND 146, ¶ 13, 684 N.W.2d 605). Harris failed to provide us the opportunity to review his claims in a meaningful and intelligent manner. Therefore, we summarily affirm the district court under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(7).
