AFFIRMED.

Per Curiam.

Charlotte J. Skar, P.O. Box 2626, Fargo, N.D. 58108-2626, for plaintiff and appellee; on brief.

Henry J. Langer, self-represented, 7101 Antrim Court, Edina, Minn. 55439, defendant and appellant; on brief.

Nilles, Ilvedson, Plambeck & Selbo, Ltd. v. Langer

[¶1] Henry Langer appealed a district court order denying his motion for relief from a judgment awarding the Nilles Law Firm $60,881.23.  On appeal, Langer argues the district court erred in denying his motion for relief and finding the Nilles Law Firm complied with the procedural requirements for notice of entry of judgment under N.D.R.Civ.P. 58(b).  Langer filed four post-trial motions to vacate the judgment or for relief from judgment, and each motion raised this issue.  Langer appealed only the order denying his final motion.  We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(1) and (4), and order Langer to pay double costs under N.D.R.App.P. 38.
