““ ‘When reviewing findings of fact and conclusions of law of a district court, sitting without a jury, this Court has repeatedly held such findings and conclusions will not be disturbed if supported by substantial evidence and by the law . . . When reviewing evidence it will be viewed in the light most favorable to the prevailing party in the district court, and the credibility of witnesses and the weight assigned to their testimony is for the determination of the District Court in a nonjury trial. (Citations omitted.)’ ” Citing Luppold v. Lewis (1977), 172 Mont. 280, 284 , 563 P.2d 538, 540 .”
