¶23Laney v. Uecker

¶24Civil No. 970076

¶25PER CURIAM.

¶26[¶1] Shawn Uecker appeals from the trial court judgment awarding Denise Laney custody of their minor child.  The trial court’s custody determination is a finding of fact which will not be set aside on appeal unless it is clearly erroneous.  Huesers v. Huesers, 1997 ND 33, ¶6, 560 N.W.2d 219; Ternes v. Ternes, 555 N.W.2d 355, 357 (N.D. 1996).  We conclude the trial court’s custody determination was not clearly erroneous.  The judgment is affirmed under Rule 35.1(a)(2), N.D.R.App.P.
