Description
TROUT, Justice. This is an appeal from a legal malpractice action brought by Fairway Development Company (Fairway) against the law firm of
Petersen, Moss, Olsen, Meacham & Carr (Petersen). Fairway filed suit against Petersen on December 12, 1991 alleging Petersen
committed malpractice by failing to appeal tax claims through the proper administrative channels. The district court dismissed
Fairway's malpractice claim on summary judgment. The district court ruled Fairway suffered "some damage" when Fairway's tax
assessment claims were dismissed on November 3, 1988. The district court found Fairway did not bring its malpractice claim
before the two-year statute of limitations ran on November 3, 1990. Therefore, Fairway's suit was time barred by the statute
of limitations. We affirm.
