Murphy v. Hansen CA2/1
The trial court entered judgment pursuant to a settlement of litigation among Daniel K. Murphy, Joan and David Hansen, and Malibu Business Trust (MBT). The judgment established an escrow through which Murphy would transfer title to certain property known as “Lot 171” to MBT in exchange for MBT’s payment of $100,000 and a grant of an easement across MBT’s property to Murphy’s property. The court retained jurisdiction to enforce the judgment. After MBT failed to deposit the required funds and comply with orders to do so, the court issued an order extinguishing MBT’s right to Lot 171 and directing the court clerk to execute a deed transferring to Murphy the easement across MBT’s property. MBT appealed.
