Vogt v. Madden
Court of Appeals of Idaho
713 P.2d 442 (1985)
- Written by Matt Fyock, JD
Facts
Vogt (plaintiff) had an oral sharecrop agreement with Madden (defendant) for the year 1979 to farm seventy acres of land owned by the Maddens. The parties renewed the agreement for the year 1980. Under their agreement, Vogt would cover certain expenses and some expenses would be shared by the parties. The net profits from the crops were to be divided equally. The Vogts filed suit for breach of a sharecrop agreement they alleged existed for 1981. A jury returned a verdict in the Vogts favor, and Madden appealed.
