Householder v. Republic [8/6/01] 2001 MTWCC 41 Irrespective of the parties agreement and stipulation, the Court will not enter a judgment purporting to bind a non-party since the non-party has not been afforded basic due process. Even if the judgment is unenforceable, the judgment would be a chimera and the Court declines to create such a monster. |
