Stephen A. Richardson and Vern M. Ball, Bloomfield, for appellees Stevens, Fike, Greene and Bibo.

Considered by REYNOLDSON, C.J., and McGIVERIN, LARSON, SCHULTZ and WOLLE, JJ.


WOLLE, Justice.

The plaintiffs Thomas and Ann Bridgman challenge the post-trial dismissal of their petition for foreclosure of a real estate contract. Because we find that the evidence and applicable law fully warranted entry of a decree of foreclosure, not dismissal of the plaintiffs' action, we reverse the decision of the trial court and remand the case with directions.

We review de novo this foreclosure proceeding which was filed and tried in equity.
