Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

December 7, 2004.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Vincent J. Fahnlander, Eric L. Lipman, Mohrman & Kaardal, P.A., Minneapolis, MN, for respondent.

John M. Koneck, Brian S. McCool, Fredrikson & Byron, P.A., Minneapolis, MN, for appellant.

Considered and decided by SHUMAKER, Presiding Judge; LANSING, Judge; and FORSBERG, Judge.


OPINION

LANSING, Judge.

This appeal from the district court's entry of summary judgment in favor of the trustees of an employee-benefit trust fund presents the question of whether the trustees may file a mechanics' lien statement on behalf of union employees. Because the trustees are acting as the representatives of the employees and effectively stand in their shoes, we conclude they may file the claim, and we affirm the district court's ruling.
