First Trust And Savings Bank Of Moville v. Guthridge

445 N.W.2d 401 (1989)

Facts

D's son was farming land in which D had a life estate and the son owned a remainder interest. The son gave a security interest in feed bunks to P in 1983 to secure a loan. The bunks were located on the land. P had a life estate in the land at that time. In 1985 the son conveyed by quitclaim deed his interest in the farm to D in satisfaction of two years of unpaid rents. P sued for replevin to recovery the bunks when the son defaulted on the loan. D contends they were fixtures and became her property with the quitclaim deed, but the court disagreed and issued a writ of replevin. D appealed.
