Ortiz Ex Rel. Ortiz v. Gavenda (1999)

Smith v. Mayo Clinic Rochester, 435 F.3d 913 , 915–17 (8th Cir. 2006); Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 124 (Minn. 1999) (stating that the appointment of a wrongful-death trustee is an ex- ercise of the principle that “those entitled to recovery as a result of the wrongful death shall be represented by the trustee without compro- mise”).

But Ortiz does not discuss the expert-review-affidavit requirement. 590 N.W.2d at 122-23.

Consistent with the text, the Minnesota Supreme Court has held that “[a] plaintiffs failure' to commence a wrongful death action as a court-appointed trustee ... precludes her from maintaining the action.” Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 120 (Minn. 1999) (affirming the dismissal of a widow’s § 573.02 claim on behalf of her deceased husband because she had not been appointed as a trustee); Sheeley v. City of Austin, 2015 WL 506293 , at *3 (D.

Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 122-23 (Minn.1999).

The district court intervened, without the knowledge of Illinois Farmers, to appoint Miklas as trustee in an attempt to save the settlement, but had no authority to do so. “[L]imitation provisions in a statutorily created cause of action are jurisdictional.” See Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 122 (Minn.1999).

A wrongful-death claim is “purely statutory, as common law recognized no such actions on the theory that a claim for personal injuries died with the victim.” Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 121 (Minn. 1999).

Ortiz, 590 N.W.2d at 122 (wrongful-death statute of limitations “ ‘conditions the right’ ”) (quoting Berghuis v. Korthuis, 228 Minn. 534, 536 , 37 N.W.2d 809, 810 (1949)); Cashman, 215 Minn. at 467 , 10 N.W.2d at 391 (wrongful-death action created by statute that is “condition affecting the right rather than the remedy”).

See, e.g., Harms v. Oak Meadows, 619 N.W.2d 201, 203 (Minn.2000) (concluding that the statutory deadline for filing a petition for a writ of certiorari in an unemployment case is a jurisdictional requirement); Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 122 (Minn.1999) (observing that "the limitation provisions in a statutorily created cause of action are jurisdictional, requiring dismissal [by a district court] for failure to comply — they do not have flexible parameters permitting t…

No. 623, 392 N.W.2d 216, 220-21 (Minn.1986) (internal quotation marks omitted); see also Stewart v. State, 764 N.W.2d 32, 34 (Minn.2009) (holding that an untimely filed petition for postconviction relief “should not be considered on the merits”); Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 122 (Minn.1999) (“[T]he limitation provisions in a statutorily created cause of action are jurisdictional, requiring dismissal for failure to comply... .”).

Stewart did not assert or establish any of the statute’s exceptions; thus, we conclude that his petition is untimely and should not be considered on the merits. 2 See Ortiz v. Gavenda, 590 N.W.2d 119, 122 (Minn.1999) (“[T]he limitation provisions in a statutorily created cause of action are jurisdictional, requiring dismissal for failure to comply.”) Affirmed. 1 .

It cited our recent decision in Ortiz v. Gavenda, where, in the context of a claim made under the Wrongful Death Act, we held that compliance with the limitation period was a condition precedent to maintaining an action. 590 N.W.2d 119, 122 (Minn.1999).

Jensen, 399 N.W.2d 85, 91-92 (Minn.1987) (concluding that failure to have a valid trustee appointed in a wrongful-death action rendered the suit a nullity).
