Description
Jay and Gertrude Hulet (hereinafter referred to as Hulet) appeal from a judgment recognizing the prior right of R.T. Nahas Co. and Robert and Eva Nahas (hereinafter referred to as Nahas) to divert winter runoff water from Sinker Creek, a tributary of the Snake River, located in Owyhee County, Idaho. Hulet presents ten issues which can be consolidated into six contentions, as follows. (1) Hulets motion to dismiss, for failure to name the Department of Water Resources as a party, was improperly denied. (2) Several findings of fact concerning the size of Nahas appropriation are not supported by substantial competent evidence. (3) The award of costs to Nahas against Hulet in the amount of the fee for Nahas expert witness was improper. (4) The court should not have ordered that Hulet be responsible for costs incurred in the future by Nahas, in enforcing Nahas water rights. (5) Nahas appropriation for livestock water rights should not have been recognized because there was no physical diversion of water. (6) Neither actual nor punitive damages should be awarded in this case.
