The document is a memorandum decision and order from the District Court of Idaho regarding a breach of contract case between Walter N. Sauls and Ray Luchi. The plaintiffs, Sauls, sought to recover a $3,000 earnest money deposit after claiming that Luchi breached their agreement to sell a house by entering into another contract for the same property. The jury initially ruled in favor of Luchi, but the court granted Sauls' motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, allowing them to recover their earnest money based on Idaho law, which states that buyers can reclaim deposits if the seller fails to provide consideration.
