Case Synopsis
The court considered whether a mining company’s failure to pay federal claim maintenance fees, required to avoid forfeiting an unpatented mining claim, rendered a dispute over superior title moot. The court found that since the mining claim was forfeited under federal law, the dispute over superior title was no longer actionable and moot.
