Reasons

• Per ATTREP, J. (DUFFY, J., and YOHALEM, J., concurring): The Court of Appeals decided to affirm the district court's dismissal of the Plaintiff's complaint with prejudice due to the Plaintiff's failure to provide clear arguments or legal authority to support his claims of error on appeal. The Plaintiff did not adequately develop his arguments or indicate how the alleged errors were preserved for review. The Court emphasized that it is not their duty to review undeveloped arguments or to speculate on what the Plaintiff's arguments might be (paras 1-3).
