                                Thiel v. Thiel
                                No. 20200002

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Kyle Thiel appeals from district court orders entered in August and
September 2019 denying his motions for continuance and for appointment of a
parenting investigator, and from a divorce judgment entered in November
2019. He argues that the district court erred in failing to grant his motions for
continuance to allow him to retain substitute trial counsel; erred in failing to
grant his motions for appointment of a parenting investigator; and erred and
violated his due process rights by making various evidentiary and procedural
rulings at trial. Because the district court did not abuse its discretion, we
summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(4).
