Bekken, Judge. AFFIRMED. Per Curiam. Donald James Alexander, pro se, 2081 22nd Street Northeast, Martin, N.D. 58758. James J. Coles, Coles Law Firm, P.C., P.O. Box 2162, Bismarck, N.D. 58502-2162, for plaintiff and appellee Intel-Foods. Intel-Foods Corp. v. Alexander No. 20020112 Per Curiam. [¶1] Donald Alexander has appealed from a March 1, 2002, order denying his motion for a new trial. After a judgment was entered granting foreclosure of security interests on various items of Alexander's personal property, Alexander moved for a new trial on the basis of newly discovered evidence. The trial court denied the motion. [¶2] Because the alleged newly discovered evidence was available to Alexander prior to trial, we conclude the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion for a new trial. See N.D.R.Civ.P. 59(b)(4). The remaining issues raised by Alexander on appeal are irrelevant and frivolous. Accordingly, we affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(1) and (4). [¶3] Gerald W.
