   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-2620
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Bright and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
   Civil Case - diversity - contract. Following jury's award of damages for
   breach of contract stemming from reclamation of a taconite mine, district
   court did not err in submitting jury instruction concerning material breach
   and inclusion of language relating to notice of termination because it did
   not affect substantial rights. Argument relating to doctrine of mistake is
   raised for the first time on appeal. District court did not abuse its
   discretion in declining to limit damages based on Restatement (Second)
   of Contracts, section 351(3) to foreseeable losses.
