Two possible issues:

1. Do you have the relationship declared in the models?

class Note < ActiveRecord
belongs_to :user
end

class User < ActiveRecord
has_many :notes
end

2. If @user is a nil object, it will throw an error. Set @user to
the current_user in your before_filter. If there is a possibility of
hitting that point with a nil user, then change the line to read
something like this:

@note = @user ? @user.notes.find(params[:id]) : nil

which is a shorter way of saying

if @user.nil?
@note = nil
else
@note = @user.notes.find(params[:id])
end
