View this case - free  

Overview: Where defendant did not make a prima facie showing that the prosecutor exercised his peremptory challenges in a racially discriminatory manner, as his sole claim was based on the numbers of Black jurors struck from the venire, a trial court properly denied his Batson challenge without requiring the prosecutor to state reasons.

View this case - free  

Overview: As an inmate's postconviction relief petition pursuant to Ala. R. Crim. P. 32 was deemed "filed" pursuant to Ala. Code § 12-19-70 on the date that the petition and the request to proceed in forma pauperis under Ala. R. Crim. P. 32.6(a) were submitted to the trial court, they were timely; the contrary holding in Clemons was overruled.

L.J.K. v. State, CR-04-0060, COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, March 3, 2006, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Application for rehearing was denied as the trial court correctly overruled defendant's objection to the admission of the testimony from two witnesses as hearsay, so long as the declarants were present at trial to testify, and hence, no violation of the Confrontation Clause would result.

McRae v. Booth, 2040969, COURT OF CIVIL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, March 3, 2006, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court properly exercised its equitable powers in siding with the decedent's son's desire to immediately inter the decedent's body, as such was consistent with public policy favoring a prompt and decent burial, the principle of a speedy interment, and recognition that a dead body must be laid away.

Norment Sec. Group v. Chaney, 2040845, COURT OF CIVIL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, March 3, 2006, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Because a trial court's order only resolved the issue of whether an employee gave sufficient notice to his employer of an alleged work-related accident under Ala. Code § 25-5-78 and did not determine disability or workers' compensation benefits, it was not a final judgment that would support an appeal.

Ross v. Blackburn, 2040825, COURT OF CIVIL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, March 3, 2006, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Although a landlord's failure to support his summary judgment motion with an Ala. R. Civ. P.56(c)(1) narrative summary of undisputed material facts properly supported a trial court's denial of his summary judgment motion, it did not warrant an Ala. R. Civ. P. 41(b) dismissal of the landlord's claim for unpaid rent.

View this case - free

View this case - free  

Overview: Circuit court erred in summarily denying an Ala. R. Crim.
