Hexcel Decatur, Inc. v. Vickers, 1031447, SUPREME COURT OF ALABAMA, February 25, 2005, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Under stare decisis, it was inappropriate to overturn an interpretation of Ala. Code § 25-5-11.1, barring a worker's retaliatory discharge for filing a workers' compensation claim, holding that a suit claiming a violation of this statute could be maintained even if an employer fired a worker before the worker filed a civil action seeking benefits.

Hobdy v. State, CR-03-2149, COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, February 25, 2005, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court did not err in denying defendant's motions for a judgment of acquittal as the jury could have reasonably inferred that defendant struck the victim with a box cutter or knife, and the evidence supported the jury's inference that defendant and the victim were involved in a dating relationship for purposes of Ala. Code § 13A-6-131.

View this case - free  

Overview: Debtor's security interest in the second of two cotton pickers, by his possession of the same and an assignment by his predecessor, granted it priority in the same over a bank, as no evidence was presented that said interest was ever unperfected. But, absent a record regarding the first cotton picker, the trial court's judgment was upheld.

Overview: Circuit court's failure to serve defendant with copies of its order granting the State's motion for partial dismissal of his Ala. R. Crim. P. 32 petition, and its orders denying his motions for discovery and for funds to retain experts, violated his due process rights, as such forced him to miss a deadline to file new discovery requests.

View this case - free  

Overview: Denial of defendant's petition under Ala. Code § 13A-5-9.1 for a sentence reconsideration was an appealable order.
