Bolden v. Wise Alloys, LLC, 2070084, COURT OF CIVIL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, September 19, 2008, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the trial court's judgment was rendered, but never input into the State Judicial Information System, it was never entered; accordingly, pursuant to Ala. R. Civ. P. 58(c) (2006), the judgment was a nonfinal judgment that would not support an appeal.

View this case - free  

Overview: After alleged settlement between parents and school was approved, parents argued for first time, in their motion to vacate, that their attorney lacked express authority to settle case under Ala.
