Overview: Because common issues were intertwined in the parents' claims against a driver, his house mate, the insured, the insured's brother, the insured's company, and the insurer, the trial court erred in certifying the summary judgments against the insured, the insured's brother, the insured's company, and the insurer as final under Ala. R. Civ. P. 54(b).

View this case - free  

Overview: Summary judgment for former employer in former employee's appeal of denial of unemployment claim was error because, based on competing affidavits, a material fact dispute existed as to whether former employee's attempt to rescind his resignation was accepted, and thus whether he voluntarily left his employment pursuant to Ala.

Johnson v. Strain, 1071028, SUPREME COURT OF ALABAMA, November 21, 2008, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the tenants unambiguously requested a hearing, the trial court erred in not affording them an opportunity to be heard on their Ala. R. Civ. P. 59(g) motion for a new trial; consequently, the judgment denying their motion for a new trial could not be affirmed based on the harmless-error rule.
