June 25, 20102010 Ala. LEXIS 108
Summary
The court granted mandamus relief and directed entry of summary judgments based on State-agent immunity for Jones, Henderson, and Walter, but denied relief for Eubanks and Wilson. It held that the record established no genuine factual dispute concerning Jones's, Henderson's, or Walter's entitlement to immunity, while factual disputes concerning submission and receipt of Wilson's report precluded summary judgment for Eubanks and Wilson. The court reviewed the immunity-based summary-judgment denials under the de novo standard.
