Summary

The Alabama Supreme Court reversed the trial court’s injunction order because the State Employees’ Insurance Board’s officials were not joined as necessary parties and were not properly subject to absolute immunity. The Court held that the Board’s officials must be joined in their official capacities to resolve the plan‑construction dispute, and remanded for amendment of the complaint.
