Supreme Court of Alabama

Robert N. Barrett and Tracy C. Barrett v. Carlos Roman D/b/a Carlos Roman Roofing and Bobby Beach D/b/a Just Brick…

November 22, 20132013 Ala. LEXIS 167

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama held that the Madison Circuit Court exceeded its discretion in certifying the summary‑judgment orders for Roman and Beach as final under Rule 54(b), because the remaining claims against the other subcontractor were intertwined, creating a risk of piecemeal adjudication. Accordingly, the appellate court dismissed the Barretts’ appeal.
