Summary

The Alabama Supreme Court granted Alfa Mutual’s petition for a writ of mandamus, holding that the insurer has a clear right to realign the parties and opt out of the trial without first waiving its subrogation rights. The Court reversed the trial court’s denial of Alfa’s motion and ordered the lower court to vacate that order.
