Supreme Court of Alabama

Ex Parte Amanda Holderfield. (in Re Amanda Holderfield v. State of Alabama).

July 1, 2016255 So. 3d 743

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama held that a motion to modify or set aside a restitution order functions as a motion for a new trial under Rule 24.1, thereby tolling the time for filing a notice of appeal. The Court reversed the Court of Criminal Appeals’ untimely dismissal and remanded for further proceedings.
