Supreme Court of Alabama
David G. Bronner, as Secretary-Treasurer of the Public Education Employees' Health Insurance Plan v. James B. Burks Ii
December 22, 2017270 So. 3d 262
Summary
The Supreme Court of Alabama dismissed a permissive interlocutory appeal from the denial of summary judgment because the trial court certified a controlling question that did not address the plaintiffs' actual claim. The plaintiffs had abandoned or waived their challenge to the premiums, while the defendants' arguments addressed whether plaintiffs received a dollar allotment rather than whether one spouse was denied an accrued monthly insurance-coverage benefit. The court therefore did not reach the merits of the constitutional claims.
