Aurora Healthcare, Inc. v. Sharon Ramsey, as Administratrix of the Estate of Mary Pettway, Sharon Ramsey, As…

Summary

The court dismissed the defendants' appeal as premature because the circuit court had not yet determined whether the arbitration agreement was valid, making the retroactivity issue contingent and nonjusticiable. It dismissed Ramsey's cross-appeal because the denial of her partial-summary-judgment motion was a nonfinal, nonappealable order that could not be made final through Rule 54(b). No separate opinions were filed.
