Supreme Court of Alabama
S&M Associates, Inc., and Doyle Sadler v. Players Recreation Group, LLC (Appeal from Jefferson Circuit Court…
April 12, 2024
Summary
The court affirmed the denial of S&M's request for additional appellate attorney fees and costs because the parties' stipulation already included the contractually recoverable fees and S&M did not pursue its claims in the prior appeal. It also affirmed the denial of Sadler's statutory fee request because the trial court's original judgment impliedly denied that request, and Sadler failed to challenge that ruling in the prior appeal. The court reversed the portion of the remand order addressing the LLC's later-recorded mortgage and remanded with instructions to set that portion aside.
