Lord Genesh, Inc. ("Lord Genesh"); Bay Inn & Suites, LLC, of Foley ("Bay Inn"); and Rasik Patel (referred to collectively as "defendants"), appealed the grant of summary judgment in favor of Valley National Bank. The Alabama Supreme Court determined the circuit court's judgment was not a final judgment: the circuit court purported to enter a final judgment on October 6, 2021. However, the circuit court's October 6, 2021, order was void because defendants had prematurely filed a notice of appeal to the Supreme Court on October 4, 2021, thereby divesting the circuit court of jurisdiction to rule on the matters raised in the appeal. Because no final judgment was entered in this action, this appeal was dismissed. View "Lord Genesh, Inc. et al. v. Valley National Bank." on Justia Law
