CASE NOTES

Appeal from Partial Judgment.

Where the court’s decision on a motion for partial summary judgment did not amount to an adjudication of defendant’s liability even though the court might ordinarily have to rule on the propositions involved after trial in reaching its ultimate conclusion of liability or nonliability, the decision did not serve as a final partial summary judgment such as is appealable to the Supreme Court. Twin Falls County v. Knievel, 98 Idaho 321, 563 P.2d 45 (1977).

Appealable Orders and Judgments.

An appeal may be taken from a judgment of contempt. Whittle v. Seehusen, 113 Idaho 852, 748 P.2d 1382 (Ct. App. 1987).

Nonappealable Orders and Judgments.

An order quashing service of summons is not an appealable order under this section. Silver Sage Ranch, Inc. v. Lawson, 98 Idaho 707, 571 P.2d 768 (1977).

Where in a declaratory judgment action brought by a fire insurer, the district court entered a partial summary judgment in favor of the insured, but the partial summary judgment fell short of fully adjudicating even one claim for relief requested under the insured’s counterclaim, the partial summary judgment was an interlocutory and nonappealable order. Glacier Gen. Assurance Co. v. Hisaw, 103 Idaho 605, 651 P.2d 539 (1982).

Time for Taking Appeal.

Where wife of counsel stated that she mailed a copy of the notice of appeal to opposing counsel 58 days after entry of the order appealed from, notice of appeal was timely served. Sines v. Blaser, 98 Idaho 435, 566 P.2d 758 (1977).

§ 13-202. Stay of proceedings pending appeal.

  1. Upon and after an appeal of a judgment or order of the district court in a civil action, the judgment or order appealed from, or any other order or proceeding in the action may be stayed by the district court or the supreme court as provided by rule of the supreme court.
  2. If a plaintiff in a civil action obtains a judgment for punitive damages, the supersedeas bond or cash deposit requirements shall be waived as to that portion of the punitive damages that exceeds one million dollars ($1,000,000) if the party or parties found liable seek a stay of enforcement of the judgment during the appeal.
  3. If the plaintiff proves by a preponderance of the evidence that a party bringing an appeal, for whom the supersedeas bond or cash deposit requirement has been waived, is purposefully dissipating its assets or diverting assets outside the jurisdiction of the United States courts, waiver may be rescinded and the bond or cash deposit requirements may be reinstated for the full amount of the judgment.
  4. The supersedeas bond or cash deposit requirements may also be waived in any action for good cause shown as provided by rule of the supreme court.

Section 5 of S.L. 2003, ch. 152 provides: “SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this act are hereby declared to be severable and if any provision of this act or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance is declared invalid for any reason, such declaration shall not affect the validity of remaining portions of this act.”

Reversal of Final Nonseverable Judgment.

Where a part of a final nonseverable judgment is reversed, a final judgment is thereafter not present, leaving a trial judge positioned so that he can modify any prior orders or partial judgments that have been previously entered, assuming nonapplication of the doctrine of law of the case. Hutchins v. State, 100 Idaho 661, 603 P.2d 995 (1979).
