Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange v. Grayson

BOLIN, Justice.

Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange (“PURE”), a Florida domiciled insurance exchange, obtained a judgment, entered upon a jury verdict, declaring that Peter Grayson was not entitled to coverage under the uninsured-motorist (“UM”) portion of an automobile insurance policy under which Grayson’s sister, Alice Gray-son, was a named insured. The Mobile Circuit Court granted Grayson’s motion to set aside that judgment on the basis that it was void for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. PURE now appeals. We reverse and remand.
