Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided November 12, 1984No. 82-4584PublishedCited by 41 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

TATE, Circuit Judge:

This appeal, by a single notice of appeal, is from a single judgment in five suits that were consolidated for trial under Fed.R. Civ.P. 42(a). On the same day the notice of appeal was timely filed, the opposing parties in one of the five consolidated actions filed a timely motion to amend the judgment. Subsequently, pursuant thereto, an amended judgment was entered. No further notice of appeal was filed.

Under Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(4), the effect of this filing of a motion to amend the judgment was that “the time for appeal for all parties shall run from the entry of an order”…
