Supreme Court of Alabama.

Rehearing Denied March 28, 2003.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

J. Steven Wilkes and Rodney E. Nolen of Sirote & Permutt, P.C., Birmingham, for appellant. Jeffrey M. Grantham and Brannon J. Buck of Maynard, Cooper & Gale, P.C., Birmingham, for appellee.


HOUSTON, Justice.

Omega Leasing Corporation ("Omega") appeals from the Jefferson Circuit Court's refusal to domesticate a default judgment in Omega's favor obtained in a Virginia trial court—and upheld by the Virginia Supreme Court—against Movie Gallery, Inc. ("Movie Gallery"). The Jefferson Circuit Court held that the issue of personal jurisdiction was not "fully and fairly litigated" in Virginia. We disagree, and we reverse and remand.
