The case has been affirmed with no accompanying opinion, referencing Rule 53(a)(1) and (a)(2)(F) of the Alabama Rules of Appellate Procedure. It cites multiple cases, including Ex parte Cranman, Ex parte Rizk, Wimpee v. Stella, and Wells v. Storey, all decided on November 24, 1999. Chief Justice Hooper and Justices Maddox, See, Lyons, and Brown concurred with the decision, while Justices Cook and Johnstone dissented. It is noted that the Supreme Court withdrew the Cranman opinion on June 16, 2000, and subsequently made changes to the opinions in Rizk and Wimpee, yielding different results. As of the publication date of this memorandum in Coar v. Children's Hospital of Alabama, the Cranman, Rizk, and Wimpee cases were still pending rehearing applications, and their opinions had not yet been published.
