Sharon Glenn v. Gordon Construction, Inc., et al.

Plaintiff filed suit against construction company for negligent repair of tornado damage to her home. Parties submitted an Agreed Order of Compromise, Settlement, and Dismissal which was signed by the trial court and filed on the same day it was received. The construction company retained new counsel and filed a motion to set aside the order. Plaintiff sought contempt because the construction company refused to comply with the Agreed Order. Months later Plaintiff issued execution against construction company after failure to comply with the terms of the Agreed Order and garnished over $11,000 from its bank account. The trial court denied a motion to quash execution filed by the construction company. The construction company appeals arguing that the agreed order could not have been entered after one of the parties withdrew consent for the settlement. We affirm the decision of the trial court.
