24.5.348 Certification of Decisions, Appeals to Supreme Court

MONTANA SUPREME COURT DECISIONS
Satterlee v. Lumberman's Mutual, 2007 MT 325 Although Workers’ Compensation Court orders generally contain a one-line entry certifying a judgment as final for purposes of appeal, the Montana Supreme Court requested the WCC designate in the future whether its certification for appeal falls under Admin. R. M. 24.5.348(2) or under Mont. Civ. P. Rule 54(b) as a judgment with remaining issues or parties.
 
MONTANA WORKERS' COMPENSATION COURT DECISIONS

Kessel v. Liberty [07/10/06] 2006 MTWCC 28 Since ARM 24.5.348(2) places no conditions on the Court’s certification for purposes of appeal, it would appear some discretion is granted to the Court in certifying matters as final for purposes of appeal.
