                                    JUDGMENTS





                             CHAPTER 1. GENERAL PRINCIPLES

  § 1. Personal Judgments

  U.S.2016. Com. (b) quot. in diss. op. Abortion providers challenged the constitutionality of a Texas
  statutory provision that required physicians performing abortions to have admitting privileges at a local
  hospital. After a bench trial, the district court ruled in favor of providers. The court of appeals reversed
  in part and remanded. Reversing, this court held that providers' post-enforcement, as-applied challenge
  to the provision in this action was not barred by claim preclusion based on a prior action involving many
  of the same parties that unsuccessfully asserted a pre-enforcement, facial challenge to the same
  provision. A dissent pointed out that the court in the prior action found that the evidence offered by the
  plaintiffs was insufficient, and argued that providers were precluded from bringing their claims in this
  action under Restatement of Judgments § 1, which explained that the ordinary rules of claim preclusion
  applied even if the party against whom a judgment was rendered was later in a position to produce better
  evidence. Whole Woman's  Health v. Hellerstedt, 136 S.Ct. 2292, 2335.



                           CHAPTER 2. VALIDITY OF JUDGMENTS

                        TOPIC  1. REQUISITES OF A VALID JUDGMENT

  § 7. Competency of the Court

  Wis.2016. Cit. in diss. op. Defendant filed a motion to reopen and vacate a first-offense operating-while-
  intoxicated civil-forfeiture judgment entered against her in Wisconsin, claiming that the judgment was
  void for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction because it should have been criminally charged as a second
  offense due to her prior conviction for driving while intoxicated in Minnesota. The trial court granted
  defendant's motion and voided the judgment. This court reversed and remanded with directions to
  reinstate the judgment, holding that the trial court lacked competency but retained subject-matter
  jurisdiction. The dissent argued that the judgment was void, noting that the distinction between subject-
  matter jurisdiction and competency remained unclear and confusing and had been applied inconsistently
  by courts, and that Restatement of Judgments § 7 used the terms interchangeably. City of Eau Claire v.
  Booth, 882 N.W.2d 738, 760-761.



                            CHAPTER 3. FORMER ADJUDICATION

                                  TOPIC   1. GENERAL RULES

  § 43. Effect of Judgment on Pending Action
