Thuma v. Kroschel

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding allegation that city mayor acted “ultra vires,” without more, could not support an action for declaratory judgment because there was no genuine, adversarial conflict
• stating that a declaration “limited” to the fact that the defendant “acted ultra vires” in his capacity as mayor did not create a genuine conflict in tangible interests
• stating that an appellate court may review otherwise nonappealable interlocutory orders, such as an order denying summary judgment, on an appeal from a judgment so long as they affect the judgment
• stating that the legal right required to support a justi-ciable controversy need not amount to a cause of action, but it must consist of a “bona fide legal interest which has been, or ... is about to be, affected in a prejudicial manner” (quotation omitted)
