Wilson v. Sanders, 2019 UT App 111 (June 26, 2019)

The appellants sought to challenge the trial court’s denial of their Rule 60 motion to vacate a judgment that was entered after a jury trial.  The court of appeals concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the appeal because the notice of appeal did not specifically identify the order denying the Rule 60 motion.  Although the notice of appeal included language stating that the appeal was taken from the final judgment and orders subsumed in it, the Rule 60 motion was not subsumed in the final judgment because it was decided a week after the judgment was entered.
