Supreme Court unanimously rules void judgments must be challenged within reasonable time under Rule 60(b)(4)

In Coney Island Auto Parts Unlimited v. Burton (Jan. 20, 2026), the Supreme Court resolved an 11-1 circuit split, holding that motions to vacate void judgments under Rule 60(b)(4) must be filed within a reasonable time. The ruling rejected the long-standing majority view that void judgments could be challenged at any time without deadline.
