Input (English): to the opposing party or for reasons of ‘undue delay.’” 953 So.2d at 1189. Furthermore, our supreme court explained the meaning of the term “undue delay.” Specifically, it stated: “Undue delay can have two different meanings in a case. First, the trial court has discretion to deny an amendment to a pleading if allowing the amendment would unduly delay the trial. Horton v. Shelby Med. Ctr., 562 So.2d 127, 130 (Ala.1989). Second, an unexplained undue delay in filing an amendment when the party has had sufficient opportunity to discover the facts necessary to file the amendment earlier is also sufficient grounds upon which to deny the amendment. Stallings [v. Angelica Uniform Co.], 388 So.2d [942,] 947 [ (Ala.1980) ]; see also Rector v. Better Houses, Inc., 820 So.2d 75, 78 (Ala. 2001) (<HOLDING>); Burkett [v. American Gen. Fin., Inc.], 607
