View this case - free  

Overview: In a suit against the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration, because Ind. Code § 4-13-2-14.2(a) unambiguously required that a contract with the State of Indiana be in writing, there was no merit to plaintiff's arguments that various conversations and practices created a material issue of fact as to whether there had been a contract.

View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion to file belated notice of appeal and/or belated motion to correct errors after he entered a fixed guilty plea to murder and related felonies in return for a 192-year sentence; his plea of guilty foreclosed any direct appeal and trial court properly advised him of options he had to seek relief.

View this case - free  

Overview: There was no unauthorized practice of law when form mortgage documents were prepared by lender's employees who were non-attorneys because directing or acting on matters of general knowledge, even if knowledge of rule of law, was not practice of law. Mere charging of fee did not transform permissible conduct into unauthorized practice of law.

Overview: Ten percent was added to a workers' compensation award under Ind. Code Ann. § 22-3-4-8(f) because the employer's arguments were disingenuous or trivial. The claimant was denied damages under Ind. R. App. P. 66, however, as there was no allegation that the arguments were deliberately presented so as to delay the claimant's receipt of benefits.

McElroy v. State, No. 49S02-0605-CR-174, SUPREME COURT OF INDIANA, May 2, 2007, Decided , May 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Sentence imposed was not improper because, although the trial court erred in finding that there was "great" risk that defendant would have committed another crime, and criminal history was not a valid aggravator, error was harmless. In the oral sentencing order and the later written statement, defendant received precisely the same sentence.

Overview: Summary judgment for student in claim arising from student's attempted intubation of patient was proper because student was not obligated to obtain consent herself or inquire into consent obtained by doctors.
