Overview: Defendant's sentence was affirmed. Defendant's sentence was shorter than his original sentence by 45 years; furthermore, under his new sentence, defendant could be released without having to spend any time on probation. Therefore, the trial court did not violate Ind. R.P. Post-Conviction Remedies 1, § 10(b).

Overview: Because Ind. Code § 6-1.1-20-3.2 called for what amounted to a de facto election, and the State failed to show a compelling state interest to limit the right to participate in a petition/remonstrance proceeding to only those who owned real property within the political subdivision, § 6-1.1-20-3.2 was held unconstitutional.

|
Overview: Trial court did not err in ruling that property owners had a prescriptive easement over their neighbor's land, as he did not rebut the presumption that a prior owner's use of an access road over the neighbor's land was adverse for over 20 years, and the neighbor failed to establish that the prior or current owners had abandoned the easement.

|
Overview: Insured's claim that umpire chosen to decide insurance dispute was partial did not exist when responsive pleading was due in prior suit, and thus it was not compulsory counterclaim under Ind. R. Trial P. 13. Res judicata did not apply and the insured alleged an appropriate ground for setting aside appraisal, so summary judgment was improper.

Overview: An estate plan was proper under Ind. Code § 29-3-9-4. The primary goal of the statute was that a ward's assets be used to support him and his dependents during his lifetime, a goal this plan met, and an estate plan that put all of the ward's assets into a trust and that effectively rewrote his will was not improper under the statute.
