Ind. Decisions - Court of Appeals issues 1 today (and 5 NFP)

As of 1:30 PM today, no cases posted. As of 3:13 PM, however, the following had been posted:

For publication opinions today (1):

John Eversole v. State of Indiana - "As a result of our review, we believe evidence of Eversole’s good character, including his guilty plea, present an arguable case for a lesser sentence. However, at the same time, we find it difficult to ignore the serious nature of Eversole’s offense -- specifically, that his actions resulted in the death of another human being. Thus, ultimately, it is our opinion that the trial court arrived at an appropriate sentence after considering these factors. Additionally, we note the trial court followed the recommendation of Eversole’s Probation Officer in sentencing him to the advisory sentence of thirty years. Accordingly, we conclude the trial court appropriately sentenced Eversole."

NFP civil opinions today (1):

Termination of the Parent-Child Relationship of K.H. and R.M.: Billie Jo Hiner v. Whitley County Department of Child Services (NFP) - "Based on the foregoing, we find the trial court used the correct standard when entering its findings of fact, and there was sufficient evidence to support the trial court’s termination of Mother’s parental rights to K.H. and R.M."

D.C. v. State of Indiana (NFP)

William J. Cain v. State of Indiana (NFP)
