Indiana Court of Appeals
Cary R. Coleman v. State of Indiana
47A01-1506-IF-659

Civil plenary. Affirms in part and reverses in part the ruling that both the Alan D. Nelson Living Trust and Amici Resources liens had priority over Sabine Matthies’ lien.

Chauncy Rhodes v. State of Indiana
49A02-1503-CR-173
Criminal. Reverses conviction of Class D felony possession of marijuana with a prior conviction of possession of marijuana. The trial court abused its discretion when it admitted evidence obtained from an inventory search of Rhodes’ vehicle. The police officer’s testimony was insufficient to prove the inventory search performed complied with official police policy. Judge Barnes concurs with separate opinion; Judge Crone dissents with separate opinion.
