Indiana Court of Appeals
Chuck W. Adams, Charles E. Howard, et al. v. ArvinMeritor, Inc., et al.
49A02-1406-PL-465
Civil plenary. Reverses the grant of ArvinMeritor and state defendants’ Trial Rule 12(B)(6) motions to dismiss the plaintiffs’ claim for unpaid wages because Adams, a Department of Correction inmate, has a private right of action to pursue his wage claim. Affirms summary judgment to the defendants on his personal injury claim because Adams had an available administrative remedy but failed to pursue it to completion. Concludes Adams was allowed to participate in a hearing on a number of motions through the submission of documentary evidence. Judge May dissents.
Michael Fish v. 2444 Acquisitions, LLC
49A02-1502-MF-100
Mortgage foreclosure. Reverses the grant of a motion for relief from judgment filed by 2444 Acquisitions LLC. The agreed judgment is not void under Ind. Trial Rule 60(B)(6), and because 2444 Acquisitions filed its motion for relief more than one year after the judgment, it is not entitled to relief under Trial Rule 60(B)(3) for misrepresentation, fraud, or fraud on the court.
