Indiana Court of Appeals

John Matthew Ford v. Britani L. Ford (mem. dec.)
23A-DR-1903
Domestic relations. Affirms the Boone Superior Court’s post-dissolution order modifying John Ford’s child support obligation from $200 weekly to $1,250 weekly for his minor children, who are in the primary custody of Britani Ford. Finds the trial court’s order modifying the father’s child support obligation is not clearly erroneous, as the court did not overstate the father’s income when it calculated his child support obligation.

Brian Keith Dorman v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
23A-CR-2243
Criminal. Affirms Brian Dornan’s convictions and sentence in Orange Circuit Court for two counts of dealing methamphetamine, as Level 4 felonies. Finds the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it admitted chain of custody documents under the Business Records exception to the rule against hearsay. Also finds Dorman’s sentence of 12 years of incarceration on each of the two counts, with the sentences to run concurrently, is not inappropriate in light of the nature of his offenses and his character.

Daniel Scott Burton II v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
23A-CR-1606
Criminal. Dismisses Daniel Burton’s appeal of his nearly three-year aggregate sentence for domestic battery, a Level 6 felony, and resisting law enforcement, a Class A misdemeanor. Finds that Burton waived his appeal and was not entitled to appeal his sentence.
