Lyndale R. Ivy v. Barry Privett (mem. dec.)
20A-CT-1463
Civil tort. Affirms the grant of Barry Privett’s motion for summary judgment. Finds Lyndale Ivy has failed to demonstrate reversible error when the Henry Circuit Court did not rule on his motions to strike. Also finds that Privett’s failure to be more specific in the designation of evidence does not render summary judgment inappropriate. Finally, finds the trial court did not err in granting summary judgment to Privett as to Ivy’s claims of negligence, willful and wanton misconduct, or intentional infliction of emotional distress.
