Indiana Court of Appeals
Andrew Nemeth Properties, LLC, and Andrew J. Nemeth v. William A. Panzica, Thomas C. Panzica, Philip E. Panzica, & NP3, LLC
23A-PL-1383
Civil plenary. Reverses the Marshall Circuit Court’s award of summary judgment in favor of William Panzica, Thomas Panzica, Phillip Panzica and NP3, LLC on Andrew Nemeth’s breach of contract claim and its bench judgment in favor of the defendants on Nemeth’s unjust enrichment claim. Finds that an LLC’s initial membership can be established by oral contract and that there exist genuine issues of material fact as to whether Nemeth and the Panzica Brothers orally agreed to form NP3 as equal members. Also finds that Nemeth was entitled to a jury trial on his unjust enrichment claim.

7^th Circuit Court of Appeals
United States of America v. Bryant D. Aron
22-2364
Criminal. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, Fort Wayne Division. Chief Judge Holly Brady. Affirms the district court’s conviction of Bryant Aron on the charge of possession of a firearm and ammunition as a felon in violation and its sentence of him to the statutory maximum of 10years in prison. Finds Aron was given sufficient notice of the court’s rejection of the plea agreement to give him the opportunity to fully litigate the basis for the four-level enhancement in the PSR for use of the firearm during another felony offense. Also finds that Aron’s arguments that the court improperly inserted itself into the plea negotiation process and abused its discretion by failing to provide a sound reason for rejecting the binding plea agreement are lacking in merit.
