24A-CT-1686
Civil tort. Dismisses without prejudice Russell and Judith Bernacchi’s appeal of LaPorte Circuit Court Judge Thomas Alevizos’ order denying the Bernacchis’ motion for summary judgment against Kenneth Rutz and Yon Lindborg’s complaint.

Attorney for appellants: Martin Lucas. Attorney for appellees: R. Brian Woodward
