Luse Thermal Technologies, LLC v. Graycor Industrial Constructors, Inc. and BP Products North America, Inc.
23A-PL-633
Civil plenary. Affirms the Lake Superior Court’s grant of partial summary judgment in favor of Graycor Industrial Constructors Inc. on Luse Thermal Technologies Inc.’s request for damages and unjust enrichment claim; the grant of summary judgment in favor of BP Products North America Inc. on Luse’s claims based on the personal liability notice statute and unjust enrichment; the grant of BP’s motion to strike certain evidentiary materials; and the denial of Luse’s partial motion for summary judgment with respect to Graycor’s counterclaim relating to the recovery of certain contractual costs.
