Court of Appeals of Indiana
Charitable Allies, Inc. v. Down Syndrome Association of Northwest Indiana, Inc. (mem. dec.)
22A-PL-1111
Civil plenary. Affirms the removal of Charitable Allies’ notice of an attorney’s lien in an underlying action between Charitable Allies’ former client, Down Syndrome Association of Northwest Indiana Inc., and former officers of DSA. Finds Charitable Allies has waived its argument regarding the Lake Superior Court’s purported lack of subject matter jurisdiction, and its assertion that the trial court lacked personal jurisdiction over it is meritless and not supported by cogent reasoning or authority. Also finds the trial court’s removal of the notice of lien is not reversible error. Finally, finds the totality of Charitable Allies’ work product to the Court of Appeals demonstrates not just weak legal positions, but positions “utterly devoid of all plausibility.” Remands to the trial court with instructions for it to determine and award to DSA a reasonable amount for its appellate attorney fees in this appeal.
