James P. Devlin v. Horizon Bank, successor in interest to Salin Bank & Trust Company by merger
23A-MF-1986
Mortgage foreclosure. Affirms the Hendricks Superior Court’s amended judgment in favor of Horizon Bank, the successor in interest to Salin Bank & Trust Company, and its ruling to foreclose on the mortgage and its amended in rem judgment against James Devlin’s property. Finds that Devlin’s arguments, if adopted, would undermine good-faith dealings between lenders and debtors and would empower sureties to litigate any subsequent action of a debtor as “misconduct” entitling the surety to discharge. Also finds that Devlin’s position is not consistent with Indiana law.

David R. Benjamin v. State of Indiana
23A-CR-2367

Finally, finds that any error in the admission of the evidence was harmless.
