24-2825
Civil. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division. Judge Richard Young. Affirms the district court’s summary judgment order in favor of Reliance Standard Insurance Company against Karen Moratz’s lawsuit under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 for her disability coverage claim.

Attorney for appellant: Robert Saint. Attorney for appellee: Joshua Bachrach.

Criminal. Affirms Brandon Kenner’s conviction in Allen Superior Court of domestic battery, the revocation of his probation, Keener’s two-and-a-half years sentence for the domestic battery conviction and his suspended sentence being executed for the probation violation.
