Muir Woods Section One Association, Inc., and Nantucket Bay Homeowners Association, Inc. v. Claudia O. Fuentes, Marion County Treasurer; Julie Voorhies, Marion County Auditor; and Joseph P. O’Connor, Marion County Assessor

20A-CC-1144

Civil collection.

Reverses the Marion Superior Court’s dismissal of the amended complaint and petition for mandate of Muir Woods Section One Association Inc. and Nantucket Bay Homeowners Association Inc. Finds that although the cases “arises under” Indiana tax law, there has been no final determination by the Indiana Board of Tax Review, so administrative remedies have not been exhausted and the Indiana Tax Court does not have jurisdiction. Remands to the trial court for a determination on the homeowners associations’ mandamus action to compel the Marion County treasurer, auditor and assessor to act.

In re: Kevin T. Hall

20-3245

Petition for a writ of mandamus. Issues a writ of mandamus directing the Southern Indiana District Court to rescind the transfer order of Kevin Hall’s case to the Middle District of Florida after Hall was transferred from a federal prison in Indiana to a federal prison in Florida, thus returning the case to the Southern District of Indiana. Finds that Hall’s case is similar to Ex parte Endo, thus requiring transfer back to Indiana. Also finds that mandamus is the proper vehicle for obtaining review of a transfer decision. Finally, finds that Hall does not have an adequate remedy available through his pending motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, and that Hall did not need to show prejudice before pursuing his venue challenge.
