Indiana Supreme Court
State of Indiana v. Franciscan Alliance, Inc. f/k/a Sisters of St. Francis Health Services, Inc., et.al.
24S-PL-118
Civil plenary. Reverses a Johnson Superior Court jury verdict awarding $680,000 plus interest to Franciscan Alliance and $1,500,000 plus interest to SCP. Finds the trial court committed reversible error in admitting Franciscan’s and SCP’s evidence of damages related to the Fairview Road intersection closure, as that evidence led to the jury awarding both parties non-compensable damages. Also finds that because each appraiser provided a different amount owed to Franciscan for its 0.632-acre strip of land, the court remands for proceedings to determine the just compensation owed to Franciscan for the land taken. Attorneys for appellant, State of Indiana: Attorney General Todd Rokita, Deputy Attorneys General Frances Barrow, Benjamin Jones. Attorneys for Appellee, Franciscan Alliance , Inc. Paul Vink, Seema Shah. Attorneys for Appellee SCP 2010 – C36 – 018 , LLC: Andrielle Metzel, Ryan Simatic.
