Indiana Court of Appeals
A.T. v. J.T.
No. 26A-PO-1428
Appeal from the White Circuit Court, Judge Jason A. Thompson. The court reversed the trial court’s decision to extend a protective order against A.T. for two additional years, finding insufficient evidence of a continuing threat to J.T. The court determined that there were no new threatening communications or behaviors presented at the extension hearing that had not been previously considered. Although J.T. cited past statements from A.T. as threats, the court noted that these did not rise to the level of a credible and present threat. As such, the protective order could not be extended based solely on prior circumstances. Judge Bradford authored the opinion, with Judges Bailey and Altice concurring. Attorney for appellant: Timothy P. Broden, Lafayette. Attorney for appellee: Michael D. Dean, Withered Burns, LLP, Lafayette.

Indiana Court of Appeals
Jesse Oglesby v. Unnamed Physician, et al.
No. 26A-CT-143
Appeal from the Vanderburgh Superior Court, Judge Thomas A. Massey. The court reversed the trial court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the defendants on Oglesby’s medical malpractice claim, holding that the trial court abused its discretion by striking the affidavit of an expert physician after allowing the defendants to introduce additional evidence shortly before the summary judgment hearing. The court found that the evidence raised genuine issues of material fact regarding whether the defendants were negligent, as it conflicted with the evidence supporting the presence of a prior anesthesia complication. Thus, summary judgment was deemed improper. Chief Judge Tavitas authored the opinion, with Judges Bradford and elix concurring. Appellant attorney: Emily A. DeVuono, Moore Law Group, PLLC, Louisville. Appellees attorneys: Nicholas G. Brunette, Reminger Co., L.P.A., Indianapolis; Benjamin J. Weigel, Clay A. Edwards, Morgan N. Blind, O’Bryan, Brown & Toner, PLLC, Louisville; Sarah N. Vrabel, O’Bryan, Brown & Toner, PLLC, Indianapolis; Ryan T. Wood, Kyle L. Childress, Barnes Maloney, PLLC, Louisville.

Tremain Vanness Cabell v. State of Indiana
No. 25A-CR-2719
Appeal from Vanderburgh Circuit Court, Magistrate Judge Ryan Reed. The court reversed Cabell’s conviction for Level 3 felony neglect of a dependent and adjudication as a habitual offender.

The court also found that the trial court erred in denying Cabell’s motion for mistrial. Judge May authored the opinion, with Judges Mathias and Felix concurring. Attorney for appellant: Yvette M. LaPlante, LaPlante Legal, LLC, Evansville. Attorneys for appellee: Office of the Indiana Attorney General.
