Indiana Court of Appeals
Carey Lee Fleener, Jr. v. State of Indiana
No. 25A-CR-2776
Appeal from the Marion Superior Court, Judge Marie L. Kern and Magistrate Heather M. Dean-Barton. Affirming in part and reversing in part, the court upheld Fleener’s conviction for criminal confinement but found his conviction for domestic battery violated substantive double jeopardy principles, thus ordering it vacated. The court determined evidence supported the conviction for criminal confinement, noting Fleener’s actions during a confrontation with his former fiancé, which resulted in bodily injury. In evaluating double jeopardy, the court found Fleener’s conduct during a short timeframe constituted a single transaction, warranting the reversal of the domestic battery conviction. Chief Judge Tavitas authored the opinion, with Judges Weissmann and Foley concurring. Appellant’s attorney: Willow Thomas, Marion County Public Defender Agency, Appellate Division, Indianapolis, Indiana. Appellee’s attorney: Office of the Indiana Attorney General.

Indiana Court of Appeals
VoCare, Inc. v. AGS Capital, LLC, et al.
No. 25A-CC-2413
Appeal from the Hamilton Superior Court, Judge Michael A. Casati. VoCare, Inc. appeals the trial court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of AGS Capital, LLC and other investors. The court determined that the investors established a prima facie case for breach of contract due to VoCare’s non-payment on convertible promissory notes. VoCare’s arguments regarding the illegality of the notes and impossibility of performance were deemed waived and unpersuasive, as the trial court had no opportunity to address them. The court affirmed the trial court’s order. Judge Scheele authored the opinion, with Judges Bailey and Vaidik concurring. Appellant’s attorneys: Katherine M. Haire and Anthony L. Holton, Reminger Co. LPA, Indianapolis, Indiana; and Joseph S. Simms, Reminger Co. LPA, Cleveland, Ohio. Appellee’s attorneys: Jonathan D. Mattingly and Jeffrey N. Furminger, Mattingly Burke Cohen & Biederman LLP, Indianapolis, Indiana.

Craig and Kandi Kilkelly Hidde, FBT Gibbons, Indianapolis; Christopher Holding, Brian Timothy Burgess and Jesse Lempel, Goodwin Procter, Boston.
