Indiana Court of Appeals
State of Indiana v. Christopher Johnson
No. 26A-CR-1368
Appeal from the Carroll Circuit Court, Judge Shane M. Evans. The court reversed the trial court’s decision to modify Johnson’s felony conviction to a misdemeanor, ruling that Johnson had not completed his probation as required by the plea agreement. The court determined that the plea agreement clearly outlined a full year of probation following his six-month executed sentence, which Johnson had not fulfilled. Therefore, the trial court erred in granting Johnson’s petition. Judge Bradford authored the opinion, with Judges Bailey and Altice concurring. Attorneys for appellant: Office of the Indiana Attorney General.

Indiana Tax Court
Indiana American Water Company, Inc. v. Indiana Department of State Revenue
No. 24T-TA-00011
The court addressed the application of two tax exemptions—manufacturing equipment and environmental quality exemptions—claimed by Indiana American Water Company, Inc. (INAW) concerning its production of tap water. The court found that the manufacturing equipment exemption applied to certain equipment used in the initial stages of production (the “first mile”) but could not determine the status of equipment in the last mile of the water delivery system. The court noted that production extends to the last point where water is treated or pressurized, which involves equipment like booster stations. Regarding the environmental quality exemption, the court stated that genuine issues of material fact existed concerning whether the purchases were predominantly used for compliance with environmental laws, denying motions for summary judgment from both parties. Judge McAdam authored the opinion. Attorneys for petitioner: M. Patrick Yingling and David P. Dorner, Reed Smith LLP, Chicago; Michael Rato, Reed Smith LLP, New York. Attorneys for respondent: Office of the Indiana Attorney General.

7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Center for Gestalt Development, Inc. v Charles Bowman
No. 25-3336
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division, Judge Richard L. Young. The court affirmed the district court’s summary judgment in favor of Bowman and Jean-Marie Robine in a copyright infringement claim brought by the Center for Gestalt Development. The court determined that the Center’s copyright over a collection of unpublished manuscripts did not extend to the article “Psychopathology of Awareness” itself, which was previously licensed to Bowman and Robine by the copyright holders before the Center acquired it. As such, when the Center obtained the copyright, it was subject to the existing license permitting Bowman and Robine to publish the article. Judge Scudder authored the opinion, with Judges Pryor and Maldonado concurring.
