Indiana Court of Appeals
In the Matter of: A.C. v. State of Indiana
49A04-0912-JV-682
Juvenile. Reverses adjudication for committing what would be Class A misdemeanor resisting law enforcement if committed by
an adult. A.C.’s simple failure to stand, without more, amounts to passive inaction and seems analogous to the failure
to present one’s arms for handcuffing, which the Indiana Supreme Court has said does not constitute forcible resistance.
