Empire Auto Group v. Gerald A. Whittaker (mem. dec.)
20A-SC-397
Small claims. Affirms the Marion Small Claims Court’s judgment in favor of Gerald Whittaker. Finds that because Whittaker did not breach the contract, Empire was required to return the vehicle and pay for the repairs or to return Whittaker’s $4,000 down payment. Also finds Empire did neither and, thereby, breached its duty to Whittaker. Thus, finds the small claims court did not err in entering judgment for Whittaker on Whittaker’s breach of contract claim and Empire’s counterclaim.
