Indiana Court of Appeals
M.A. v. Review Board of the Indiana Department of Workforce Development
20A-EX-160
Agency. Affirms the decision of the review board of the Indiana Department of Workforce Development affirming the decision of an administrative law judge that M.A. had insufficient wage credits to meet the statutory requirements to establish a claim for unemployment benefits.

Richard Jernagan v. Indiana University Health a/k/a Indiana University Health ACO, Inc.
20A-PL-41
Civil plenary. Reverses the Marion Superior Court’s entry of summary judgment in favor of Indiana University Health ACO Inc. against Richard Jernagan, finding that a genuine issue of material fact exists as to whether the delivery of a business card during the surgical registration procedure is sufficient to satisfy the meaningful notice requirement informing the patient that the doctor performing the medical procedure is an independent contractor. Also finds on cross-appeal that Jernagan’s response to IU Health’s motion for summary judgment was timely.
