Kevin D. Albertson and Pamela L. Albertson v. Richard Cadwell and Lisa Cadwell
22A-PL-782
Civil plenary. Affirms partial summary judgment awarded to Richard and Lisa Cadwell on Kevin and Pamela Alberton’s complaint for declaratory judgment seeking an easement of necessity on the Cadwells’ real property. Finds that because the parties agreed at the time of the conveyance of the new parcel that the Albertsons would not have an easement across the Cadwell property, the Albertsons’ claim to such an easement now fails as a matter of law. Also finds the Hendricks Circuit Corut did not err when it entered partial summary judgment for the Cadwells on the Albertsons’ alleged easement of necessity.

In re: the Supervised Estate of Daniel Robinson, Tracy Robinson v. Ralph Robinson, et al. (mem. dec.)
22A-ES-854
Estate, supervised. Affirms the order disqualifying Tracy Robinson from serving as personal representative of the estate of Daniel Robinson and appointing a neutral third party. Finds the Elkhart Superior Court’s order is not void for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction, and it had jurisdiction over the question of whether to appoint a successor personal representative. Also finds that the record shows the trial court conducted multiple hearings in the case, and the parties were aware that the question of who would serve as personal representative and whether Tracy had misappropriated estate assets was before the court during those hearings.
