Court of Appeals of Indiana
Mandale Hamilton v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
23A-CR-818
Criminal. Affirms the denial of Mandale Hamilton’s motion to suppress. Finds the Hendricks Circuit Court did not err in finding that Officer David Shedrow had “legal authority” to pull over the driver of a Cadillac. Also finds the use of a K-9 for an open-air sniff cannot be said to have prolonged the traffic stop, so it did not implicate the Fourth Amendment or Article 1, Section 11 of the Indiana Constitution. Finally, finds that Officer Mark Christian’s removal of four screws to lower a panel on the dash to retrieve a gun that the officers knew was located in a “tight space” rendered the seizure of the gun unreasonable under Article 1, Section 11.

Estate of Gerald Everett Goldsberry v. Drake Air, LLC, by its member Brent L. Drake
23A-MI-1987
Miscellaneous. Affirms Morgan Superior Court’s judgment for Drake Air, LLC, by its member Brent L. Drake, for $50,000 following a bench trial. Finds the trial court correctly concluded that Bill Myrtle’s and Brad Huddle’s access to the helicopter on the day of the crash did not destroy the bailment between Drake Air and Gerald Goldsberry. Also finds that the trial court did not err when it concluded that the Goldsberry estate failed to demonstrate that the loss of the helicopter was not Goldsberry’s fault.
