David L. Arnett, Individually, and d/b/a Auto Annex, Inc. v. The Estate of Joel S. Beavins, By Its Personal Representative, Jill E. Beavins, and Stewart Properties, LLC
21A-EU-1484
Estate, unsupervised. Affirms the order in favor of the Estate of Joel S. Beavins, by its personal representative Jill E. Beavins, and Stewart Properties LLC granting in part motions to strike evidence submitted by David L. Arnett, individually and d/b/a Auto Annex Inc., and the order granting partial summary judgment in favor of the estate on the issue of whether Arnett is a member of Stewart Properties. Finds the Johnson Superior Court did not abuse its discretion in striking portions of Arnett’s designated evidence, including his affidavit and Charles Ryder’s affidavit and supplemental affidavit. Also finds the trial court did not err in granting partial summary judgment in favor of the estate regarding the ownership of Stewart Properties.

Court of Appeals of Indiana
Bhaktavatsala R. Apuri, M.D. v. Parkview Health System, Inc., Parkview Hospital, Inc., and Roy Robertson, M.D.
21A-PL-591
Civil plenary. Affirms the grant of summary judgment to Parkview Health System Inc., Parkview Hospital Inc. and Dr. Roy Robertson on a complaint for breach of contract, intentional interference with a business relationship and intentional interference with a contract brought by Dr. Bhaktavatsala Apuri. Finds Apuri did not designate evidence of a material factual dispute over whether he can overcome the presumption of adequate notice and hearing procedures, and the Allen Superior Court correctly determined the adequate notice and hearing procedures requirement was deemed satisfied. Also finds the appellees were immune from suit for Apuri’s claims, so the trial court correctly concluded they were entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
