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.
