Thomas DeCola v. Norfolk Southern Corporation, Inc.
── Thomas DeCola v. Norfolk Southern Corporation, Inc. ──
Case No.: 23S-PL-00358
Court: Indiana Supreme Court
Date: December 08, 2023
Author: Justice Geoffrey Slaughter
County of Origin: LaPorte
Category: Civil
Decision: Dismissed
Appellate jurisdiction here is premised on the trial court’s entry of a
final judgment. But the court’s entry—the denial of plaintiff’s summaryjudgment motion—was not final because (among other reasons) it did not
resolve all claims as to all parties. Thus, there was no final judgment. We
grant transfer, dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction, and remand.
I
Through a subsidiary, defendant, Norfolk Southern Corporation,
owned property in LaPorte County, Indiana. In 2019, Norfolk fell
delinquent on its property taxes.
