Courts - Indiana Supreme Court to Hold Oral Argument Tomorrow at IU Law-Bloomington

From the release:

The Indiana Supreme Court will hold an oral argument in the Moot Court Room of the Indiana University School of Law in Bloomington at 12 p.m. on Tuesday, January 30, 2007, Chief Justice Randall T. Shepard announced today.

The appeal being heard is Richard Brown v. State. Following a jury trial in the Marion Superior Court, Mr. Brown was convicted of three counts of class D felony criminal confinement and three counts of class D felony identity deception in connection with the appellant's telling victims they would win a prize if they would leave their clothing at the appellant's residence. The Court of Appeals reversed the confinement convictions and affirmed the others in Brown v. State, 848 N.E.2d 699 (Ind. Ct. App. 2006), vacated. The Supreme Court has granted a petition to transfer the case, thus vacating the opinion of the Court of Appeals, and has assumed jurisdiction over the appeal.

Attorney Joel Schumm, of Indianapolis, will represent Mr. Brown and Deputy Attorney General Kathryn Stein will represent the State of Indiana.
