Indiana State Police to Participate in Click It or Ticket Campaign

0

 May 6th thru 30th, 2016, Indiana State Police Troopers throughout the state will join officers from more than 250 state and local agencies in Indiana, as well as thousands more across the nation, in the federally funded Click It or Ticket campaign. This campaign also includes the Memorial Day holiday weekend and the federally funded Combined Accident Reduction Effort (C.A.R.E.) overtime project.

During this period, troopers will be raising awareness about the benefits of occupant restraints through education and enforcement, and utilizing high visibility patrols and sobriety checkpoints to help ensure the safest environment for all motorists on Indiana roadways.

According to the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, in 2015, there were 818 fatalities on Indiana roadways with 33 percent of those fatalities unrestrained.

“Statistics have shown that wearing a seatbelt and properly restraining children in a child restraint seat dramatically reduces the possibility of injuries and death from a traffic crash,” commented Indiana State Police Superintendent Doug Carter. “We are committed to ensuring everyone buckles up every time, all the time, to safeguard Hoosier’s while traveling throughout Indiana.”

The Indiana State Police remind motorists to:

  • Wear seatbelts and utilize child restraint devices.
  • Appoint a designated driver if you plan to drink alcoholic beverages.
  • Never ride with someone that has been drinking. Don’t let them drive. Be a friend and take the keys.
  • To report dangerous and/or impaired driving, dial 911.

Attorney Must Pay Parking Ticket

Scott Roberts for www.theindianalawyer.com

The Indiana Court of Appeals ruled that an attorney who was given a $20 parking ticket that ended up costing him $150 in late fees only needs to pay his ticket. The attorney sought $2,500 in damages and fees over the incident.

James Gilday parked on the street instead of his normal garage when going to work in October of 2012 because the entrance to it was blocked by a charity run. After he finished his work, he came back to find a $20 parking ticket because he did not pay the meter. He paid the fine on time, he presumed.

A month later, Gilday received a letter saying his citation remained unpaid, but he ignored it. The city was actually charging him a late fee, but the letter did not say that. Another letter a few months later said there would be an administrative hearing on his ticket, but he ignored that as well and did not show up to the hearing. The administrative judge entered a $150 default judgment against him. Gilday filed an action to review the administrative decision, asking the trial court to vacate the judgment, refund his ticket and give him no less than $2,500 in damages, but the trial court found the $150 fine was appropriate. Gilday appealed.

Judge John Baker wrote the decision in the case and began by noting this was the first case in which a parking ticket had been successfully appealed to the COA.

Baker wrote Gilday must have paid his ticket on time because the date on the check was within the time frame, and the city misplaced the envelope that had the postmark. There was no other evidence that disputes the fact. Because of that, the court had no legal authority to assess the late fee or demand the hearing.

Gilday claimed that a police officer directed him away from his normal parking spot, so he shouldn’t have to pay his parking fine, but Baker wrote that nobody forced Gilday to park where he did and not pay the meter.

Gilday also claimed the city of Indianapolis should have been sanctioned by the trial court because of the difficulty he had obtaining his record for the trial and the deficiencies of the versions of the record he obtained. However, the COA said it could not find evidence of any sanctionable behavior.

The case is James Gilday v. City of Indianapolis, 49A02-1506-CT-715.

Carter Qualifies for Nationals, Eagles finish Fourth

0

University of Southern Indiana Women’s Golf senior Anastasia Carter (Granger, Indiana) will conclude her collegiate career at the NCAA Division II National Championship in Denver, Colorado. The senior qualified as one of the top-three individuals on a non-advancing team going to the NCAA II National Championship Festival in Colorado.
Carter was in the clubhouse after her third-round 74 (+2) as the fourth individual, one stroke away from qualifying. With a triple bogey on her final hole, the University of California-Pennsylvania’s Carla Maestre dropped below Carter allowing the senior to move into third and punch her ticket to the NCAA II Championships. Carter is the first to represent USI women’s golf at the national championships.

Carter improved her score each of the three rounds with scores of 78, 76, and 72 in the final round to finish in 10th-place overall. Junior Allison Koester (Wadesville, Indiana) also finished in the top-20 with opening and closing rounds of 76. Koester finished in a tie for 15th with her three-round total of 235.

The Screaming Eagles moved into a tie for fourth place with Ashland University with a 306 on the final day. After an opening round of 305, USI dropped to fifth with a second round 326.

Senior Brittanie Garrison (Evansville, Indiana) and sophomore Taylor Howerton (Evansville, Indiana) ended the event tied for 23rd. Both carded 78s in the final round to finish with scores of 237. Rounding out the scores for USI was senior Molly English who carded a three-round score of 258, good enough for a share of 61st.

The defending national champion, University of Indianapolis, won the tournament with a three-round total of 895. Also advancing are Grand Valley State University and the University of Findlay with scores of 912 and 921, respectively.

The season is over for the team, while Carter moves on to the national championship round, which will take place at Common Grounds Golf Course in Aurora, Colorado. The NCAA II National Championship Festival kicks off at Mile High Stadium in Denver on May 16. The first round of the national championships tee off on May 18. The fourth and final round will take place on May 21.

LIBERTARIAN GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE SAYS VOTERS WANT CHANGE By Rex Bell

0
 Hagerstown — Less than 24 hours after voters of Indiana cast their ballot in the Democratic and Republican primaries, Rex Bell, Libertarian candidate for Governor, said the results send a clear message, especially on the Republican side.
“Clearly, the number of Republicans choosing not to cast a vote for Gov. Pence, even after they took the time to go to the polls, is quite telling of the dissatisfaction that is running through the Republican Party. I believe a lot of that dissatisfaction will carry over into the fall elections, and that bodes well for the Libertarians on the ticket,” Bell said.
Bell said the fact that voters from both traditional parties voted for change speaks volumes. 
“The voters embraced change in voting for Democratic Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and Republican candidate Donald Trump,” Bell said.
And, Bell, who is the chairman of the Wayne County Libertarian Party, is counting on the vote for change movement to continue in November.
“The voters are sending a signal that they don’t like the same old choices they were offered four years ago. Voting for Rex Bell is that change,” he said.

Southern Illinois earns 3-2 win over Aces in extra innings

0

UE to complete regular season this weekend

Another pitcher’s duel between the University of Evansville and Southern Illinois saw the Salukis take a 3-2 win in 9 innings over the Purple Aces softball team on Wednesday evening at Cooper Stadium.

Morgan Florey threw all nine innings for the Aces (22-24, 10-13 MVC) and was matched in the circle by SIU’s (31-17, 14-9 MVC) Brianna Jones.  Chandra Parr had two of the Aces’ six hits on the day while also scoring a run and knocking one in.  Leading SIU was Eyrika Brandenburg, who went 3-5 with a hit and RBI of her own.

Through her first three innings of work, Morgan Florey was stellar as the lone baserunner reached on a passed ball following a strikeout.  After notching a hit in the first frame, the second hit of the day for UE came in the bottom of the third as Michal Luckett belted a one-out double to right-center.  Next up was Chandra Parr, who hit it back up the middle to bring Luckett home and give UE a 1-0 lead.

Two batters later, Florey helped her own cause, bringing Parr home on a single of her own.  Southern Illinois came alive in the top half of the fourth, notching their first hit of the game.  The second hit of the inning was a big one as Shaye Harre belted a 2-run home run to right to tie the game up at 2-2.

The game would remain that way as the game headed into extra innings.  The final out of the 7th inning saw Susan Norris come close to walking it off, but was caught at the warning track.

Southern Illinois was able to load the bases up with no outs in the top of the 8th, but Morgan Florey buckled down.  She struck out two batters before forcing a fly out to finish off the top half of the frame.  The Salukis were able to score their third run in the ninth as Eyrika Brandenburg laced a single to right to score the game-winning run.

A trip to Chicago will mark the end of the regular season for the Purple Aces as they will face Loyola in a 3-game set on Saturday and Sunday.
