O’Connell v. Clay, No. 25S-MI-34, __ N.E.3d __ (Ind., Oct. 16, 2025).
Paternity by estoppel applies to grandparents’ visitation. Grandparent had standing under the Grandparent Visitation Act to petition for visitation with grandchild when custodial mother stipulated to the father’s paternity in an agreed visitation order.
Peters v. Quakenbush, No. 25S-PL-152, __ N.E.3d __ (Ind., June 19, 2025).
If a person “is required to register as a sex or violent offender in any jurisdiction,” that person must “register for the period required by the other jurisdiction or the period described in this section, whichever is longer.” I.C. § 11-8-8-19(f). This applies to a person residing, working, or attending school in Indiana even though that person committed no offense in the other jurisdiction that imposed the triggering registration requirement.
Thomas v. Foyst, No.25S-MI-148, __ N.E.3d __ (Ind., June 19, 2025).
