State v. Jackson

30558

Appellant’s convictions are not against the manifest weight of the evidence. The trial court did not commit plain error by overruling appellant’s motion to sever charges because the offenses were connected in a continuous course of criminal conduct and the evidence supporting the offenses was simple and direct. Trial counsel was not ineffective for failing to renew appellant’s pretrial motion to sever because there was no likelihood that had the motion been renewed at trial, it would have been granted or changed the outcome of the trial. Judgment affirmed.

Williamson v. Farmers Ins. Co.

30717

In a case involving the interpretation of an insurance policy, the trial court erred in granting summary judgment to the insurer on the entirety of the insured’s complaint. The record establishes that the insured is not entitled to damages for lost rent or stolen personal property as a matter of law, but genuine issues of material fact remain relating to whether the insured can recover the other damages sought by the complaint. Judgment affirmed in part and reversed in part.
