Myron Timothy Yarbrough v. Steven D. Eversole

Summary

The court affirmed summary judgment for Perry because he supported his motion with an affidavit denying misrepresentation and Yarbrough filed no response. It reversed judgment on the pleadings for Eversole and the firm because Yarbrough alleged that they induced him to pay for legal services they knew were futile, a claim that did not require proof that the underlying criminal proceeding would have produced a more favorable result. The court remanded for further proceedings concerning the claims against Eversole and the firm.
