Cathy Jo Robertson v. State of Indiana

Summary

The court held that the limitations period for the State’s claims to recover misappropriated public funds under Indiana Code section 5-11-5-1(a) began when the Attorney General received the State Board of Accounts’ final, verified report, making those claims timely. It further held that the Crime Victims Relief Act claim was governed by the discovery rule and was untimely because the State knew or should have known of its injury when it received the preliminary report. The court affirmed dismissal was properly denied as to Counts I and II, reversed as to Count III, and remanded. No separate opinions are included in the record provided.
