The Lake County Board of Commissioners and Lake County Council (collectively, “the County”) sued the State of Indiana and others, seeking a judgment declaring that because two Lake County probation officers are state employees, the State is required to represent and indemnify them in pending litigation. The Marion Superior Court granted the State-related parties summary judgment, concluding that the County is responsible for paying the costs of defense and indemnification of its probation officers. The Court of Appeals affirmed. Lake Cty. Bd. of Commissioners v. State, 170 N.E.3d 1104 (Ind. Ct. App. 2021), trans. pending. The County petitions this Court to accept jurisdiction over the appeal.
