Hoggatt Dawn M. Boyd Fort Wayne, Indiana Law Office of Dawn M. Boyd Columbia City, Indiana IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF INDIANA Susan Tennant, August 28, 2018 Appellant-Defendant/Counter-Plaintiff, Court of Appeals Case No. 92A04-1710-CC-2474 v. Appeal from the Whitley Circuit Court Peaks & Valleys, Inc., and The Honorable Matthew J. Toni Staples, Rentschler, Judge Appellees-Plaintiffs/Counter-Defendants Trial Court Cause No. 92C01-1505-CC-201 Baker, Judge. Court of Appeals of Indiana | Mem. Dec. on Rehearing 92A04-1710-CC-2474 | August 28, 2018 Page 1 of 2 [1] We grant Tennant’s petition for rehearing for the limited purpose of addressing her argument that we erred by finding that the trial court’s order did not refer to modifications to the Project. We found that “as the trial court did not make any findings of fact or conclusions of law related to modifications under HICA, it appears that Tennant is raising this issue for the first time on appeal.” Tennant v. Peaks & Valleys, Inc., No. 92A04-1710-CC-2474, slip op. at 8 n.9 (Ind. Ct. App. July 6, 2018). [2] Tennant points out that the trial court did make findings of fact and conclusions of law about the modifications. It is true that the trial court mentioned modifications in its order—but the trial court did not make findings of fact or conclusions of law about the modifications under HICA. Rather, its conclusions of law about modifications to the Project clearly fall under its discussion of P&V’s breach of contract claim. Appealed Order p. 8. [3] Our original decision stands.
