• McIntosh v. McEleveen
  Defendant: Attorney for the defendant/appellee, Sherriff Wayne F. McElveen. This appeal stems from the shooting death of Deputy Bill McIntosh. McIntosh was killed while off-duty when he answered a call for help. His family sued alleging negligence for failing to warn him of shots fired within his known location. The court found partially in favor of the plaintiff. The insurance company representing the sheriff department appealed. Upon review of the case and the testimony of several witnesses, the court finds that the trial court did not err in their decision. The judgment was affirmed.
