From the web page of the Indiana Supreme court is a preview of a November 9 oral argument

Elizabeth Roumbos sued attorney Samuel Vazanellis and the Thiros & Stracci law firm (“the Law Firm”) for malpractice after they failed to file her negligence lawsuit within the statute of limitations. The Lake Superior Court entered summary judgment in favor of the Law Firm, finding Roumbos failed to prove she would have recovered on her negligence complaint if not for the Law Firm’s negligence. The Court of Appeals reversed, finding a genuine issue of fact as to the viability of Roumbos’s negligence claim. Roumbos v. Vazanellis, 71 N.E.3d 64 (Ind. Ct. App. Feb. 24, 2017), aff’d on reh’g (June 13, 2017), vacated. The Supreme Court granted Vazanellis’s petition to transfer and has accepted jurisdiction over the appeal, and Defense Trial Counsel of Indiana has entered an appearance as amicus curiae.
