Praegitzer (P) brought a trespass action against Kasper (D) for using P's hangar without permission. Kasper (D) filed a counterclaim against Praegitzer (P) for conversion of the jet fuel. Kasper (D) also filed a third-party claim against Curtright (D) for conversion of the jet fuel. Curtright (D) counterclaimed against Kasper (D) for trespass and conversion and filed cross-claims against Praegitzer (P) for indemnity and breach of contract. Everybody filed cross-motions for summary judgment on Kasper's (D) conversion claims. The trial court granted the motions of Praegitzer (P) and Curtright (D) and denied Kasper's (D) motion. The court then entered a judgment reflecting that outcome and dismissing Praegitzer's (P) claim against Kasper (D) as well as Curtright's (D) counterclaims against Kasper (D) and cross-claims against Praegitzer (P). Kasper (D) appealed, arguing that the trial court erred in denying his motion for summary judgment on his conversion claims and in granting Praegitzer's (P) and Curtright's (D) summary judgment motions.
