The Indiana Order Confirming Plan (IOC) is a process developed by the Indiana Supreme Court to ensure that all orders entered the state's courts are accurate, consistent, and timely. The IOC requires local courts to submit proposed orders to the Indiana Supreme Court for review and confirmation. This process helps ensure that all orders entered the state's courts are in compliance with both state and federal laws. The IOC includes three different types of orders: Final Judgments and Decrees, Interlocutory Orders, and Non-Final Orders. Final Judgments and Decrees are court orders that are issued after the conclusion of a trial or hearing on the merits of a case. Interlocutory Orders are orders that are issued during the course of a case, prior to the final judgment or decree. Non-Final Orders are orders that are issued prior to the start of a case or during the course of a case, but which do not necessarily have a direct bearing on the outcome of the case. Once a proposed order is submitted to the Indiana Supreme Court, the court reviews the order for accuracy and legal sufficiency. If the order is found to be in compliance, the court will issue a confirmation order. The confirmation order is then sent to the local court, which must enter the order as entered by the Indiana Supreme Court. This confirmation process helps ensure that all orders entered the state's courts are in compliance with both state and federal law.
