Indiana is suing IBM to recover more than $400 million it paid the company before Daniels canceled the 10-year contract in 2009 amid complaints about the automated welfare system.

IBM's countersuK says the state still owes IBM about $100 million. It is illogical to find the Statute is intended to allow any governor to apparently make relevant decisions and potentially admissible statements in support of the State's own lawsuit and not be questioned," Judge David Dreyer wrote. IBM contends Daniels could provide details others couldnt Indiana's attorneys argued it's common for high-ranking government officials to stay out of cMt suits. "The governor's intent and state of mind are issues of fact In this case," the order said. Without the governor's testimony, both sides could be forced to caJ other witnesses to speculate about his intent which would be inadmissible.

Dreyer wrote. 1 don't think this wfl be likely to stand up told reporters Friday when asked about the ruling. This is really not about me or one governor.
