POST-CASE RECORD · COMPLETE, NOT SAMPLED · TO NOVEMBER 2026
The post-case record is printed complete, not sampled, because it is short enough to print whole. Since Broadhacker in 2007: no reported Indiana case has tested a swingers social club against any statute, ordinance or zoning code; no federal case in the Northern District of Indiana has done so; no St. Joseph County zoning action, council item or enforcement order concerning such a club has appeared in the county's published record; no Tribune item in the searchable record has named such a club on this ground; no county directory has listed one; no 2019 or any other ordinance pair has been introduced for this ground; and no lifestyle directory of the current record lists a club in Granger, Mishawaka or South Bend, the nearest listed Indiana clubs standing in Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Bloomington and Muncie. That is the entire post-case record for this ground. And the closing honesty line, printed whole as the checklist requires: a private scene that never collided with the record can be proved neither present nor absent from its silence. This section proves that no swingers club on Granger ground ever entered the newspaper record, the court record, the directory record or the ordinance record — and it proves nothing at all about what consenting adults did behind doors that never opened onto any of those records. The silence is a finding about the record. It is not a finding about the town.
