Smith v. Nationwide Mut. Ins. Co.
| 17AP-245 | Judgment affirmed. The trial court did not abuse its discretion when it granted appellee’s motion to stay pending arbitration and referred appellant’s claims to arbitration. The arbitration clause in the parties’ contract is not unconscionable and appellant’s claims of fraud and material breach of the agreement do not defeat appellee’s right to have the arbitration clause enforced. | Horton | Franklin |

State v. Dixon
| 17AP-884 | Judgment affirmed. The trial court made all of the necessary findings at the sentencing hearing to impose consecutive sentences and consecutive sentences were not clearly and convincingly unsupported by the record. The defendant also failed to show that he was prejudiced and denied a fair and just hearing after the trial court ordered his removal from the sentencing hearing for being an obstreperous defendant. | Klatt | Franklin |
