Lester v. Lester

25AP-648

The trial court erred in dismissing plaintiff’s complaint for divorce on the basis of improper venue. The trial court erroneously determined Civ.R. 3(C)(9) was controlling over the other subsections of Civ.R. 3(C) and failed to determine whether Franklin County is otherwise a proper venue under the remaining subsections of Civ.R. 3(C). Judgment reversed.

Ross v. Berdyck

25AP-875

Trial court did not err in dismissing appellant’s complaint, without prejudice, for lack of personal jurisdiction over appellee. Appellee was not served with the complaint and summons; nor did he waive the service defenses by either his participation in the case or via any of his filings. Judgment affirmed.

State ex rel. Parente v. Indus. Comm.

24AP-652

The Industrial Commission of Ohio failed to satisfy its clear legal duty to calculate relator’s average weekly wage in a manner that does him substantial justice when it found an internal policy of the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation ("BWC") determinative of relator’s computation of wages without examining the individual circumstances of relator’s compensation as both owner and employee of the employer. We sustain relator’s objection to the magistrate’s decision and issue a writ of mandamus remanding the matter back to the commission to determine whether factors unique to relator’s employment justify a departure from the BWC’s internal policy.

State v. Woodley

24AP-678, 24AP-679, 24AP-680

Judgment affirmed. The trial court did not lack subject-matter jurisdiction over defendant-appellant’s criminal cases as a result of defendant-appellant’s filing of pro-se cases in federal court. Nor did defendant-appellant demonstrate a violation of his statutory or constitutional rights to a speedy trial. Each of the continuances signed by defense counsel tolled the time in which the state was required to bring defendant-appellant to trial under R.C. 2945.71(C)(2), even if defendant-appellant did not agree to the continuance or to waive his right to a speedy-trial. Finally, defendant-appellant did not demonstrate that he received ineffective assistance of counsel.
