Slow start to the New Year

The Eleventh's slow start to 2008 continues, with only one case released today after the MLK holiday. In Sason v. Shepherd, 2008-Ohio-173 the Lake County probate court denied a motion to strike a complaint, adding the Civ. R.P. 54(B) magic "no just reason for delay" language, In a 3-0 decision by O'Toole (Rice & Cannon agreeing) the court held it wasn't magic for appellants, since denial of a motion to dismiss a complaint is not a final appealable order.
