Ohio Supreme Court

Durig v. Youngstown

October 16, 20252025 Ohio 4719

Summary

The Ohio Supreme Court held that a city does not preserve a political‑subdivision immunity defense by merely asserting that the complaint fails to state a claim, and it affirmed the trial court’s denial of the city’s motion to amend its answer because the city’s delay was unjustified and prejudicial. The court affirmed the Seventh District Court of Appeals judgment.
