Ohio Supreme Court

State ex rel. Adkins v. Cole

February 25, 2025179 Ohio St. 3d 63

Summary

The Ohio Supreme Court held that only the public‑information officer, Myers, was the proper respondent, denied Adkins's motion for rebuttal evidence, found the mandamus writ moot because the records had been provided, awarded $1,000 in statutory damages for the inmate handbook request, and denied statutory damages for the kite requests.
