State ex rel. Clark v. Dept. of Rehab. & Corr.

Summary

The Ohio Supreme Court denied the inmate’s request for a writ of mandamus and his claim for statutory damages because he failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence that the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction failed to comply with his public‑records requests. The Court held that Clark’s own evidence showed the records had been produced, and his self‑serving affidavit could not overcome that evidence.
