State ex rel. Siebold v. Columbus City Schools Bd. of Edn.

Summary

The Ohio Supreme Court dismissed the relator’s mandamus action as moot because the school board had already begun providing the interim transportation required by R.C. 3327.02(E)(2). The Court also held that the voluntary‑cessation exception to mootness does not apply to a mandamus action seeking performance of a statutory duty, and that the relator could not recover damages or attorney fees not pleaded in the complaint.
