Ohio Supreme Court
State ex rel. Fenstermaker v. McConville
February 19, 20262026 Ohio 530
Summary
The Ohio Supreme Court held that R.C. 2969.25 does not apply to original actions filed in this court, dismissed the mandamus claim as moot for the records‑retention schedule, denied mandamus relief for the certified statements and cashbook because the relator failed to prove their existence, awarded $700 in statutory damages for an unreasonable three‑month delay in providing the schedule, and denied court costs due to the relator’s affidavit of indigency.
