Whitehurst v. Perry Township

Douglas, J.,

dissenting. In his opinion affirming in part and dissenting in part in the court of appeals proceeding in the case at bar, Judge Deshler said that “ * * * the failure of the trial court to address the defendant’s motion for leave to file a complaint and rendering it ‘moot’ for failure to show excusable neglect, when a constitutional challenge was before the court, was in my view error.” I agree with Judge Deshler and would, on this issue, allow the appeal and reverse the judgment of the court of appeals. I would affirm the court of appeals in its holding that R.C. 4123.512 is constitutional.

Resnick, J., concurs in the foregoing opinion.
