Yolanda Andolsek, pro se, 29236 Eddy Road, Willoughby Hills, OH 44092 (Appellant).
Russell J. Meraglio, Reminger Co., L.P.A., 101 West Prospect Avenue, Suite 1400,

THOMAS R. WRIGHT, J.
{¶1} Appellant, Yolanda Andolsek, appeals the trial court’s denial of her motion
to reconsider its order overruling her motion to remove the estate administrator.
Appellee moves for dismissal and appellant opposes.
{¶2} An entry granting or denying a motion to remove an executor of an estate
is a final appealable order. R.C. 2505.02(B)(4). In re Estate of Geanangel, 147 Ohio
App.3d 131, 137 (2002). A motion for reconsideration of a final appealable order is a
nullity. Consequently, judgments ruling on motions for reconsideration are a nullity and
cannot be appealed. Pitts v. Ohio Dept. of Transp., 67 Ohio St.2d 378, 381 (1981); see
also, Kuss v. Clements, 11th Dist. No. 2012-P-0023, 2012-Ohio-1678, at ¶ 4.
{¶3} Accordingly, appellee’s motion is granted. Appeal dismissed.
