Maggard v. Zervos, Unpublished Decision (9-30-2004)
Opinion of the Court
{¶ 2} In the trial court, there are two cases that have been consolidated: Lake Common Pleas Nos. 99 CV 001724 and 03 CV 002450. There is no indication that 03 CV 002450 has yet been concluded. There is also no Civ.R. 54(B) language in the trial court's judgment entry stating that there was no just reason for delay.
{¶ 3} It is well-established that the conclusion of one case in a consolidated action does not constitute a final appealable order. Mezerkor v. Mezerkor (1994),
{¶ 4} Since the judgment entry being appealed only disposed of a part of a consolidated case, and did not contain Civ.R. 54(B) certification, there is no final appealable order before this court. Accordingly, this case is hereby dismissed. We note, however, that the motion to dismiss filed by Cheryl Maggard is not properly before this court due to the fact that Maggard is not a party to this particular appeal. Technically, therefore, Maggard's motion to dismiss is overruled, and the case is, sua sponte, dismissed.
{¶ 5} Appeal dismissed.
