Shimola v. City of Cleveland
Shimola v. City of Cleveland
Opinion of the Court
The appeal is dismissed, sua sponte, as having been improvidently allowed.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting. I respectfully dissent from the conclusion of the majority that this case was improvidently allowed. Entirely aside from any ultimate decision on the merits of the case, I believe the case presents a question of great public interest as to the possible retroactive effect of R.C. 2744.05(B) regarding the impairment of a remedy instead of a substantive right. This court may not be required to overrule Vogel v. Wells (1991), 57 Ohio St.3d 91, 566 N.E.2d 154, but could instead determine the constitutional question regarding the possible retroactive effect of R.C. 2744.05(B) should we find that only a remedy was affected. Thus, we could distinguish the Vogel decision. The majority’s decision that the ease was improvidently allowed, however, raises an implication that application of the statute in this case affects a substantive right without consideration of the argument that application of the statute may have affected only a remedy.
