Warren App. No. CA2001-04-033. On review of order certifying a conflict. The court determines that a conflict exists; the parties are to brief the issue stated in the court of appeals’ Entry Granting Motion to Certify dated January 17, 2002:

“Where objections to a magistrate’s decision are filed in advance of the filing of the magistrate’s decision to which the objections apply, does the trial court err as a matter of law or abuse its discretion by overruling the objections as untimely?”

The conflict case is Koss v. Koss (June 29, 1982), Mahoning App. No. 81-C.A.-47, unreported, 1982 WL 6152.
