Flores v. Porter, Case No. 2006-CA-42, COURT OF APPEALS OF OHIO, FIFTH APPELLATE DISTRICT, RICHLAND COUNTY, February 2, 2007, Date of Judgment Entry
View this case - free  

Overview: The appeal had to be dismissed for lack of a final appealable order. The judgment entry from which the appeal was taken did not bear the signature of the trial judge. Rather, the trial judge's signature was rubber-stamped on the judgment entry. It therefore did not comply with Civ. R. 58 and was thus not a final appealable order.

Overview: Imposition of court costs on a plaintiff who voluntarily dismissed his action pursuant to Civ.
