New Internet Access to Ohio Supreme Court Case Information

 The Ohio Supreme Court’s news service, CourtNews Ohio announced a new search feature being added to the Court website last week to help the public track issues accepted by the justices  for review.

   The new service is accessible via the Clerk of Court/ Case Information tab, six down along the left margin of the website’s home page under “Issues Accepted for Review.” on the drop-down menu.  All accepted jurisdictional appeals, accepted certified conflict cases, and accepted certified question of state law cases are viewable while open and for 180 days after they are closed. A search can be done using the issue, case caption, or case number.

   Archived case summaries from 2002-2012 & more recent case summaries from 2012 on when Court News Ohio was born, along with  previews of oral arguments for the week are also available on the site.
