State ex rel. Payne v. Reinbold
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the court of appeals’ judgment dismissing Appellant’s complaint for a writ of procedendo against retired Judge Richard D. Reinbold Jr. and Summit County Court of Common Pleas Judge Mary Margaret Rowlands.
In his action for a writ of procedendo Appellant alleged that he had never received a final, appealable sentencing order and asked the court to order Judge Reinbold and/or Judge Rowlands to issue a “proper” final sentencing entry. The court of appeals dismissed the case sua sponte because Appellant had an adequate remedy at law. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant was not entitled to an extraordinary writ in this case.
