Ohio Loc. App. R. 15
An application for en banc consideration filed pursuant to App.R. 26(A)(2) shall initially be submitted to the three-judge panel that issued the more recent of the decision(s) alleged to be in conflict. If any member of the original three-judge panel is a visiting judge, an alternative judge shall be selected from the available full-time members of the court to sit on the three-judge panel initially reviewing the application for en banc consideration. If, following review of the application, the three-judge panel unanimously finds that no conflict exists the panel shall issue a decision so finding and deny the application for en banc consideration. If any member of the three-judge panel finds that a conflict does exist, the application for en banc consideration shall be submitted to the en banc court for determination. Pursuant to S.Ct. Prac. R. 7.01(A)(6), the filing of a timely application for en banc consideration tolls the time for filing of a notice of appeal with the Supreme Court of Ohio from a judgment of this court.
