Ohio R. Prac. S. Ct. 8.02
The Supreme Court will review the court of appeals' order certifying a conflict. If the case involves termination of parental rights or adoption of a minor child, or both, the Supreme Court will expedite its review.
If the rule of law upon which the alleged conflict exists is not clearly set forth in the order certifying a conflict, the Supreme Court may dismiss the case or remand it to the court of appeals with an order that the court of appeals clarify the issue presented.
If the Supreme Court determines that a conflict does not exist, it will issue an order dismissing the case.
If the Supreme Court determines that a conflict exists, it will issue an order finding a conflict, identifying those issues raised in the case that will be considered by the Supreme Court, and ordering those issues to be briefed.
