Ohio. R. Superi. Ct. 1

Commentary (July 1, 1997)

Rule 1 is patterned after Rule 1 of the Rules of Superintendence for Courts of Common Pleas and has been revised to reflect the adoption of uniform superintendence rules. The Rules of Superintendence for the Courts of Ohio are intended to apply to all trial and appellate courts, except the Court of Claims, unless a rule clearly is intended to apply only to a specific court or division of a court.
