Syllabus

The trial court did not err by entering partial summary judgment in favor of defendants-appellees on the claims of four plaintiffs-appellants. The primary issue in these appellants' claims had been litigated and decided in a prior probate-court judgment, so collateral estoppel barred these claims. Whether the trial court erred by granting judgment on the pleadings on claims under the Ohio Consumer Sales Practices Act is moot, because all those claims were reasserted in an amended complaint and subsequently dismissed by the plaintiffs or the trial court for other reasons. The trial court did not err by entering summary judgment for appellees on the claims of three appellants alleging violations of R.C. 1751.60appellants failed to show that they were damaged by the alleged violation. Judgment affirmed.
