Syllabus

Magistrate's decision objections failure to file transcript Civ.R 53 Loc.R. 27 of the Court of Common Pleas of Cuyahoga County, Domestic Relations Division plain error. Judgment affirmed. Appellant failed to file a transcript with his objections to the factual findings in the magistrate's decision. As a result, Civ.R. 53 provides that appellant waived the issue he raises on appeal and we decline to find plain error. Appellant has failed to argue and demonstrate that this is an \extremely rare case\ in which exceptional circumstances exist warranting application of the plain error doctrine in order to prevent a manifest miscarriage of justice.
