Syllabus

Defendants, healthcare providers and doctors, appealed trial court's denial of summary judgment arguing that they were immune from suit as a result of the enactment of 2019 Ohio H.B. 606, which expanded the qualified statutory immunity from suit granted to healthcare providers during the period of the COVID-19 emergency. On review, appeal dismissed. Trial court's decision denying summary judgment was not a final order, and aside from the statutory exception for political subdivisions under R.C. Chapter 2744, Ohio courts do not allow for interlocutory review of a denial of summary judgment based on immunity.
