PROCEDURE/RULES — MOTION TO DISMISS — R.C. 3701.74 — FAILURE TO PROVIDE MEDICAL RECORDS: The trial court did not err in dismissing the plaintiff's complaint because Ohio does not recognize a cause of action for negligent failure to produce medical records, and defendant hospital did not owe a duty to produce medical records where plaintiff was not the patient or an authorized representative to obtain such records under R.C. 3701.74.
