Syllabus

CRIMINAL CONTEMPT – PROCEDURE/RULES – RETURN OF PROPERTY: The trial court erred in denying appellant's motion for the return of his property because, pursuant to State v. Hammock, 1st Dist. Hamilton No. C-200368, 2021-Ohio-3574, indefinitely confiscating appellant's cell phone and iPad is not reasonably commensurate with the gravity of the direct-criminal-contempt offense for which he was convicted.
