  • 2022 Ohio 862

Syllabus

Where prior custody orders were issued as to the minor ward by a domestic relations court, and where appellant fails to timely object to a probate court's subsequent issuance of letters of guardianship the order is voidable, not void, and the jurisdiction issue may be waived. Further, in proceedings involving a minor ward, in determining whether good cause exists to terminate the guardianship the paramount right of a natural parent is relevant and must be considered.
