Syllabus

Motion to dismiss; failure to prosecute; motion for relief from judgment; Civ.R. 60(B); bootstrapping. Appeal dismissed. By appealing from the January 15, 2025 journal entry denying appellant's motion for relief from judgment, appellant is attempting to bootstrap arguments that are time-barred. Appellant is attempting to utilize the instant appeal (denial of her Civ.R. 60(B) motion for relief from judgment) to improperly seek review of alleged errors that she failed to timely appeal (the dismissal of her refiled case for the failure to prosecute). As a result, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal.
