Syllabus

Pro se; Civ.R. 12(B)(6); failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted; App.R. 12(A)(2); App.R. 16; failure to make and support arguments for why trial court's judgment was wrong; assignment of error disregarded. Pro se appellant appeals the trial court's judgment entry granting the appellees' motions to dismiss, alleging the dismissal failed to satisfy the notice requirements of Civ.R. 41(B). This argument is without merit since the trial court's dismissal was pursuant to Civ.R. 12(B)(6), which does not have notice requirements. Appellant fails to make and support any arguments for why the trial court's dismissal pursuant to Civ.R. 12(B)(6) is wrong. The burden is on the appellant to make and substantiate one's argument pursuant to App.R. 12(A)(2). It is not an appellate court's job to make arguments for an appellant. Assignment of error is disregarded and the judgment is affirmed.
