Syllabus

Trial court does not err in awarding attorneys' fees under R.C. 2323.51 as sanction for frivolous conduct of plaintiff where the plaintiff continued to pursue claims that clearly were not warranted under existing law. R.C. 2323.51 does not impose a duty on a party seeking sanctions to mitigate damages, but the party may only recover attorney fees that were reasonably incurred.
