Syllabus

R.C. 4507.23(F), R.C. 4507.50(A), unjust enrichment. Plaintiffs brought a class action lawsuit against defendant for unjust enrichment alleging that the Deputy Registrars unlawfully charged and collected a lamination fee when class members purchased a new Ohio credential from July 2, 2018 until July 3, 2019 in violation of Ohio Driver's License Law. The court held an oral hearing to determine the merits of the case after which judgment was rendered in favor of defendant. Specifically, the court found that the Deputy Registrars neither violated the procedures set forth by the Driver's License Law by charging a $1.50 lamination fee when issuing the relevant credentials during the class period nor were they unjustly enriched by retaining such a fee.
