Syllabus

Motion for sanctions; frivolous conduct; post-judgment motion; R.C. 2323.51. - Judgment affirmed. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying appellants' post-judgment motion for sanctions, arguing that appellee's counsel filed the complaint knowing that it would be frivolous. The conduct was not egregious, nor does it matter that appellee was ultimately unsuccessful. A hearing is not required on a post-judgment motion for sanctions where the record does not clearly evidence frivolous conduct.
