Syllabus

APPELLATE JURISDICTION – PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION – FINAL APPEALABLE ORDER – CONSTITUTIONAL LAW/CIVIL – PRIOR RESTRAINT – COMMERCIAL SPEECH – R.C. 2505(B): Where a preliminary injunction restricted commercial speech in a noncompete dispute, there was no exception to the statutory requirements for appellate jurisdiction permitting immediate appellate review. The appeal must be dismissed for lack of a final appealable order under R.C. 2505.02(B)(4) where defendants will have a meaningful and effective remedy by an appeal following final judgment.
