  • 2021 Ohio 532

Syllabus

Trial court's decision to set off amount defendant owed to plaintiff under promissory note was not against manifest weight of the evidence even though set-off was premised on assertion of counterclaim and not as affirmative defense. Trial court did not lose its way in accepting some, but not all, testimony concerning value of custom furniture. Plaintiff was entitled to recover reasonable attorney fees from defendant under unambiguous language of promissory note.
