Syllabus

Motion for sanctions; hearing; R.C. 2323.51; Civ.R. 11; frivolous conduct; abuse of discretion. Judgment affirmed. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant's motions for sanctions without a hearing. The mere fact that plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed their claims is not enough to warrant sanctions, especially when the record is devoid of any evidence of frivolous conduct throughout the litigation.
