Citations

  • 2026 Ohio 891

Syllabus

Absent a showing of inaccessibility, mental incompetence, or other disability under R.C. 2725.04, Teresa Peters may not litigate a petition for writ of habeas corpus on behalf of her brother, petitioner David Peters. Teresa Peters did not make this showing, and so the Tenth District Court of Appeals strikes the objections to the magistrate's decision. Finding no error or other defect on the face of the magistrate's decision, this court adopts the magistrate's decision as our own. Petition for writ of habeas corpus dismissed; action dismissed.
