• refusing to allow a negligent misrepresentation claim under Ohio law when defendants failed to fulfill an alleged promise to pay for certain construction costs
• allowing a plaintiff, under Ohio law, to seek recovery for unjust enrichment on a claim within “the parameters of the contract” when there is an allegation of fraud or bad faith
• motion to dismiss granted where rebanee on oral representation was unreasonable as a matter of law because contract contained specific disclaimer and warning
• ‘‘[I]n the absence of fraud or bad faith, Ohio law prohibits recovery under a theory of unjust enrichment where an express contract covers the same subject.”
• “A claim for negligent misrepresentation is based on false information, not a broken promise.”
• “if the contract clearly and unambiguously precludes the alleged claim, dismissal is appropriate”
