Syllabus

Appellant's Civ.R. 10(D)(2) Affidavits of Merit could not be used as expert reports to support her medical claims against the defendant. Without an expert report sufficiently opining on the causation element of her medical claim, the appellant failed to satisfy her reciprocal burden of presenting evidence to demonstrate that a genuine issue of material fact existed and, therefore, the defendant was entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Judgment affirmed.
