State ex rel. Kushlak v. Cleveland Animal Protective League
Citations
- 2024 Ohio 580
Syllabus
Mandamus, agreed sentence, community control, adequate remedy in the ordinary course of the law, appeal, declaratory judgment, prohibitory injunction. - The relator seeks a writ of mandamus to prevent enforcement of an agreed sentencing provision that provides for the unannounced inspection of the relator's home by the Animal Protective League. The relator possessed an adequate remedy in the ordinary course of the law by prosecuting an appeal from the sentencing journal entry that imposed the condition of unannounced inspections of the relator's home. In addition, the relator actually seeks a declaratory judgment and a prohibitory injunction over which the court of appeals lacks jurisdiction to hear. Complaint for mandamus is dismissed.
