Prohibition jurisdictional priority rule forcible entry and detainer action declaratory judgment claim for not surrendering possession. The court dismissed a prohibition action that argued the jurisdictional priority rule. A declaratory judgment claim that a tenant is not compelled to surrender possession did not divest a municipal court of jurisdiction to adjudicate a forcible entry and detainer action based on the authority of State ex rel. Weiss v. Hoover, 84 Ohio St.3d 530, 705 N.E.2d 127 (1999).
