Syllabus
The trial court did not err by denying a mental health care provider's claim of statutory immunity where their patient died by suicide. R.C. 2305.51 is a legislative response to the \special relation\ duty to third parties. It is not a broad grant of statutory immunity for mental health providers if their patient dies by suicide.
Judges: Hendrickson
