Syllabus

The trial court did not err by granting defendants' motion for judgment on the pleadings and motion to dismiss, which the trial court converted into a motion for summary judgment, because plaintiffs' legal malpractice claims were barred by the four-year statute of repose in R.C. 2305.117(B). Contrary to plaintiffs' arguments, the trial court reviewed the correct version of the complaint when ruling on defendants' motions. The trial court did not abuse its discretion by not ruling on plaintiffs' motion to compel, filed after the discovery-cutoff date, and did not err by denying plaintiffs' untimely motion for substitution of a deceased defendant. Judgment affirmed.
