Ohio Supreme Court June 28, 1978, No. 77-1114 (State ex rel. Ventrone v. Birkel)

lead-opinion

Per Curiam.

The only question on appeal is whether the-appellants have a statutory duty to establish standards of poor-relief payments “sufficient to maintain health and decency,” with which failure to comply constitutes a valid basis-for an action in mandamus. We hold that such a duty exists and that appellants have failed to comply with said duty.
