Ohio Court of Appeals May 16, 1997, No. L-96-269. (Murray v. Woodard)

Knepper, Judge.

This is an appeal from a judgment of the Lucas County Court of Common Pleas granting summary judgment in favor of appellees and against Grange Mutual Casualty Company (“Grange”). The issue before the court is whether R.C. 3937.181 requires that uninsured motorist property damage (“UMPD”) coverage be provided as a matter of law absent a knowing and express waiver of such coverage.
