Ohio Supreme Court August 5, 1998, No. 97-1143 (Conley v. Brown Corp. of Waverly, Inc.)

lead-opinion

Douglas, J.

The case at bar presents us with an excellent opportunity to revisit the holdings in Taylor, 36 Ohio St.3d 149, 522 N.E.2d 464, and to expressly overrule Taylor as an anomaly of Ohio law. For the reasons that follow, we reverse the judgment of the court of appeals, vacate the judgment of the trial court, and remand this cause to the trial court for further proceedings.
