ALEXANDER v. TOLEDO

No. 35781.

168 Ohio St. 495 (1959)

ALEXANDER ET AL., APPELLANTS, v. CITY OF TOLEDO, APPELLEE.

Supreme Court of Ohio.

Decided February 11, 1959.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Messrs. Eastman, Stichter & Smith, Mr. Jamille G. Jamra and Mr. Raymond L. Crawford, for appellants. Mr. Charles T. Lawton, director of law, and Mr. Robert Dorrell, for appellee.


Per Curiam.

The question, the answer to which is determinative of this case, is whether the words, "for municipal purposes only, but not for school purposes," appearing in the caption of the ballot were unauthorized and thus invalidated the election. This court is of the opinion that the quoted words were unauthorized in the light of Section 3505.06, Revised Code, and that their use in the ballot invalidated the election.
