OLMSTED TWP. v. RIOLO

No. 54004.

49 Ohio App. 3d 114 (1988)

OLMSTED TOWNSHIP, APPELLEE, v. RIOLO, APPELLANT.

Court of Appeals of Ohio, Cuyahoga County.

Decided June 20, 1988.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Thomas M. Kennedy and Michael E. Murman, for appellee.

Kalam Muttalib, for appellant.


MARKUS, J.

The trial court ordered the defendant landowner to pay the plaintiff township $26,500 for his protracted violation of an injunction against maintaining a junk yard. He appeals, arguing that the court (a) lacked authority to impose so large a fine or judgment for contempt, and (b) unfairly rejected his contention that compliance with its proper decree was impossible. These contentions lack merit, so we affirm the trial court's order.
