Supreme Court of Ohio.
O'CONNOR, J.
{¶ 1} This appeal implicates the "collateral attack" doctrine, which disfavors the authority of one court to revisit a judgment of another court, in another proceeding, in other than very limited circumstances. For the reasons that follow, we determine that this case amounts to an impermissible collateral attack on a prior valid judgment. We reverse the judgment of the court of appeals.
