Court of Appeals of Ohio, First District, Hamilton County.

December 21, 2012.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John Curp , City Solicitor, Charles Rubenstein , City Prosecutor, and Heidi Rosales , Assistant City Prosecutor, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

OPINION

PER CURIAM.

{¶1} Defendant-appellant Bruce E. Meadows appeals his conviction for violating Cincinnati Municipal Code 506-51, which involves the duty of a driver to yield to a pedestrian lawfully crossing the roadway within a crosswalk. Because the trial court erroneously imposed a duty of care not contained in the charged code section, we reverse Meadows's conviction and remand this cause for a new trial.
