No. 2013-1264.

136 Ohio St.3d 371 (2013)

2013-Ohio-3867

THE STATE EX REL. COUGHLIN v. SUMMIT COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS.

Supreme Court of Ohio.

Decided September 9, 2013.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Donald S. Varian Jr. , for relator.

Sherry Bevan Walsh , Summit County Prosecuting Attorney, John F. Galonski , Deputy Chief, Civil Division, and Joseph M. Fantozzi , Chief Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for respondent.

Per Curiam.

{¶ 1} This is an expedited election action by relator, Kevin J. Coughlin, for a writ of mandamus to compel respondent, the Summit County Board of Elections, to place his name on the November 5, 2013 ballot as a candidate for Stow Municipal Court clerk of courts. Because the board disregarded clearly established law by refusing to place Coughlin's name on the ballot, we grant the writ.
