Supreme Court won't order Medina County charter onto ballot
The Ohio Supreme Court declined to force Medina County to place a proposed charter on the November ballot. Justices ruled the petitioners could have pursued common pleas court avenues after a tie was broken by Secretary of State Husted, so no writ of mandamus would be issued. The decision hinges on whether the charter constitutes a legitimate form of county government.
