May Not Affect This County Opinion Of John M Sheets
Special Despatch to Commercial Tribune reports that Hamilton and Cuyahoga counties may not be immediately affected by the Supreme Court ruling invalidating Pickaway County salary laws. Attorney General John M Sheets says the decision likely targets general forms, not counties with general acts. A separate suit may challenge the two counties' specific acts to set their salaries on a fee basis.
