Debate over unmarried partners and domestic violence law
The Ohio debate centers on whether the 1979 domestic violence law protects unmarried cohabiting victims after the marriage amendment. Courts differ on whether "family or household member" includes unmarried partners, creating conflict with Cleveland’s ruling that the marriage amendment overrides protections for unmarried victims. County prosecutors and defense lawyers push varied interpretations as lawmakers study nonconflicting definitions.
