Mayors Oppose Cleveland Court Jurisdiction Expansion
Two Ohio senators and the Cuyahoga County Mayors Association oppose a bill giving Cleveland Municipal Court countywide jurisdiction except eight suburbs and two townships. They warn it would abrogate home rule, increase law enforcement costs, and enable political appointments for judges and staff. The measure would unify 39 municipal courts under one law and create nine new courts, with House action pending.
