Ohio Supreme Court Allows Psychiatric Claim After Colleague's Death
The Ohio Supreme Court ruled 4-3 that workers compensation can cover psychiatric treatment for a steelworker who developed severe depression after accidentally killing a co worker. Leonard Bailey of Canton argued his condition stems from his job and the accident at Republic Eng in Steels Inc. The ruling sends his case back to Stark County Common Pleas Court for consideration.

State faces eight million dollar fine over child support delays
Ohio must pay an $8 million federal penalty for failing to meet child support requirements. Problems include a computer system that withheld hundreds of thousands in payments since 1996. Jacqueline Romer-Sensky said the department erred in calculating payments and could not estimate total back payments or affected families. Governor Taft ordered an analysis by Monday.
