Cynthia Mingus testified she had a legitimate safety concern when seeking a civil stalking protection order against Avon Lake Municipal Court Bailiff Mark Hagedorn earlier this month.

Forest City Commercial Group says the riverfront convention center in Cleveland will exceed the 400 million county cap even after a redesign to cut 100 million. The center would replace the aging building and a second site proposal also tops 400 million.
