Suit Contested By Prosecutor Before Ohio Supreme Court
Prosecutor Howard R. Butler will challenge Commissioner Edward DeChant at the Ohio Supreme Court on February 16. He seeks to block DeChant’s salary hike from 1839 to 3095 dollars a year plus ditch fees, arguing the Ohio Constitution bars changes to an elective official’s pay during a term. The case questions the legality of a new state gallery law and hinges on a demurrer filed by Butler. DeChant and Davidson have nearly three years left in their terms.
