City appeals Comstock over Elyria skating rink injury
Harry M. Redington Elyria city solicitor filed a motion to certify the case City of Elyria versus Philo B. Comstock in the supreme court.

The appeals court affirmed the judgment, with Redington arguing the rink was operated by the Elyria Board of Education and the city should be exonerated due to its water provision role.
