Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority v. Capozzolo

We represented the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority in this appropriation action. After the trial court found that the Authority could not take the defendants’ property for purposes of a new transit center, the court of appeals vacated the judgment. In a subsequent appeal, the court of appeals ruled against the Authority in a fee petition brought by the defendants, even though the defendants did not prevail in the earlier appeal.  Case Citation: (1) 154 Ohio App.3d 156, 796 N.E.2d 583, 2003 Ohio 4696 (2) 2001 WL 1887723, 2001 Ohio 4010.
