Oral Argument Preview: Malicious Litigation. American Chemical Society v. Leadscope — 2 Comments

  1. Marianna, thanks for this. As someone who know nothing about how the Ohio Supreme Court works but who is interested in the outcome of this case, what can we expect now that oral arguments have been heard?

    For example, how long does it typically take for a decision to be made? What kind of press coverage of the arguments is allowed and what has been published of it in this case?

    • Rich,
      There is no set time for the Court to make its decision. This was a very complex case, so it will take awhile–months, probably. The justices must stake out their positions, and then drafts go back and forth among them. There may well be dissents or separate concurring opinions, which tend to make the time for releasing the decision longer. Oral arguments at the Supreme Court are open to the public and to the press. I’ve not had the chance to check press coverage in the case, but you probably will find coverage in the Columbus area. Thanks for writing.
