Proposed Change to the Rule 21 of the Ohio Rules of Appellate Procedure

As the OACDL Secretary, I want to bring your attention to a proposed change to the Rule 21 of the Ohio Rules of Appellate Procedure. I am including that proposal link below. 

It would appear that the proposal allows attorneys to present Oral Argument remotely, greatly increasing the potential for advocacy across the State. The comment period closes November 30, 2026.
