Nos. 41257 and 41365 | Ohio | Feb 21, 1968
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting. Were I to express an opinion in these causes I would concur with my colleagues. However, I do not believe that the Supreme Court has jurisdiction of the causes of action or the parties for the reason that Section 5717.04 of the Revised Code clothes the Supreme Court with jurisdiction in appeals from the Board
In the eases at bar no question arises with respect to the location of the property taxed or the residence of the taxpayer, individual or corporate. My colleagues contend that the question of jurisdiction was not raised. However, since the General Assembly has specifically conferred sole jurisdiction in the instant cases upon the Court of Appeals for .Franklin County this court should, sua sponte, pass .upon the question. See Section 2505.21 of the Revised Code, which provides in part the following: “* * * but the court may consider and decide errors which are not assigned or specified. * * *” (Emphasis added.)
