My involvement ended when the Ohio Supreme Court forced the trial judge (Megan Shanahan) to unmask the officer (Ryan Olthaus). But the case continued. The defendants won a dismissal and moved for sanctions based on frivolous conduct. Judge Shanahan denied that motion.

Today, I am pleased to report, the court of appeals reversed that decision, finding that Olthaus and/or his lawyers showed "willful blindness to the controlling legal standard," and that doing so "carries consequences."
