State v. Tolbert (amicus)

Law enforcement is increasingly using artificial intelligence, including facial recognition technology to investigate crimes. However, the use of such technology to identify a suspect is akin to relying on an anonymous informant, which in and of itself is insufficient to establish probable cause.

Preterm-Cleveland, et al. v. Yost, et al. (waiting period challenge)

Ohio law burdens people seeking an abortion with a set of onerous, medically unnecessary, and sometimes harmful prerequisites to obtaining that abortion. This set of restrictions violates the new constitutional amendment guaranteeing abortion rights in the state.

Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio v. Yost

In 2021 Ohio passed S.B. 260, a law prohibiting telemedicine abortions. Medication abortions are safe and effective whether they are performed in a medical office or at home. S.B. 260 violates the new constitutional prohibition on unnecessary legal burdens on reproductive healthcare.

State v. Morris (amicus)

The Ohio Constitution provides a right to counsel that is broader than the corresponding protection in the U.S. Constitution. When police interrogate a defendant alone, but for whom counsel has been appointed, they risk tricking the defendant into believing there is no lawyer available to help them.

Disability Rights

League of Women Voters of Ohio, et al. v. LaRose, et al. (HB458)
