Court rules no error in land transfer case
Middletown City Schools has lost its appeal of a decision to deny the transfer of 1,600 acres of land from Franklin City Schools.
The 10th District Court of Appeals has overruled Middletown’s claim that a lower court was wrong when it upheld the decision by the Ohio State Board of Education to deny the transfer.
“Middletown asks us to reweigh the factors and find that the transfer will serve ‘the present and ultimate good of the pupils concerned,’” the decision from the appeals court reads.
“It is for the State Board, not this court, to weigh the facts and arguments and determine what will serve ‘the present and ultimate good of the pupils concern,’” the decision continues.
“Middletown’s assignment of error is not well-taken,” the decision states.
