On August 26, 2003, the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas declared
Dayton's Predatory Lending Ordinance to be in direct conflict w/Ohio law
and, therefore, unenforceable. If you'd like to read a copy of the Judge's decision,

The City filed an appeal, so now the validity of the Dayton ordinance shifts to the 1st Appellate District in Hamilton County for further determination.
