Appleton Papers, Inc., Appellant, v. Allis-Chalmers Corporation et al., Appellees.
    [Cite as Appleton Papers, Inc. v. Allis-Chalmers Corp. (1991), 61 Ohio St.3d 160.]
    (No. 90-1484
    Submitted April 23, 1991
    Decided July 24, 1991.)
    
      Pickrel, Schaeffer & Ebeling and William L. Havemann, for appellant.
    
      Jenks, Surdyk & Cowdrey and Thomas L. Czechowski, for appellees.
   The plaintiff-appellant, Appleton Papers, Inc., having raised claims against defendants-appellees, Allis-Chalmers Corporation and Yoith, Inc., for negligence, strict tort liability, and breach of implied warranties of merchantability and fitness, alleges claims that are not actionable against appellees under Cincinnati Bell Tel. Co. v. Straley (1988), 40 Ohio St.3d 372, 533 N.E.2d 764. The court of appeals’ affirmance of the trial court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of appellees is therefore affirmed.

Moyer, C.J., Sweeney, H. Brown and Resnick, JJ., concur.

Douglas, J., concurs in judgment only.

Holmes and Wright, JJ., dissent.
