PFEIFER, J., dissenting. 
{¶2} 
I dissent from the majority’s decision to declare that this 
case was improvidently allowed.  While it is not possible to determine 
whether Geggie’s claim is meritorious, I believe her pleadings were 
sufficient, pursuant to Fyffe v. Jeno’s, Inc. (1991), 59 Ohio St.3d 115, 570 
N.E.2d 1108, paragraphs one and two of the syllabus, to survive a Civ.R. 
12(B)(6) motion for dismissal. 
 
RESNICK, J., concurs in the foregoing dissenting opinion.
