     (No. 93-588 -- Submitted March 30, 1994 -- Decided May 4,                   
1994.)                                                                           
     Appeal from the Court of Appeals for Cuyahoga County, No.                   
63479.                                                                           
                                                                                 
     Kramer & Tobocman Co., L.P.A., and Suzanne M. Nigro;                        
Friedman & Gilbert and Terry Gilbert, for appellant.                             
     Duvin, Cahn, Barnard & Messerman, Andrew C. Meyer and                       
Robert M. Wolff, for appellees.                                                  
     Spater, Gittes, Schulte & Kolman and Frederick M. Gittes;                   
Louis A. Jacobs; and William Johnson, urging reversal for                        
amicus curiae, Ohio Employment Lawyers Association.                              
                                                                                 
     The appeal is dismissed, sua sponte, as having been                         
improvidently allowed.                                                           
     Moyer, C.J., Wright, Resnick and F.E. Sweeney, JJ., concur.                 
     A.W. Sweeney, Douglas and Pfeifer, JJ., dissent.                            
     Douglas, J., dissenting.     I respectfully dissent.  I                     
would reverse the court of appeals on the election-of-remedy                     
issue but affirm the court of appeals on the merit issue of                      
alleged age discrimination.  There is no age discrimination in                   
this case and appellees are entitled to have a final judgment                    
from this court on this issue.                                                   
     A.W. Sweeney and Pfeifer, JJ., concur in the foregoing                      
dissenting opinion.
