Harsha, J., concurring:
  

   {¶ 30} I concur in judgment and opinion except for paragraph 10, which seems to contain two inconsistent standards of review. In that regard I believe the law cited in
   
    Hamilton, supra
   
   and
   
    Comen, supra
   
   applies, rather than the rule cited in
   
    Ellis, supra
   
   . In other words the trial court may retain discretion in the wording of the instruction, but it cannot, as a matter of law, refuse to give an instruction where there is "appropriate to the facts" presented in evidence.
