I concur only in the judgment overruling both assignments of error and affirming the trial court's judgment. I write separately to express my own view of this matter.
With respect to appellant's first assignment of error, appellants's November 5, 1999 motion sought Civ.R.60(B) relief from their prior dismissal of Count III of their complaint. Generally, Civ.R.60(B) concerns relief from judgments or orders. This rule does not usually apply to a party's own voluntary dismissal of one of the claims in their complaint. Thus, I find no error, let alone an abuse of discretion, in denying such relief.
