{¶ 12} I concur in affirming the denial of James Packard's motion for relief from judgment under Civ. R. 60(B). His motion was based upon the claim that "The judgment was erroneously granted, in that there is absolutely nothing in the record to support granting of said judgment." Civ. R. 60(B) is not a substitute for an appeal, which would have been the proper remedy if nothing supported the judgment. See, State v.Major, Erie App. No. E-08-030, 2008-Ohio-2734, ¶ 9, citing Doe v.Trumbull Cty. Children's Servs. Bd. (1986), 28 Ohio St.3d 128, 129. When the trial court makes an incorrect legal decision, the remedy is an appeal, not a motion under Civ. R. 60(B). Id. *Page 7
