Summary judgment Civ.R. 56 defamation innocent construction immunity. The court found that there was a reasonable innocent construction of defendant's employee's statements and that construction must be adopted.

Plaintiff's response to the motion for summary judgment failed to present any evidence or legal argument to support a finding that defendant's employees were not entitled to civil immunity, and thus defendant's employees were entitled to immunity pursuant to R.C. 9.86 and 2743.02(F).
