The court’s statement is in accord with the subject matter waiver doctrine first enunciated in Hearn v. Rhay (E.D.Wash.1975), 68 F.R.D. 574, 581 , and subsequently followed by courts in other jurisdictions and in Ohio, including this court. 2002The test to be applied in deciding whether subject-matter waiver applies is set forth in Hearn v.
