2013Summit No. 14376, 1990 Ohio App. LEXIS 2182 , *2 (May 30, 1990). {¶40} Defense counsel apparently decided that it was appropriate to give the jury a curative instruction and then allow the empaneled jury to decide the case rather than “take another chance before an entirely different jury.” State v.
