|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | King v. Order of United Commercial Travelers of America Anchor | green | “a federal court adjudicating a matter of state law in a diversity suit is, in effect, only another court of the state; it would be incongruous indeed to hold the federal court bound by a decision which would not be binding on any state court.” | 14 |
| 2 | Savedoff v. Access Group, Inc. | green | “as the parties do not dispute that the student loan contracts at issue are governed by ohio law, we apply ohio law to the parties' contractual dispute.” | 6 |
| 3 | Royal Indemnity Company v. Henry Clingan and Linda Clingan | green | “although we are not bound in a diversity case by an unreported decision of a state court of original jurisdiction, we may give weight to this decision of the chancery in determining what is the controlling law.” | 5 |
