A: The Ohio Supreme Court's website provides an example of the memorandum in support of jurisdiction. The Ohio Supreme Court reviews numerous cases and accepts jurisdiction over a very few. Your memorandum needs to explain to the Court why your appeal is of great importance to the general public.

At this point, you have lost at least twice. Trying to represent your self at this point is a monumental task. You should contact the Law Schools in Ohio to see if they have a clinic that would be willing to assist you. Or find a group that could benefit by having your case determined in your favor, maybe they would have some interest in assisting you.
