Controversy has arisen over the use of private judges in civil cases. ORC 2701.10 allows parties to select a retired judge to try a case, if they provide compensation to the judge and "assume the responsibility for providing facilities, equipment, and personnel reasonably needed . . ." Private judges have been using empty county courtrooms and county jurors. Current common pleas judges object, because they often have to delay cases to get sufficient jurors. Additionally, private judges who are not visiting judges are able to act as attorneys in the same court they act as private judges.
