Tube City Olympic of Ohio, Inc. v. Jones

In Tube City Olympic of Ohio, Inc. v. Jones, 10th Dist. No. 03AP-295, 2004 Ohio 1464, the Court discussed the terms "reliable," "probative," and "substantial." "'Reliable evidence is evidence which can be trusted. In order for evidence to be reliable, there must be a reasonable probability that it is true. Probative evidence is evidence which tends to prove the issue in question, while substantial evidence is evidence which carries weight, or evidence which has importance or value.'" Id., at P25, quoting City of Perrysburg v. Schregardus (Nov. 13, 2001), 10th Dist. No. 00AP-1403, 2001 Ohio 4085. In determining whether ERAC's decision is supported by the requisite quantum of evidence, we must weigh and evaluate the credibility of the evidence presented to ERAC. Id., at P26. This process involves a consideration of the evidence and, to a limited extent, would permit a substitution of judgment by the reviewing court. Id.
