Insurance — Automobile liability — Insured intentionally stabbed by another motorist — Coverage under uninsured motorist provision, inapplicable — Supreme Court practice — Syllabus from prior case corrected, when.

APPEAL from the Court of Appeals for Mahoning County, No. 88 C.A. 41.

Pfau, Pfau Pfau and William E. Pfau III, for appellant.

Daniel L. Rossi, for appellee.


This case is reversed and remanded on authority of Howell v. Richardson (1989), 45 Ohio St.3d 365, 544 N.E.2d 878, paragraph two of the syllabus; and Kish v. Central Natl. Ins. Group of Omaha (1981), 67 Ohio St.2d 41, 21 O.O. 3d 26, 424 N.E.2d 288.

In reviewing Howell, supra, we discovered an error in paragraph one of the syllabus. That syllabus paragraph and the corresponding language in the body of the opinion at 368, 544 N.E.2d at 881, is corrected to read as follows:

"Where a determination is made in an action instituted against a tort-feasor relative to his culpable mental state, collateral estoppel precludes relitigation of the determination in a supplemental proceeding brought against his insurer pursuant to R.C. 3929.06."

MOYER, C.J., SWEENEY, HOLMES, DOUGLAS, WRIGHT, H. BROWN and RESNICK, JJ., concur.
