Summary
In Weil v. Taxicabs, Inc., 138 Ohio St. 414, it was held in effect that when a statute is amended the part of the original act which remains unchanged is considered as having continued in force as the law from the time of its original enactment, and the new portions having become the law only at the time of the amendment.
