Ohio Crim.R. 47
Motions
An application to the court for an order shall be by motion. A motion, other than one made during
trial or hearing, shall be in writing unless the court permits it to be made orally. It shall state with
particularity the grounds upon which it is made and shall set forth the relief or order sought. It
shall be supported by a memorandum containing citations of authority, and may also be supported
by an affidavit.
To expedite its business, the court may make provision by rule or order for the submission and
determination of motions without oral hearing upon brief written statements of reasons in support
and opposition.
