MELODY J. STEWART, A.J.:
{¶1} Sua sponte, it appears that the lower court case number listed in the notice of
appeal, CR-563092, has been dismissed without prejudice by the court of common pleas
because the state of Ohio has reindicted the remaining defendants under a new court of
common pleas case number. Our appellate jurisdiction extends only to CR-563092, the
case actually appealed to this court. See Marcum v. Colonial Ins. Co. of Wisconsin, 10th
Dist. Franklin No. 02AP-917, 2003-Ohio-4369, ¶ 20; State v. Steers, 4th Dist.
Washington No. 11CA33, 2013-Ohio-3266, ¶ 1. Because a dismissal without prejudice
is not a final order under R.C. 2505.02, State v. Craig, 116 Ohio St.3d 135,
2007-Ohio-5752, 876 N.E.2d 957, ¶ 8, we have no jurisdiction over this interlocutory
appeal.
{¶2} Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
It is ordered that appellees recover of appellant their costs herein taxed.
A certified copy of this entry shall constitute the mandate pursuant to Rule 27 of
the Rules of Appellate Procedure.
