Governor Kasich reviews district-switch felony conviction:

Ohio Gov. John Kasich has asked the Ohio Parole Board to determine whether the felony conviction of an Ohio woman who used her father's address to enroll her children in a neighboring school district was an appropriate punishment. Forty-year-old Kelley Williams-Bolar of Akron spent nine days in jail after a jury convicted her of falsifying documents in order to enroll her daughters in the Copley-Fairlawn schools from 2006 to 2008. The felony record precludes her from following through on plans to become a teacher.
After a legal team review, Kasich said Tuesday that he believes the case merits Parole Board attention. The panel will determine whether to let the conviction stand, reduce the charge or pardon Williams-Bolar.

Good for him.  I'm always in favor of using common sense in the legal system.
