COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio House Republicans said recommendations on how an impeachment process against Attorney General Marc Dann would proceed won't be coming until Friday at the earliest.

House Speaker Jon Husted has asked state Rep. Bill Batchelder, a former appeals court judge, to review the process and determine the standards that are necessary for an impeachment.

House Minority Leader Joyce Beatty has also appointed three Democrats to look into a possible impeachment.

Lawmakers on both sides said they are proceeding cautiously because Ohio has not seen an impeachment in nearly 200 years, and they would be setting a precedent for perhaps centuries to come.

Lawmakers and top state leaders have called for Dann's resignation after he admitted to an affair with a subordinate that he said contributed to an atmosphere where sexual harassment was permissible. Dann has rebuffed those requests.
