““ ‘Ordinarily, a motion for judgment on the pleadings should be made promptly after the close of the pleadings. If a party indulges in excessive delay before moving under * * * [Civ.R. 12(C) ], the court may refuse to hear the motion on the ground that its consideration will delay or interfere with the commencement of the trial. The determination whether the motion constitutes a delay of trail is within the sound discretion of the judge. However, if it seems clear that the motion may effectively dispose of the case, the court should permit it regardless of any possible delay its consideration may cause. * * *’ 5 Wright & Miller, Federal Practice and Procedure (1969) 685, 687, Section 1367.” Id., 38 Ohio App.3d at 111 , 526 N.E.2d at 1100 .”
