“appellant's argument is unpersuasive in view of Bond v. State (1872), 23 Ohio St. 349 , 355-56 . The third paragraph of the syllabus in Bond explains that it is not reversible error for a trial court, prior to the date set for a criminal trial, to discharge jurors on grounds of personal excuse and upon their unsworn statements; nor is it reversible error for the court to refuse to issue attachments against nonattending jurors.”
