Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Ohio

Stay

A declartory judgement suit was filed by a proscutor then the same filed a CR suit claiming tampering with evidence. The judge heard the second suit before the first.

Does not the first suit put a stay on all suits relating to the same person or persons? Did the judge error?
