[OH] Can a temporary protection order be dismissed if the petitioner presents no evidence in discovery?

I currently have an ex parte protection order against me. The pre-trial has happened, and we were given time for discovery. I entered evidence; she did not. The claims she made, she has provided zero evidence for. However, she just retained a lawyer right before the time of the case, and has filed for and been granted a continuance, and this is the second continuance on the case. Is it possible for me to ask for a dismissal on the case due to lack of evidence? To add on, she filed for the protection order in response to me asking for court ordered custody time.
