LOVE v. CITY OF PORT CLINTON

No. 87-434.

37 Ohio St. 3d 98 (1988)

LOVE, APPELLEE, v. CITY OF PORT CLINTON ET AL.; HICKMAN, APPELLANT.

Supreme Court of Ohio.

Decided June 8, 1988.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Stephen E. Cottrell, for appellee.

Ward, Marein & Gillette, Leo R. Ward and Jose M. Gonzalez, for appellant.

H. BROWN, J.

The issue is whether the action, as pled against Hickman, is barred by the statute of limitations for assault and battery claims. We find that it is.

When bodily injury results from negligence, the two-year statute of limitations, R.C. 2305.10, is the appropriate statute of limitations. However, when bodily injury results from an assault or battery, the one-year statute of limitations, R.C. 2305.111, is applicable.2
