Civil Remedies for Violation
§ 4112.99 Civil Remedies for Violation
Text of Statute
 
This version of the statute was enacted in 1996 as part of Am. Sub. H.B. 350. In State ex rel. Ohio Academy of Trial Lawyers v. Sheward (1999), 86 Ohio St.3d 451, the Ohio Supreme Court held that "Am. Sub. H.B. No. 350 (the Tort Reform Act) violates the one-subject provision of § 15(D), art II of the Ohio Constitution, and is unconstitutional in toto." Because of that decision any pre-HB 350 versions and any post-HB 350 amendments to this statute are also shown.
Whoever violates this chapter is subject to a civil action for damages, injunctive relief, or any other appropriate relief. A CIVIL ACTION COMMENCED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION SHALL BE BROUGHT WITHIN TWO YEARS AFTER THE ALLEGED UNLAWFUL DISCRIMINATORY PRACTICE OCCURRED. THE PERIOD OF LIMITATION SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION FOR PURPOSES OF A CIVIL ACTION AUTHORIZED BY THIS SECTION DOES NOT AFFECT ANY OTHER PERIOD OF LIMITATION THAT IS SPECIFIED IN ANOTHER SECTION OF THIS CHAPTER FOR PURPOSES OF A DISTINCT CIVIL ACTION AUTHORIZED BY THAT OTHER SECTION, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, A CIVIL ACTION AUTHORIZED BY DIVISION (N) OF SECTION 4112.02, DIVISION (D) OF SECTION 4112.021 [4112.02.1], DIVISION (A) OF SECTION 4112.051 [4112.05.1], OR DIVISION (B) OF SECTION 4112.14 OF THE REVISED CODE.
HISTORY: 128 v 12 (Eff 7-29-59); 133 v H 432 (Eff 11-12-69); 136 v S 162 (Eff 7-23-76); 142 v H 5 (Eff 9-28-87); 146 v H 350. Eff 1-27-97.
