Syllabus

R.C. 2743.18(B). Plaintiff filed a motion requesting the Court award her supplemental attorneys' fees and costs associated with Defendant's appeal and post-judgment interest. After finding the request for supplemental fees and costs was reasonable, the Court found Plaintiff was entitled to $23,865.00 in supplemental attorneys' fees and costs associated with the appeal. However, the Court found that the plain language of R.C. 2743.18(B)(2) specifically precludes post-appeal recovery of post-judgment interest in tort actions. Because Plaintiff's claims sound in tort, the Court denied Plaintiff's request for post-appeal post-judgment interest.
