Syllabus

Core Terms: public record court of claims R.C. 2743.75 R.C. 149.43 ambiguous overly broad email. Overview: Requester sought email between respondent and employees of a named company on specific dates and times. The special master found that the request as clarified prior to litigation reasonably identified the records sought. The special master further found that requester did not provide clear and convincing evidence to overcome respondent's attestation that if such emails had existed, they would have been deleted in accordance with the office records retention schedule and were no longer in her possession. Requester filed objections. Outcome: The court found no error of law or other defect on the face of the special master's decision and adopted the report and recommendation as its own.
