Syllabus

County law department lacks standing to bring claim on behalf of the County under R.C. 309.12 for recovery of public funds where the statute expressly authorizes only the county prosecutor to bring such claims. Trial court did not err in finding that the County should have discovered the claims on July 29, 2008, when the Cleveland Plain Dealer published online articles reporting public corruption and the execution of a search warrant on a county commissioner, and linking to a copy of the search warrant.
