View this case - free  

Overview: The statute of limitations applicable to a claim for monetary damages for discrimination filed against the state was the two-year statute in R.C. § 2743.16, and not the six-year statute in R.C. § 2305.07, so, when an employee filed a discrimination claim against a state university more than two years after the claim accrued, it was time-barred.
