§ 2307.27.
(A) The recovery of a judgment for an injury or loss to person or property or a wrongful
death against one tortfeasor does not of itself discharge the other tortfeasors from
liability for the injury, loss, or wrongful death unless the judgment is satisfied. The satisfaction of the judgment does not impair any right of contribution. (B) Valid answers to interrogatories by a jury or findings of fact by a court sitting
without a jury in determining the percentage of liability of several defendants for
an injury or loss to person or property or a wrongful death shall be binding as among
those defendants in determining their right to contribution.
