§ 2315.35.

After the court makes its findings of fact or after the jury returns its general verdict

accompanied by answers to interrogatories as described in section 2315.34 of the Revised Code , the court shall diminish the total amount of the compensatory damages that would

have been recoverable by an amount that is proportionately equal to the percentage

of tortious conduct determined under section 2307.23 of the Revised Code that is attributable to the plaintiff.  If the percentage of the tortious conduct determined to be attributable to the plaintiff
