1991Furthermore, the Ohio Supreme Court has not referred to the presumption since its 1956 decision in Dennison, supra. In fact, when it did have the opportunity to do so in determining the effect of a difference of one word between the Ohio contribution statute, R.C. 2307.32(F)(1), and the Uniform Contribution Among Joint Tortfeasors Act, which was in all other respects identical, the court not only failed to refer to the presumption, but concluded that the “difference of a single word [was] not significant.” Beck v. Cianchetti (1982), 1 Ohio St.3d 231 , 1 OBR 253, 439 N.E.2d 417, fn. 3 .
