Ohio Court of Appeals September 7, 2007, No. 2006-L-101. (Dept. of Pub. Safety v. Buckley, 2006-L-101 (9-7-2007))

{¶ 28} The sole issue in this appeal is which party is the "owner" of the money in question that was seized. Since appellants were no longer "owners" of the money *Page 9 seized at the time of the raid, they neither had "an unconditional right to intervene" conferred by statute, nor could they "claim[ ] an interest relating to the property * * * that is subject of the action * * *."
