(1) The court shall determine whether there are any | 41 |
relatives of the child who are willing to be temporary custodians | 42 |
of the child. If any relative is willing to be a temporary | 43 |
custodian, the child otherwise would remain or be placed in | 44 |
shelter care, and the appointment is appropriate, the court shall | 45 |
appoint the relative as temporary custodian of the child, unless | 46 |
the court appoints another relative as custodian. If it | 47 |
determines that the appointment of a relative as custodian would | 48 |
not be appropriate, it shall issue a written opinion setting
forth | 49 |
the reasons for its determination and give a copy of the
opinion | 50 |
to all parties and the guardian ad litem of the child. | 51 |
(C)(1) The court shall direct the issuance of a summons | 63 |
directed to the child except as provided by this section, the | 64 |
parents, guardian, custodian, or other person with whom the child | 65 |
may be, and any other persons that appear to the court to be | 66 |
proper or necessary parties to the proceedings, requiring them to | 67 |
appear before the court at the time fixed to answer the | 68 |
allegations of the complaint. The summons shall contain the name | 69 |
and telephone number of the court employee designated by the
court | 70 |
pursuant to section 2151.314 of the Revised Code to arrange
for | 71 |
the prompt appointment of counsel for indigent persons. A
child | 72 |
alleged to be an abused, neglected, or dependent child
shall not | 73 |
be summoned unless the court so directs. A summons
issued for a | 74 |
child who is under fourteen years of age and who is
alleged to be | 75 |
a delinquent child, unruly child, or a juvenile
traffic offender | 76 |
shall be served on the parent, guardian, or
custodian of the child | 77 |
in the child's behalf. | 78 |
(2) In lieu of appearing before the
court at the time fixed | 83 |
in the summons and prior to the date
fixed for appearance in the | 84 |
summons, a child who is alleged
to have violated section 2151.87 | 85 |
of the
Revised
Code and that child's parent, guardian, or | 86 |
custodian
may sign a waiver of appearance
before the clerk of the | 87 |
juvenile court and pay a fine of one hundred dollars.
If the | 88 |
child and that child's parent, guardian, or custodian do not waive | 89 |
the
court appearance,
the court shall proceed with the | 90 |
adjudicatory
hearing as provided in this section. | 91 |
(D) If the complaint contains a prayer for permanent | 92 |
custody, temporary custody, whether as the preferred or an | 93 |
alternative disposition, or a planned
permanent living arrangement | 94 |
in a case
involving an alleged abused, neglected, or dependent | 95 |
child, the
summons served on the parents shall contain as is | 96 |
appropriate an
explanation that the granting of permanent custody | 97 |
permanently
divests the parents of their parental rights and | 98 |
privileges, an
explanation that an adjudication that the child is | 99 |
an abused,
neglected, or dependent child may result in an order of | 100 |
temporary
custody that will cause the removal of the child from | 101 |
their legal
custody until the court terminates the order of | 102 |
temporary custody
or permanently divests the parents of their | 103 |
parental rights, or
an explanation that the issuance of an order | 104 |
for a planned permanent living
arrangement will cause the removal | 105 |
of the child from the legal custody
of the parents if any of the | 106 |
conditions listed in divisions
(A)(5)(a) to (c) of section | 107 |
2151.353 of the Revised Code are
found to exist. | 108 |
(3) In cases in which the complaint alleges that a child | 124 |
previously has been adjudicated a delinquent child for having | 125 |
committed a violation of section 4511.741 of the Revised Code or a | 126 |
substantially similar municipal ordinance and also alleges that | 127 |
the child again has committed a violation of section 4511.741 of | 128 |
the Revised Code or a substantially similar municipal ordinance | 129 |
and that the parent, guardian, or other person having care of the | 130 |
child failed to prevent the latest violation, the court shall | 131 |
endorse upon the summons an order directing the parent, guardian, | 132 |
or other person having care of the child to appear personally at | 133 |
the hearing and directing the person having the physical custody | 134 |
or control of the child to bring the child to the hearing. | 135 |
(2) In cases in which the complaint alleges a child to be an | 141 |
abused,
neglected, or dependent child and no hearing has been | 142 |
conducted pursuant to
division (A) of section 2151.314 of the | 143 |
Revised Code with respect to the child
or a parent, guardian, or | 144 |
custodian of the child does not attend the
hearing, the summons | 145 |
also shall contain a statement advising that a case plan
may be | 146 |
prepared for the child, the general requirements usually contained | 147 |
in
case plans, and the possible consequences of failure to comply | 148 |
with a
journalized case plan. | 149 |
(G) If it appears from an affidavit filed or from sworn | 150 |
testimony before the court that the conduct, condition, or | 151 |
surroundings of the child are endangering the child's health
or | 152 |
welfare or those of others, that the child may abscond or be | 153 |
removed from
the jurisdiction of the court, or that the child will | 154 |
not be
brought to the
court, notwithstanding the service of the | 155 |
summons, the court may
endorse upon the summons an order that a | 156 |
law enforcement officer
serve the summons and take the child into | 157 |
immediate custody and
bring the child forthwith to the court. | 158 |
(L) If the court, at an adjudicatory hearing held pursuant | 181 |
to
division (A) of this section upon a complaint alleging that a | 182 |
child
is an abused, neglected, dependent, delinquent, or unruly | 183 |
child or a juvenile
traffic offender, determines that the child is | 184 |
a dependent child, the court
shall incorporate that determination | 185 |
into written findings of fact and
conclusions of law and enter | 186 |
those findings of fact and conclusions of law in
the record of the | 187 |
case. The court shall include in
those findings of fact and | 188 |
conclusions of law specific findings as to the
existence of any | 189 |
danger to the child and any underlying family problems that
are | 190 |
the basis for the court's determination that the child is a | 191 |
dependent
child. | 192 |
Sec. 2151.35. (A)(1) Except as otherwise provided by | 193 |
division
(A)(3) of this section or
in section 2152.13 of the | 194 |
Revised Code, the juvenile
court may conduct its
hearings in an | 195 |
informal manner and may adjourn its hearings
from
time to time. | 196 |
The court may exclude
the
general public from its hearings in a | 197 |
particular case if the court holds a
separate hearing to determine | 198 |
whether that exclusion is
appropriate. If the court decides that | 199 |
exclusion of the general public
is appropriate, the court still | 200 |
may
admit to a particular hearing or all of the hearings
relating | 201 |
to a particular case those persons
who have a direct interest
in | 202 |
the case and those who demonstrate that their need for access | 203 |
outweighs
the interest in keeping the hearing closed. | 204 |
Except cases involving children who are alleged to be unruly | 205 |
or delinquent children for being habitual or chronic truants
and | 206 |
cases involving children who are alleged to be delinquent children | 207 |
for having committed a violation of section 4511.741 of the | 208 |
Revised Code or a substantially similar municipal ordinance and | 209 |
who previously have been adjudicated delinquent for having | 210 |
committed such a violation and except as
otherwise provided in | 211 |
section 2152.13 of the Revised Code, all cases
involving children | 212 |
shall be heard separately and
apart from the trial of cases | 213 |
against adults. The court may
excuse the attendance of the child | 214 |
at the hearing in cases
involving abused, neglected, or dependent | 215 |
children. The court
shall hear and determine all cases of | 216 |
children without a jury,
except cases involving serious youthful | 217 |
offenders
under section 2152.13 of the Revised Code. | 218 |
If the court at the adjudicatory hearing finds from clear
and | 229 |
convincing evidence that the child is an abused, neglected,
or | 230 |
dependent child, the court shall proceed, in accordance with | 231 |
division (B) of this section, to hold a dispositional hearing and | 232 |
hear the evidence as to the proper disposition to be made under | 233 |
section 2151.353 of the Revised Code. If the court at the | 234 |
adjudicatory hearing finds beyond a reasonable doubt that the | 235 |
child is a delinquent or unruly child or a juvenile traffic | 236 |
offender, the court shall proceed immediately, or at a postponed | 237 |
hearing, to hear the evidence as to the proper disposition to be | 238 |
made under section 2151.354 or
Chapter 2152. of the Revised Code.
| 239 |
If the court at the adjudicatory hearing finds beyond a reasonable | 240 |
doubt that the child is an unruly child for being an habitual | 241 |
truant,
or that the child is an unruly child for being an habitual | 242 |
truant
and that the parent, guardian, or other person having care | 243 |
of the
child has failed to cause the child's attendance at school | 244 |
in
violation of section 3321.38 of the Revised Code,
the court | 245 |
shall proceed to hold a hearing to hear the evidence as to the | 246 |
proper disposition to be made in regard to the child under | 247 |
division
(C)(1) of section 2151.354 of the
Revised Code and the | 248 |
proper action to take in regard
to the parent, guardian, or other | 249 |
person having care of the child under
division (C)(2) of section | 250 |
2151.354 of the Revised Code.
If the court at the adjudicatory | 251 |
hearing finds beyond a reasonable
doubt that the child is a | 252 |
delinquent child for being a chronic truant or
for being an | 253 |
habitual truant who previously has been adjudicated an unruly | 254 |
child for being an habitual truant, or that the child is a | 255 |
delinquent child for either of those reasons and the parent, | 256 |
guardian, or
other person having care of the child has failed to | 257 |
cause the
child's attendance at school in violation of section | 258 |
3321.38 of
the Revised Code, the court shall proceed to hold a | 259 |
hearing to
hear the evidence as to the proper disposition to be | 260 |
made in regard to
the child under division
(A)(6)(a) of section | 261 |
2152.19 of
the Revised Code
and the proper action to take in | 262 |
regard to the
parent, guardian, or other person having care of the | 263 |
child under division
(A)(6)(b) of section 2152.19 of
the Revised | 264 |
Code. | 265 |
If the court at the adjudicatory hearing finds beyond a | 266 |
reasonable doubt that the child is a delinquent child for having | 267 |
committed a violation of section 4511.741 of the Revised Code or a | 268 |
substantially similar municipal ordinance and also finds by a | 269 |
preponderance of the evidence that the child previously was | 270 |
adjudicated delinquent for having committed such a violation and | 271 |
that the parent, guardian, or other person having care of the | 272 |
child failed to prevent the latest such violation, the court shall | 273 |
order disposition to be made in regard to the child in accordance | 274 |
with section 2152.19 of the Revised Code. The court also shall | 275 |
find the parent, guardian, or other person having care of the | 276 |
child in contempt of the court order issued under that section and | 277 |
shall fine the parent, guardian, or other person having care of | 278 |
the child the amount specified in section 2152.19 of the Revised | 279 |
Code. | 280 |
(B)(1) If the court at an adjudicatory hearing determines | 299 |
that a child is an abused, neglected, or dependent child, the | 300 |
court shall not issue a dispositional order until after the court | 301 |
holds a separate dispositional hearing. The court may hold the | 302 |
dispositional
hearing for an adjudicated abused, neglected, or | 303 |
dependent child
immediately after the
adjudicatory hearing if all | 304 |
parties were served prior to the
adjudicatory hearing with all | 305 |
documents required for the
dispositional hearing. The | 306 |
dispositional hearing may not be held more
than thirty days after | 307 |
the adjudicatory hearing is held. The
court, upon the request of | 308 |
any party
or the guardian ad litem of the child, may continue a | 309 |
dispositional hearing for a reasonable time not to exceed the
time | 310 |
limits set forth in this division to enable a party to
obtain or | 311 |
consult counsel. The dispositional hearing shall not
be held more | 312 |
than ninety days after the date on which the
complaint in the case | 313 |
was filed. | 314 |
(3) After the conclusion of the dispositional hearing, the | 333 |
court shall enter an appropriate judgment within seven days and | 334 |
shall schedule the date for the hearing to be held pursuant to | 335 |
section 2151.415 of the Revised Code. The court may make any | 336 |
order of disposition that is set forth in section 2151.353 of the | 337 |
Revised Code. A copy of the judgment shall be given to each
party | 338 |
and to the child's guardian ad litem. If the judgment is | 339 |
conditional, the order shall state the conditions of the
judgment. | 340 |
If the child is not returned to the child's own
home, the court | 341 |
shall determine which school district shall bear the cost
of the | 342 |
child's education and shall comply
with section 2151.36 of the | 343 |
Revised Code. | 344 |
(F) In cases regarding abused, neglected, or dependent | 362 |
children, the court may admit any statement of a child that the | 363 |
court determines to be excluded by the hearsay rule if the | 364 |
proponent of the statement informs the adverse party of the | 365 |
proponent's
intention to offer the statement and of the | 366 |
particulars of the
statement, including the name of the declarant, | 367 |
sufficiently in
advance of the hearing to provide the party with a | 368 |
fair
opportunity to prepare to challenge, respond to, or defend | 369 |
against the statement, and the court determines all of the | 370 |
following: | 371 |
If a deposition taken under this division is intended to be | 387 |
offered as evidence at the hearing, it shall be filed with the | 388 |
court. Part or all of the deposition is admissible in evidence
if | 389 |
counsel for all parties had an opportunity and similar motive
at | 390 |
the time of the taking of the deposition to develop the
testimony | 391 |
by direct, cross, or redirect examination and the judge
determines | 392 |
that there is reasonable cause to believe that if the
child were | 393 |
to testify in person at the hearing, the child would
experience | 394 |
emotional trauma as a result of participating at the hearing. | 395 |
A period of electronically monitored house arrest imposed | 455 |
under
this division shall not extend beyond the child's | 456 |
twenty-first birthday. If a
court
imposes a period of | 457 |
electronically monitored house arrest upon a
child under this | 458 |
division, it shall require the child: to wear,
otherwise have | 459 |
attached to the child's person, or otherwise be
subject to | 460 |
monitoring by a certified electronic monitoring device
or to | 461 |
participate in the operation of and monitoring by a
certified | 462 |
electronic monitoring system; to remain in the child's
home or | 463 |
other specified premises for the entire period of
electronically | 464 |
monitored house arrest except when the court
permits the child to | 465 |
leave those premises to go to school or to
other specified | 466 |
premises; to be monitored by a central system that
can determine | 467 |
the child's location at designated times; to report
periodically | 468 |
to a person designated by the court; and to enter
into a written | 469 |
contract with the court agreeing to comply with all
requirements | 470 |
imposed by the court, agreeing to pay any fee imposed
by the court | 471 |
for the costs of the electronically monitored house
arrest, and | 472 |
agreeing to waive the right to receive credit for any
time served | 473 |
on electronically monitored house arrest toward the
period of any | 474 |
other dispositional order imposed upon the child if
the child | 475 |
violates any of the requirements of the dispositional
order of | 476 |
electronically monitored house arrest. The court also
may impose | 477 |
other reasonable requirements upon the child. | 478 |
(ii) Issue an order to the parent, guardian, or other | 532 |
person having care of the child requiring the parent, guardian, or | 533 |
other person having care of the child to prevent the child from | 534 |
committing another such violation. The order shall warn the | 535 |
parent, guardian, or other person having care of the child that in | 536 |
any subsequent adjudication of the child as a delinquent child for | 537 |
again committing a violation of section 4511.741 of the Revised | 538 |
Code or a substantially similar municipal ordinance, the court | 539 |
will be required to impose a fine of not more
than twenty thousand | 540 |
dollars on the parent, guardian, or other
person having care of | 541 |
the child for violation of the court order. | 542 |
(ii) Impose a fine of not more than twenty thousand dollars | 551 |
on the parent, guardian, or other person having care of the child | 552 |
for violating the court order described in division (A)(7)(a)(ii) | 553 |
of this section. Prior to imposing the fine, the court shall hear | 554 |
any testimony that the parent, guardian, or other person having | 555 |
care of the child offers that would explain why the parent, | 556 |
guardian, or other person having care of the child was not able to | 557 |
prevent the child from committing the subsequent violation. The | 558 |
court may hear this testimony at the same proceeding during which | 559 |
the child is adjudicated a delinquent child for having committed a | 560 |
violation of section 4511.741 of the Revised Code or a | 561 |
substantially similar municipal ordinance or at a separate | 562 |
proceeding. In determining the amount of the fine, the court | 563 |
shall give due consideration to this testimony, but shall assign | 564 |
such probative value to the testimony as the court determines | 565 |
proper. | 566 |
(2) The child is adjudicated a delinquent child for | 595 |
committing an
act that if committed by an adult would be a drug | 596 |
abuse offense
or for violating
division (B) of section 2917.11 of | 597 |
the Revised
Code, with the suspension continuing until the child | 598 |
attends and
satisfactorily completes a drug abuse or alcohol abuse | 599 |
education,
intervention, or treatment program specified by the | 600 |
court. During
the time the child is attending the program, the | 601 |
court shall retain any
temporary instruction permit, probationary | 602 |
driver's license, or driver's
license issued to the child, and the | 603 |
court shall return the permit or license
when the child | 604 |
satisfactorily completes the program. | 605 |
(D)(1) If a child is adjudicated a delinquent child for | 612 |
committing an act that would be a felony if committed by an adult | 613 |
and if the
child caused, attempted to cause, threatened to
cause, | 614 |
or created a risk of physical harm to the victim of the
act, the | 615 |
court, prior to issuing an order of disposition under
this | 616 |
section, shall order the preparation of a victim impact
statement | 617 |
by the probation department of the county in which the
victim of | 618 |
the act resides, by the court's own probation department, or by a | 619 |
victim assistance program that is operated by the state, a county, | 620 |
a municipal
corporation, or another governmental entity. The court | 621 |
shall
consider the victim impact statement in determining the | 622 |
order of
disposition to issue for the child. | 623 |
(2) Each victim impact statement shall identify the victim | 624 |
of the
act for which the child was adjudicated a delinquent child, | 625 |
itemize any
economic loss suffered by the victim as a result of | 626 |
the act,
identify any physical injury suffered by the victim as a | 627 |
result of
the act and the seriousness and permanence of the | 628 |
injury, identify
any change in the victim's personal welfare or | 629 |
familial
relationships as a result of the act and any | 630 |
psychological impact
experienced by the victim or the victim's | 631 |
family as a result of the act, and
contain any other
information | 632 |
related to the impact of the act upon the victim that the
court | 633 |
requires. | 634 |
(3) A victim impact statement shall be kept confidential and | 635 |
is
not a public record. However, the court may furnish copies of | 636 |
the statement
to the department of youth services if the | 637 |
delinquent child
is committed to the department or to both the | 638 |
adjudicated
delinquent child or the adjudicated delinquent child's | 639 |
counsel and
the prosecuting attorney. The copy of a victim impact | 640 |
statement
furnished by the court to the department pursuant to | 641 |
this section
shall be kept confidential and is not a public | 642 |
record. The copies of a victim
impact statement that are made | 643 |
available to the adjudicated delinquent child or the adjudicated | 644 |
delinquent child's counsel and the
prosecuting attorney pursuant | 645 |
to this division shall be returned to the
court by the person to | 646 |
whom they were made available
immediately following the imposition | 647 |
of an order of disposition for the
child under this chapter. | 648 |
(E) If a child is adjudicated a delinquent child for being a | 652 |
chronic
truant or an habitual truant who previously has been | 653 |
adjudicated an
unruly child for being an habitual truant and the | 654 |
court determines that
the parent, guardian, or other person having | 655 |
care of the child has
failed to cause the child's attendance at | 656 |
school in violation of
section 3321.38 of the Revised Code, in | 657 |
addition to any
order of
disposition it makes under this section, | 658 |
the court shall warn the
parent, guardian, or other person having | 659 |
care of the child that
any subsequent adjudication of the child as | 660 |
an unruly or
delinquent child for being an habitual or chronic | 661 |
truant may
result in a criminal charge against the parent, | 662 |
guardian, or other
person having care of the child for a violation | 663 |
of division (C) of
section 2919.21 or section 2919.24 of the | 664 |
Revised Code. | 665 |
(F)(1) During the period of a delinquent child's community | 666 |
control granted under this section, authorized probation officers | 667 |
who are
engaged within the scope of their supervisory duties
or | 668 |
responsibilities may search, with or without a warrant, the
person | 669 |
of the delinquent child, the place of residence of the
delinquent | 670 |
child, and a motor vehicle, another item of tangible or
intangible | 671 |
personal property, or other real property in which the
delinquent | 672 |
child has a right, title, or interest or for which the
delinquent | 673 |
child has the express or implied permission of a person with a | 674 |
right, title, or interest to use, occupy, or possess if the | 675 |
probation officers
have reasonable grounds to believe that the | 676 |
delinquent child is not abiding by
the law or otherwise is not | 677 |
complying with the conditions of the
delinquent child's community | 678 |
control. The court that places a
delinquent child on community | 679 |
control under this section shall
provide the delinquent child with | 680 |
a written notice that informs
the delinquent child that authorized | 681 |
probation officers who are
engaged within the scope of their | 682 |
supervisory duties or responsibilities may
conduct those types of | 683 |
searches during the period of community control if they
have | 684 |
reasonable grounds to believe that the delinquent child is
not | 685 |
abiding by the law or otherwise is not complying with the | 686 |
conditions of the delinquent child's community control. The court | 687 |
also shall provide the written notice described in division
(E)(2) | 688 |
of this section to each
parent, guardian, or custodian of the | 689 |
delinquent child who is described in
that
division. | 690 |
(2) The court that places a child on community control under | 691 |
this
section shall provide the child's parent, guardian, or other | 692 |
custodian
with a written notice that informs them that authorized | 693 |
probation
officers may conduct searches pursuant to division | 694 |
(E)(1) of this
section. The notice shall specifically state that | 695 |
a permissible
search might extend to a motor vehicle, another item | 696 |
of tangible
or intangible personal property, or a place of | 697 |
residence or other
real property in which a notified parent, | 698 |
guardian, or custodian
has a right, title, or interest and that | 699 |
the parent, guardian, or
custodian expressly or impliedly permits | 700 |
the child to use, occupy,
or possess. | 701 |
(G) If a juvenile court commits a delinquent child to the | 702 |
custody of any person, organization, or entity pursuant to this | 703 |
section and if the delinquent act for which the child is so | 704 |
committed is a sexually oriented offense, the court in the order | 705 |
of disposition
shall inform the person, organization, or entity | 706 |
that it is the
preferred course of action in this state that the | 707 |
child be
provided treatment as described in division (A)(2) of | 708 |
section 5139.13
of the Revised Code and shall encourage the | 709 |
person, organization,
or entity to provide that treatment. | 710 |
(6) If, after making a disposition under divisions (A)(1)
to | 751 |
(5) of this section, the court finds upon further

the ability of an offender sentenced pursuant to division (A)(1), | 1522 |
(2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), or (8) of this section to continue | 1523 |
the

or (8) of this
section shall
impose any sanction other than a | 1566 |
mandatory term of local incarceration or
mandatory prison term to | 1567 |
apply to the
offender until after the offender has served the | 1568 |
mandatory term of local
incarceration or mandatory prison term of | 1569 |
sixty or one hundred twenty consecutive days required to be | 1570 |
imposed
pursuant to division
(A)(4) or (8) of this section, and no | 1571 |
court that imposes a sentence of imprisonment and a period of | 1572 |
electronically monitored house arrest upon an offender under | 1573 |
division (A)(2), (3), (6), or (7) of
this section shall suspend | 1574 |
any portion
of the sentence or place the offender in any treatment | 1575 |
program in
lieu of imprisonment or electronically monitored house | 1576 |

Notwithstanding any section of the Revised Code that | 1577 |
authorizes
the suspension of the imposition or execution of a | 1578 |
sentence or
the placement of an offender in any treatment program | 1579 |
in lieu of
imprisonment, no court, except as specifically | 1580 |
authorized by

(12) No court shall impose the alternative sentence of a | 1595 |
term of imprisonment plus a term of electronically monitored house | 1596 |
arrest permitted to be imposed by division (A)(2), (3), (6),
or | 1597 |
(7) of this
section, unless within sixty days of the date of | 1598 |
sentencing, the
court issues a written finding, entered into the | 1599 |
record, that due
to the unavailability of space at the | 1600 |
incarceration facility
where the offender is required to serve the | 1601 |
term of imprisonment
imposed upon the offender, the offender will | 1602 |
not be able to
commence
serving the term of imprisonment within | 1603 |
the sixty-day period
following the date of sentencing. If the | 1604 |
court issues such a
written finding, the court may impose the | 1605 |
alternative sentence
comprised
of a term of imprisonment and a | 1606 |
term of electronically monitored
house arrest permitted to be | 1607 |
imposed by division (A)(2),
(3), (6), or (7) of this section. | 1608 |
(3) Notwithstanding section 2929.21 of the Revised Code, | 1658 |
upon a finding that such person operated a motor vehicle in a | 1659 |

section 4511.98 of the Revised Code, the court, in addition to
all | 1661 |
other penalties provided by law, shall impose a fine of two
times | 1662 |
the usual amount imposed for the violation. No court shall
impose | 1663 |
a fine of two times the usual amount imposed for the
violation | 1664 |
upon an offender who alleges, in an affidavit filed
with the court | 1665 |
prior to the offender's sentencing, that the offender is
indigent | 1666 |
and is unable to pay the fine imposed pursuant to this division, | 1667 |
provided the court determines the offender is an indigent person | 1668 |
and is unable to pay the fine. | 1669 |
(E) Whenever a person is found guilty in a court of record | 1676 |
of a violation of section 4511.761, 4511.762, or 4511.77 of the | 1677 |
Revised Code, the trial judge, in addition to or independent of | 1678 |
all other penalties provided by law, may suspend for any period
of | 1679 |
time not exceeding three years, or revoke the license of any | 1680 |
person, partnership, association, or corporation, issued under | 1681 |
section 4511.763 of the Revised Code. | 1682 |
(K) Except as otherwise provided in this division, whoever | 1724 |
violates division (E) of section 4511.11, division (A) or (C) of | 1725 |
section 4511.17, or section 4511.18 of the Revised Code is guilty | 1726 |
of a misdemeanor of the third degree. If a violation of division | 1727 |
(A) or (C) of section 4511.17 of the Revised Code creates a risk | 1728 |
of physical harm to any person, the offender is guilty of a | 1729 |
misdemeanor of the first degree. A violation of division (A) or | 1730 |
(C) of section 4511.17 of the Revised Code that causes serious | 1731 |
physical harm to property that is owned, leased, or controlled by | 1732 |

degree. | 1733 |
Every fine collected under this division shall be paid by the | 1804 |
clerk of the
court to the political subdivision in which the | 1805 |

Except as provided in this division, the | 1806 |
political subdivision shall use the
fine moneys it receives under | 1807 |
this division to pay the expenses it incurs in
complying with
the | 1808 |
signage and notice requirements contained in division (E) of | 1809 |

assistive technology programs for persons with disabilities, and | 1813 |
for
public improvements within the political subdivision that | 1814 |
benefit
or assist persons with disabilities, if governmental | 1815 |
agencies or
nonprofit organizations offer the programs. | 1816 |
Sec. 5579.11. (A) There is hereby created in the state | 1819 |
treasury the highway, bridge, and overpass vandal fence fund | 1820 |
consisting of fines imposed under section 2152.19 of the Revised | 1821 |
