Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2705.07

Proceedings when party released on bail fails to appear

Effective: October 1, 1953; Latest Legislation: House Bill 1 - 100th General Assembly

If the party released on bail under section 2705.04 of the Revised Code fails to appear upon the day named, the court may issue another order of arrest, or order the bond for his appearance to be prosecuted, or both. If the bond is prosecuted, the measure of damages in the action is the extent of loss or injury sustained by the aggrieved party by reason of the misconduct for which the contempt was prosecuted, and the costs of the proceeding. Such recovery is for the benefit of the party injured.
