Statue of Limitation Changes Due to COVID-19
On March 27, 2020, Ohio Governor DeWine signed into law House Bill 197, which tolls the statute of limitations for any administrative action or proceeding set to expire between March 9, 2020, and July 30, 2020. The bill applies retroactively to the date of the emergency declared by Executive Order 2020-01D, issued on March 9, 2020, and expires on the date the period of emergency ends or July 30, 2020, whichever is sooner.
