Terms Used In Ohio Code 2109.58

  • Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts

  • Fraud: Intentional deception resulting in injury to another.
  • Person: includes an individual, corporation, business trust, estate, trust, partnership, and association. See Ohio Code 1.59

Except as provided by section 2115.16 of the Revised Code, exceptions to the inventory of a fiduciary may be filed at any time within six months after the return of the inventory by any person interested in the entrusted property or in any of the property included in the inventory, but the six-month period shall not apply in case of fraud or concealment of assets. At the hearing, the fiduciary and any witness may be examined under oath. The probate court shall enter its finding on the journal and tax the costs as may be equitable.
