(B) A creditor or assignee shall not be held liable in any action brought under section 1349.29 of the Revised Code, if the creditor or assignee shows by a preponderance of evidence that the compliance failure was not intentional and resulted from a bona fide error notwithstanding the maintenance of procedures reasonably adapted to avoid any such error. For purposes of this division, “bona fide error” includes, but is not limited to, clerical, calculation, computer malfunction and programming, and printing errors. “Bona fide error” does not include an error of legal judgment with respect to a person’s obligations under sections 1349.25 to 1349.36 of the Revised Code.
