Status: in_force

October 1, 1998 House Bill 361 - 122nd General Assembly (A) A health insuring corporation that does not allow direct access to all specialists shall establish and implement a procedure by which an enrollee may receive a standing referral to a specialist. The procedure shall provide for a standing referral to a specialist if a primary care provider determines in consultation with a specialist that an enrollee needs continuing care from a specialist. The referral shall be made pursuant to a treatment plan approved by the health insuring corporation in consultation with the primary care provider, a specialist, and the enrollee. The treatment plan may limit the number of visits to the specialist, limit the period of time that the visits are authorized, or require that the specialist provide the primary care provider with regular reports on the health care provided to the enrollee. (B) A health insuring corporation shall establish and implement a procedure by which an enrollee with a condition or disease that requires specialized medical care over a prolonged period of time and is life-threatening, degenerative, or disabling may receive a referral to a specialist who has expertise in treating the condition or disease for the purpose of having the specialist coordinate the enrollee's health care. The procedure shall provide for such a referral if a primary care provider determines in consultation with the specialist that the enrollee needs the specialist's expertise. The referral shall be made pursuant to a treatment plan approved by the health insuring corporation in consultation with the primary care provider, the specialist, and the enrollee. After the referral is made, the specialist is authorized to provide health care services to the enrollee in the same manner as the enrollee's primary care provider, subject to the terms of the treatment plan. (C) The determinations described in divisions (A) and (B) of this section shall be made within three business days after a request for the determination is made by the enrollee or the enrollee's primary care provider and all appropriate medical records and other items of information necessary to make the determination have been provided. (D) Once a determination in favor of a referral is made, the referral shall be made within four business days after the determination. This time period does not apply to standing referrals involving a rare or unusual condition for which appropriate specialists are limited in number or otherwise difficult to identify. Divisions (A) and (B) of this section do not require a health insuring corporation to permit an enrollee to elect referral to a specialist who is not employed by or under contract with the health insuring corporation for the provision of health care services to the health insuring corporation's enrollees.

Status: in_force

April 12, 2021 Senate Bill 276 - 133rd General Assembly (A) On application to a court of competent jurisdiction by any judgment creditor of a member or assignee, the court may charge the membership interest of the judgment debtor with payment of the unsatisfied amount of the judgment with interest. To the extent so charged and after the limited liability company has been served with the charging order, the judgment creditor has only the right to receive any distribution or distributions to which the judgment debtor would otherwise be entitled in respect of the membership interest. (B) After the limited liability company is served with a charging order, the limited liability company or any member shall be entitled to pay to or deposit with the clerk of the court so issuing the charging order any distribution or distributions to which the judgment debtor would otherwise be entitled in respect of the charged membership interest, and the payment or deposit shall discharge the limited liability company and the judgment debtor from liability for the amount so paid or deposited and any interest that might accrue thereon. Upon receipt of the payment or deposit, the clerk of the court shall notify the judgment creditor of the receipt of the payment or deposit. The judgment creditor shall, after any payment or deposit into the court, petition the court for payment of so much of the amount paid or deposited as may be necessary to pay the judgment creditor's judgment. To the extent the court has excess amounts paid or deposited on hand after the payment to the judgment creditor, the excess amounts paid or deposited shall be distributed to the judgment debtor, and the charging order shall be extinguished. The court may, in its discretion, order the clerk to deposit, pending the judgment creditor's petition, any money paid or deposited with the clerk, in an interest bearing account at a bank authorized to receive deposits of public funds. (C) A charging order constitutes a lien on the judgment debtor's membership interest. (D) Subject to division (C) of this section, both of the following apply: (1) A judgment debtor that is a member retains the rights of a member and remains subject to all duties and obligations of a member. (2) A judgment debtor that is an assignee retains the rights of an assignee and remains subject to all duties and obligations of an assignee. (E) This chapter does not deprive any member or assignee of the benefit of any exemption laws applicable to the member's or assignee's membership interest. (F) This section provides the sole and exclusive remedy by which a judgment creditor of a member or assignee may satisfy a judgment out of the judgment debtor's membership interest, and the judgment creditor shall have no right to foreclose, under this chapter or any other law, upon the charging order, the charging order lien, or the judgment debtor's membership interest. A judgment creditor of a member or assignee has no right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the judgment debtor's membership interest or the property of a limited liability company. Court orders for actions or requests for accounts and inquiries that the judgment debtor might have made to the limited liability company are not available to a judgment creditor attempting to satisfy the judgment out of the judgment debtor's membership interest and may not be ordered by a court.

(B) Any claim existing or action or proceeding pending by or against the unincorporated nonprofit association or that would have accrued against it may be prosecuted to judgment with right of appeal as in other cases, but any proceeding, execution, or process, or the satisfaction or performance of any order, judgment, or decree, may be stayed as provided in section 1745.53 of the Revised Code. (C) Any process, notice, or demand against the unincorporated nonprofit association may be served by delivering a copy to a manager, liquidator, or person having charge of its assets or, if none of those persons can be found, to the statutory agent.

Subject to the orders of courts of this state having jurisdiction over the association, the managers shall proceed as speedily as is practicable to a complete winding up of the affairs of the association and, to the extent necessary or expedient to that end, shall exercise all the authority of the association.

(b) The remaining assets not held in trust shall be applied so far as is feasible towards carrying out the purposes stated in its governing principles. (c) In the event and to the extent that in the judgment of the managers it is not feasible to apply the assets as provided in divisions (D)(2)(a) and (b) of this section, the assets shall be applied as may be directed by the court of common pleas of the county in this state in which the principal office of the association is located, in an action brought for that purpose by the managers or any one of them or by the association, to which action the attorney general shall be a party, in an action brought by the attorney general in a court of competent jurisdiction, or in an action brought as provided in section 1745.53 of the Revised Code for the purpose of winding up the affairs of the association under the supervision of the court. (3) In the case of a mutual benefit association, any remaining assets shall be distributed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the governing principles of the association or, to the extent that no such provision is made, the assets shall be distributed pursuant to a plan of distribution adopted by the members of the association at a meeting held for the purpose of voting on dissolution or any adjournment of the meeting. If no plan of distribution is so adopted by the members, those remaining assets shall be distributed pursuant to a plan of distribution adopted by the managers. If no plan of distribution is so adopted by the members or managers, the remaining assets shall be applied in the manner directed by the court of common pleas of the county in this state in which the principal office of the association is located, in an action brought for that purpose by the mutual benefit association, by the managers or any one of them, or by the attorney general in a court of competent jurisdiction or in an action brought as provided in section 1745.53 of the Revised Code for the purpose of winding up the affairs of the association under the supervision of the court. (E) Without limiting the authority of the managers, any action within the purview of this section that is authorized or approved by the members at a meeting held for that purpose shall be conclusive for all purposes upon all of the members of the association, except that nothing in this section shall impair the jurisdiction of courts of competent jurisdiction to enforce the duties of a public benefit association with respect to the application of its assets towards its public or charitable purposes, or impair the power of the state, acting through the attorney general, to require those assets to be applied, as nearly as may be, towards its public or charitable purposes. (F) All deeds and other instruments of the unincorporated nonprofit association shall be in the name of the association and shall be executed, acknowledged, and delivered by a manager of the association. (G) At any time during the winding up of its affairs, the unincorporated nonprofit association by its managers may make application to the court of common pleas of the county in this state in which the principal office of the association is located to have the winding up continued under supervision of the court as provided in section 1745.53 of the Revised Code.

(b) The form of consideration to be received by holders of each particular class or series of outstanding shares of the issuing public corporation in the Chapter 1704. transaction, apart from any portion that is interest, is in cash or, if the interested shareholder previously purchased shares of that class or series, is in the same form the interested shareholder previously paid to acquire the largest number of shares of that class or series, but in no event shall the fair market value of the consideration received by a holder of a share of a particular class or series of outstanding shares in the Chapter 1704. transaction be less than the current fair market value of a share of the issuing public corporation of the same class or series. (B)(1) For purposes of making a determination under division (A)(4)(a) of this section, the figure to be used in division (A)(4)(a)(i) of this section shall be the highest, after taking into account interest to the extent provided in division (B)(2) of this section, of the following: (a) The fair market value per share on the announcement date of the Chapter 1704. transaction; (b) The fair market value per share on the interested shareholder's share acquisition date; (c) The highest price per share paid, including brokerage commissions, transfer taxes, and soliciting dealers' fees, by the interested shareholder, or by an affiliate or associate of the interested shareholder, for shares of the same class or series within the three years immediately before and including the announcement date of the Chapter 1704. transaction; (d) The highest price per share paid, including brokerage commissions, transfer taxes, and soliciting dealers' fees, by the interested shareholder, or by an affiliate or associate of the interested shareholder, for shares of the same class or series within the three years immediately before and including the interested shareholder's share acquisition date.

Status: in_force

March 17, 2000 House Bill 78 - 123rd General Assembly The directors may declare dividends and distributions on outstanding shares of the corporation, subject to the following provisions: (A) A dividend or distribution may be paid in cash, property, or shares of the corporation. The dividend or distribution shall not exceed the combination of the surplus of the corporation and the difference between the following: (1) The reduction in surplus that results from the immediate recognition of the transition obligation under statement of financial accounting standards no. 106 (SFAS no. 106), issued by the financial accounting standards board; (2) The aggregate amount of the transition obligation that would have been recognized as of the date of the declaration of a dividend or distribution if the corporation had elected to amortize its recognition of the transition obligation under statement of financial accounting standards no. 106. (B) A dividend or distribution may be paid in treasury shares or in authorized but unissued shares. If paid in shares with par value, there shall be transferred from any surplus, however created, to stated capital, the amount, if any, that is necessary in order that the stated capital represented by the outstanding shares with par value, after giving effect to the dividend or distribution, will be equal to the aggregate par value of the shares, or, if the directors so determine, a greater amount shall be so transferred. If paid in shares without par value, there shall be transferred from any surplus, however created, to stated capital, only the amount, if any, that the directors determine. (C) No dividend or distribution shall be paid to the holders of shares of any class in violation of the rights of the holders of shares of any other class, or when the corporation is insolvent or there is reasonable ground to believe that by such payment it would be rendered insolvent. (D) No dividend or distribution on shares of any class shall be paid in shares of another class if any of the authorized shares of the latter class are already outstanding, unless either the articles so provide or the payment is authorized by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares of the class in which payment is to be made. (E) If the articles of a corporation engaged in whole or in part in the exploitation of mines, timber, oil wells, gas wells, quarries, or other natural resources so provide, the corporation may compute its surplus for the purpose of paying dividends and distributions without making any deduction or allowance for the depletion of such assets incidental to the exploitation and sale of them. (F) When any portion of a dividend or distribution is paid out of capital surplus, the corporation, at the time of paying the dividend or distribution, shall notify the shareholders receiving the dividend or distribution as to the kind of surplus out of which the dividend or distribution is paid. (G) When a dividend or distribution is to be paid in authorized but unissued shares of the corporation, the directors may provide that the dividend or distribution shall also be paid on treasury shares of the same class. (H) The effect of a dividend or distribution is measured as of the date the dividend or distribution is authorized if the payment occurs one hundred twenty days or less after the date of authorization or as of the date the payment is made if it occurs more than one hundred twenty days after the date of authorization. If a corporation pays a dividend or distribution by delivering an obligation or other evidence of indebtedness, the date of the delivery is the date upon which the effect of the dividend or distribution is measured. (I) A corporation's indebtedness to a shareholder incurred by reason of a dividend or distribution made in accordance with this section is at parity with the corporation's indebtedness to its general, unsecured creditors, except to the extent subordinated by agreement.

The process for dissolving a special improvement district or repealing an improvements or services plan may be initiated by a petition signed by members of the district who own at least twenty per cent of the appraised value of the real property located in the district, excluding church property or real property owned by the federal government, the state, or a county, township, municipal corporation, or park district, unless the church, county, township, municipal corporation, or park district has specifically requested in writing that the property be included in the district, and filed with the municipal executive, if any, and the legislative authorities of all the participating political subdivisions of the district. As used in this section, "appraised value" means the taxable value established by the county auditor for purposes of real estate taxation. No later than forty-five days after such a petition is filed, the members of the district shall meet to consider it. Notice of the meeting shall be given as provided in section 1710.05 of the Revised Code. Upon the affirmative vote of members who collectively own more than fifty per cent of the appraised value of the real property in the district that may be subject to assessment under division (C) of section 1710.06 of the Revised Code, the district shall be dissolved, or the plan shall be repealed, as applicable. No rights or obligations of any person under any contract, or in relation to any bonds, notes, or assessments made under this chapter, shall be affected by the dissolution of the district or the repeal of a plan, except with the consent of that person or by order of a court with jurisdiction over the matter. Upon dissolution of a district, any assets or rights of the district, after payment of all bonds, notes, or other obligations of the district, shall be deposited in a special account in the treasury of each participating political subdivision, prorated among all participating political subdivisions to reflect the percentage of the district's territory within that political subdivision, to be used for the benefit of the territory that made up the district. Once the members have approved the repeal of a plan, all bonds, notes, and other obligations of the district associated with the plan shall be paid. Thereafter, the plan shall be repealed. Upon receipt of proof that all bonds, notes, and other obligations have been paid and that the plan has been repealed, the participating political subdivisions shall terminate any levies imposed to pay for costs of the plan.

Status: in_force

August 6, 2008 House Bill 332 - 127th General Assembly (A) If a person, by words or conduct, purports to be a partner, or consents to being represented by another as a partner, in a partnership or with one or more persons not partners, the purported partner is liable to any person to whom the representation is made if that person, relying on the representation, enters into a transaction with the actual or purported partnership. If the representation, either by the purported partner or by a person with the purported partner's consent, is made in a public manner, the purported partner is liable to a person who relies upon the purported partnership even if the purported partner is not aware of being held out as a partner to the claimant. If partnership liability results, the purported partner is liable with respect to that liability as if the purported partner were a partner. If no partnership liability results, the purported partner is liable with respect to that liability jointly and severally with any other person consenting to the representation. (B) If a person is represented to be a partner in an existing partnership, or with one or more persons not partners, the purported partner is an agent of persons consenting to the representation to bind them to the same extent and in the same manner as if the purported partner were a partner, with respect to persons who enter into transactions in reliance upon the representation. If all of the partners of the existing partnership consent to the representation, a partnership act or obligation results. If fewer than all of the partners of the existing partnership consent to the representation, the person acting and the partners consenting to the representation are jointly and severally liable. (C) A person is not liable as a partner merely because the person is named by another in a statement of partnership authority. (D) A person does not continue to be liable as a partner merely because of a failure to file a statement of dissociation or to amend a statement of partnership authority to indicate the partner's dissociation from the partnership. (E) Except as otherwise provided in divisions (A) and (B) of this section, persons who are not partners as to each other are not liable as partners as to other persons.

Status: in_force

August 6, 2008 House Bill 332 - 127th General Assembly (A) Except as otherwise provided in division (B)(2) of this section, a domestic partnership may be converted into a domestic or foreign entity other than a domestic partnership pursuant to a written declaration of conversion as this section provides if that conversion is permitted by the chapter of the Revised Code or by the laws under which the converted entity will exist. (B)(1) The written declaration of conversion shall set forth all of the following: (a) The name and form of entity that is being converted, the name of the entity into which the entity will be converted, the form of the converted entity, and the jurisdiction of formation of the converted entity; (b) If the converted entity is a domestic entity, the complete terms of all documents required under the applicable chapter of the Revised Code to form the converted entity; (c) If the converted entity is a foreign entity, all of the following: (i) The complete terms of all documents required under the law governing the converted entity's formation; (ii) The consent of the converted entity to be sued and served with process in this state, and the irrevocable appointment of the secretary of state as the agent of the converted entity to accept service of process in this state to enforce against the converted entity any obligation of the converting partnership or to enforce the rights of a dissenting partner of the converting partnership; (iii) If the converted entity desires to transact business in this state, the information required to qualify or be licensed under the applicable chapter of the Revised Code. (d) All other statements and matters required to be set forth in the declaration of conversion by the applicable chapter of the Revised Code if the converted entity is a domestic entity, or by the laws under which the converted entity will be formed, if the converted entity is a foreign entity; (e) The terms of the conversion, the mode of carrying those terms into effect, and the manner and basis of converting the interests of shares of the converting partnership into, or exchanging the interests in the converting partnership for, interests, evidences of indebtedness, other securities, cash, rights, or any other property or any combination of interests, evidences of indebtedness, other securities, cash, rights, or any other property of the converted entity. (2) No conversion or exchange described in this section shall be effected if there are reasonable grounds to believe that the conversion or exchange would render the converted entity unable to pay its obligations as the obligations become due in the usual course of its affairs. (C) The written declaration of conversion may set forth any of the following: (1) The effective date of the conversion, to be on or after the filing date of the certificate of conversion pursuant to section 1776.74 of the Revised Code; (2) A provision authorizing the converting partnership to abandon the proposed conversion by an action of the partners of the converting partnership that is taken prior to filing the certificate of conversion pursuant to section 1776.74 of the Revised Code; (3) A statement of, or a statement of the method to be used to determine, the fair value of the assets owned by the converting partnership at the time of the conversion; (4) A listing of the parties to the declaration of conversion, in addition to the converting entity; (5) Any additional provision necessary or desirable with respect to the proposed conversion or the converted entity. (D) No declaration of conversion is effective unless adopted by the partners. (E)(1) Each partner, whether or not entitled to vote or act, shall be given written notice of any meeting of partners of a partnership or any proposed action by the partners that is to adopt a declaration of conversion. The notice shall be given to the partners either as provided in writing in the partnership agreement, by mail at the address of each partner as it appears on the records of the partnership, or in person. Unless the partnership agreement provides a shorter or longer period, notice shall be given not less than seven nor more than sixty days before the meeting or the effective date of the action. (2) A copy or a summary of the material provisions of the declaration of conversion shall accompany the notice described in division (E)(1) of this section. (F) The unanimous vote or action of the partners of a converting partnership, or a different number or proportion as provided in writing in the partnership agreement, is required to adopt a declaration of conversion. If the declaration of conversion would effect or authorize any action that under any applicable law or the partnership agreement could be effected or authorized only pursuant to a specified vote or action of the partners or a class or group of partners, the same vote or action as would be required to effect that change or authorize that action is necessary to adopt or approve the declaration of conversion. (G)(1) At any time before the filing of the certificate of conversion pursuant to section 1776.74 of the Revised Code, the conversion may be abandoned by all of the partners of the converting partnership or by any representatives authorized to do so by the declaration of conversion, or by the same vote as was required to adopt the declaration of conversion. (2) The declaration of conversion may contain a provision authorizing less than all of the partners to amend the declaration of conversion at any time before the filing of the certificate of conversion pursuant to section 1776.74 of the Revised Code, except that after the partners adopt the declaration of conversion, approval of all of the partners is necessary to amend the declaration of conversion to do any of the following: (a) Alter or change the amount or kind of interests, shares, evidences of indebtedness, other securities, cash, rights, or any other property to be received by the partners of the converting partnership in conversion of, or exchange for, their interests; (b) Alter or change any term of the organizational documents of the converted entity except for alterations or changes that are adopted with the vote or action of the persons the vote or action of which would be required for the alteration or change after the conversion; (c) Alter or change any other terms and conditions of the declaration of conversion if any of the alterations or changes, alone or in the aggregate, materially and adversely would affect the partners or any class or group of partners of the converting partnership.
