DECEMBER 6, 2018 Medical negligence legislation headed for passage A much watered-down medical negligence bill this week passed the Ohio Senate and will soon be sent to the Governor. OAJ had great success in advocating for amendments to the bill, including one more amendment added in the Senate. OAJ originally opposed the bill, but changed its position to neutral because of the many significant amendments that were added.

OAJ opposes the legislation and is working to kill it.

The bill consolidates the commissioning of notaries under the Secretary of State’s office and authorizes electronic notarization. Attorneys’ notary power is grandfathered, but new attorneys must enroll in some education classes. The bill allows organizations, like county bar associations, to continue to offer training and testing in compliance with state-established guidelines.
