Hearings & Proceedings
4. Depositions
Ohio State Board of Pharmacy v. Frantz (1990), 51 Ohio St.3d 143. The mandatory language of R.C. 119.09 pertains to securing attendance of witnesses and production of books, records, or papers at the request of a party for the purpose of conducting an adjudication hearing; it does not provide for prehearing discovery depositions by a party to an adjudication hearing.
Frawley v. Mihm (1993), 91 Ohio App.3d 275. "Cost of the deposition," for purposes of statute requiring bureau of workers' compensation to pay costs of physician's depositions and cost of copies of such depositions in cases in which person claiming right to participate in workers' comepnsation fund fails to establish that right on appeal, can encompass both cost of videotaping and transcribing videotaped deposition. (NOTE: SPBR does not have a specific statute to defray costs of exam.)
