Ohio Code § 1310.08

§ 1310.08.

(A) A lease contract is not enforceable by way of action or defense unless one of the

following applies: (1) The total payments to be made under the lease contract, excluding payments for options

to renew or buy, are less than one thousand dollars; (2) There is a writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought or by

that party's authorized agent, sufficient to indicate that a lease contract has been

made between the parties and to describe the goods leased and the lease term. (B) Any description of leased goods or of the lease term is sufficient and satisfies

division (A)(2) of this section, whether or not it is specific, if it reasonably identifies

what is described. (C) A writing is not insufficient because it omits or incorrectly states a term agreed

upon, but the lease contract is not enforceable under division (A)(2) of this section

beyond the lease term and the quantity of goods shown in the writing. (D) A lease contract that does not satisfy the requirements of division (A) of this section

but that is valid in other respects is enforceable as follows: (1) If the goods are to be specially manufactured or obtained for the lessee and are

not suitable for lease or sale to others in the ordinary course of the lessor's business,

and the lessor, before notice of repudiation is received and under circumstances that

reasonably indicate that the goods are for the lessee, has made either a substantial

beginning of their manufacture or commitments for their procurement; (2) If the party against whom enforcement is sought admits in that party's pleading,

in testimony, or otherwise in court that a lease contract was made.  The lease contract is not enforceable under division (D)(2) of this section beyond

the quantity of goods admitted. (3) With respect to goods that have been received and accepted by the lessee. (E) The lease term under a lease contract referred to in division (D) of this section

is one of the following: (1) If there is a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought or by

that party's authorized agent specifying the lease term, the term so specified; (2) If the party against whom enforcement is sought admits in that party's pleading,

in testimony, or otherwise in court a lease term, the term so admitted; (3) A reasonable lease term.
