Ohio Code § 1310.53

§ 1310.53.

(A) Damages based on market rent as provided in section 1310.65 or 1310.74 of the Revised Code are determined according to the rent for the use of the goods concerned for a lease

term identical to the remaining lease term of the original lease agreement and prevailing

at the times specified in those sections. (B) If evidence of rent for the use of the goods concerned for a lease term identical

to the remaining lease term of the original lease agreement and prevailing at the

times or places described in sections 1310.01 to 1310.78 of the Revised Code is not readily available, the rent prevailing within any reasonable time before or

after the time described or at any other place or for a different lease term that,

in commercial judgment or under usage of trade, would serve as a reasonable substitute

for the one described may be used, making any proper allowance for the difference,

including the cost of transporting the goods to or from the other place. (C) Evidence of a relevant rent prevailing at a time or place or for a lease term other

than the one described in sections 1310.01 to 1310.78 of the Revised Code offered by one party is not admissible unless and until he has given the other party

notice that the court finds sufficient to prevent unfair surprise. (D) If the prevailing rent or value of any goods regularly leased in any established

market is in issue, reports in official publications or trade journals or in newspapers

or periodicals of general circulation published as the reports of that market are

admissible in evidence.  The circumstances of the preparation of the report may be shown to affect its weight

but not its admissibility.
