§ 1310.77.
(A) If a third party so deals with goods that have been identified to a lease contract
as to cause actionable injury to a party to the lease contract, the lessor has a right
of action against the third party, and the lessee also has a right of action against
the third party if the lessee has a security interest in the goods, has an insurable

the injury assumed that risk as against the lessor and the goods have been converted
or destroyed. (B) If, at the time of the injury, the plaintiff did not bear the risk of loss as against
the other party to the lease contract and there is no arrangement between them for
disposition of the recovery, his suit or settlement, subject to his own interest,
is as a fiduciary for the other party to the lease contract. (C) Either party with the consent of the other may sue for the benefit of whom it may
concern.
