Ohio Code § 1337.03. Reproduced from the official Ohio Revised Code, with a citation summary, verification link, and related provisions.

§ 1337.03.

No deed executed by a person acting for another, under a power of attorney, acknowledged,

and recorded, is invalid or defective because he, instead of his principal, is named

in such deed as such attorney as grantor;  nor because his name, as such attorney,

is subscribed to such deed, instead of the name of his principal;  nor because the

certificate of acknowledgment, instead of setting forth that the deed was acknowledged

by the principal, by his attorney, sets forth that it was acknowledged by the person

who executed it, as such attorney.  All such deeds shall be as valid and effectual, in all respects, within the authority

conferred by such powers of attorney, as if they had been executed by the principals

of such attorneys, in person.
