(A) Sentence may be suspended if a person, after conviction under section 2919.21 of the Revised Code and before sentence under that section, appears before the court of common pleas
in which the conviction took place and enters into bond to the state in a sum fixed
by the court at not less than five hundred nor more than one thousand dollars, with
sureties approved by the court, conditioned that the person will furnish the child
or other dependent with necessary or proper home, care, food, and clothing, or will

on or after April 15, 1985, or modified on or after December 1, 1986, is found in
contempt of court for failure to make support payments under the order, the court
that makes the finding, in addition to any other penalty or remedy imposed, shall
assess all court costs arising out of the contempt proceeding against the person and
require the person to pay any reasonable attorney's fees of any adverse party, as
determined by the court, that arose in relation to the act of contempt.
