2024Hoover threatened Cannon with jail time on a nonjailable offense if he did not pay his fines and costs immediately, though at his disciplinary hearing, Hoover characterized his statements as “[e]ncouraging” Cannon to pay and insisted that he “had not planned on putting him in jail.” Nonetheless, Hoover ignored R.C. 2947.14 by failing to inform Cannon of his right to counsel, failing to hold an ability-to-pay hearing, and failing to segregate the costs from the fines, see Swift, 2005-Ohio-1599, at ¶ 29 .

2019Summit No. 22819, 2006-Ohio-1317, ¶ 70 , the current statute, R.C. 3105.73(B) instead provides that, “[i]n determining whether an award is equitable, the court may consider the parties’ income, the conduct of the parties, and any other relevant factors the court deems appropriate, but it may not consider the parties’ assets.” Thus, the trial court is not even mandated to consider the parties’ incomes.
