As of September 16, 1997, House Bill 39 was passed by the Ohio Legislature, allowing Clerk of Courts to accept credit cards as a form of payment. We accept Visa and MasterCard, cash, certified checks, and money orders. As of October 1, 2002, personal checks are now accepted payable to: Clerk of Courts. A $30.00 fee will be charged for all returned checks. A 4% fee will be assessed to all Credit Card customers pursuant to O.R.C. 301.28(A). Business and Dealer Checks will still require a letter of guarantee on file from their respective bank, which must be renewed every two years.
