Full text of Ohio Ohio Revised Code § 4121.23, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 4121.23.
Any employer or other person interested either because of ownership in or occupation
of any property affected by any order of the bureau of workers' compensation, or otherwise,
may petition for a hearing on the reasonableness and lawfulness of any bureau order. The petition for hearing shall be by verified petition, filed with the bureau, setting
out specifically and in full detail the order upon which a hearing is desired and
every reason why the order is unreasonable or unlawful, and every issue to be considered
by the bureau on the hearing. The petitioner shall be deemed to have finally waived all objection to any irregularities
and illegalities in the order upon which a hearing is sought other than those set
forth in the petition. All hearings of the bureau shall be open to the public. Upon receipt of the petition, if the issues raised in the petition have theretofore
been adequately considered, the bureau shall determine the same by confirming, without
hearing, its previous determination, or if a hearing is necessary to determine the
issues raised, the bureau shall order a hearing thereon and consider and determine
the matters in question at the time prescribed. Notice of the time and place of the hearing shall be given to the petitioner and to
such other persons as the bureau finds directly interested in the decision. Upon an investigation, if it is found that the order complained of is unlawful or
unreasonable, the bureau shall substitute a lawful and reasonable order therefor. Whenever at the time of final determination upon hearing it is found that further
time is reasonably necessary for compliance with the order of the bureau, the bureau
shall grant such time as is reasonably necessary for compliance.
