§ 2103.041.
In any action involving the judicial sale of real property for the purpose of satisfying
the claims of creditors of an owner of an interest in the property, the spouse of
the owner may be made a party to the action, and the dower interest of the spouse,
whether inchoate or otherwise, may be subjected to the sale without the consent of
the spouse. The court shall determine the present value and priority of the dower interest in
accordance with section 2131.01 of the Revised Code and shall award the spouse a sum of money equal to the present value of the dower
interest, to be paid out of the proceeds of the sale according to the priority of
the interest. To the extent that the owner and the owner's spouse are both liable for the indebtedness,
the dower interest of the spouse is subordinate to the claims of their common creditors.
