§ 2319.27.
Except as section 147.08 of the Revised Code governs the fees chargeable by a notary public for services rendered in connection
with depositions, the fees and expenses chargeable for the taking and certifying of
a deposition by a person who is authorized to do so in this state, including, but
not limited to, a reporter, stenographer, or person described in Civil Rule 28 , may be established by that person subject to the qualification specified in this
section, and may be different than the fees and expenses charged for the taking and
certifying of depositions by similar persons in other areas of this state. Unless, prior to the taking and certifying of a deposition, the parties who request
it agree that the fees or expenses to be charged may exceed the usual and customary
fees or expenses charged in the particular community for similar services, such a
person shall not charge fees or expenses in connection with the taking and certifying
of the deposition that exceed those usual and customary fees and expenses. The person taking and certifying a deposition may retain the deposition until the
fees and expenses that the person charged are paid. The person also shall tax the costs, if any, of a sheriff or other officer who serves
any process in connection with the taking of a deposition and the fees of the witnesses,
and, if directed by a person entitled to those costs or fees, may retain the deposition
until those costs or fees are paid.
