Ohio Revised Code Title XLVII. Occupations Professions § 4745.021

Notwithstanding any provision of the Revised Code pertaining to the timing of a license renewal to the contrary, if a failure in any electronic license renewal system occurs, a licensing agency may extend the date by which licenses must be renewed.  The licensing agency may extend a renewal period for a reasonable time period after the resolution of the system failure.  However, a licensing agency must obtain approval from the director of administrative services for an extension in excess of fourteen days beyond the resolution of the system failure.
