Q: Hello: According to Ohio law, what is considered a school fee? Is there a location to find the definition?
A: A local court or judge might have given an opinion on what it includes in that term. If not, then the parents will have to try to work it out. Check if the parenting agreement requires mediation before going to court. If mediation doesn't resolve it, then file with the court for the judge to determine what is included.
A: The definition of school fee will depend on the history of the parties and their intentions about what expenses should be included as school fees. When parties do not agree re school fees they can petition the court for clarification of their current court order or file other motions if payment of the school fees becomes a major issue of contention and/or costs are adding up.
