Ohio Supreme Court February 3, 2009, No. 2007-0558 (Wilborn v. Bank One Corp.)

Cupp, J.

{¶ 1} In this case we decide whether a provision in a residential-mortgage contract requiring a borrower to pay the lender’s attorney fees as a condition of reinstatement of the borrower’s defaulted mortgage after the lender initiates foreclosure proceedings violates Ohio’s public policy.
