(a) Evidence of intent to commit theft of rented property.
(1) For the purpose of this division (a), the following definitions shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning.
RENTER. A person who owns rented property.
RENTEE. A person who pays consideration to a renter for the use of rented property.
(2) Each of the following shall be considered evidence of intent to commit theft of rented property or rental services:
A. At the time of entering into the rental contract, the rentee presented the renter with identification that was materially false, fictitious, or not current with respect to name, address, place of employment, or other relevant information.
B. After receiving a notice demanding the return of the rented property as provided in division (a)(3) of this section, the rentee neither returned the rented property nor made arrangements acceptable with the renter to return the rented property.
(3) To establish that a rentee has an intent to commit theft of rented property or rental services under division (a)(2)B. above, a renter may issue a notice to a rentee demanding the return of the rented property. The renter shall mail the notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the rentee at the address the rentee gave when the rental contract was executed, or to the rentee at the last address the rentee or the rentee's agent furnished in writing to the renter.
(4) A demand for the return of the rented property is not a prerequisite for the prosecution of a rentee for theft of rented property or rental services. The evidence specified in division (a)(2) above does not constitute the only evidence that may be considered as evidence of intent to commit theft of rented property or rental services.
(R.C. § 2913.72)
