Liberty National CEO testifies during Ohio House committee meeting

Speaking out against House Bill 67
Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, May 8, 2017

Ron Zimmerly, Liberty National Bank president and CEO, recently testified in the Ohio House Financial Institutions, Housing, and Urban Development Committee in opposition to House Bill 67. 

This bill would only permit the use of cognovit notes for monetary default on commercial lending contracts, thus removing a safety net that allows lenders to mitigate some of the risk taken on these high-dollar loans.

Zimmerly’s testimony emphasized that the use of a cognovit note, or confession of judgment, is used only as a last resort option and must be valid, justifiable, and within legal reason for a judge to approve the request to call the loan.

That's puzzling

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Friday, May 5, 2017

That's puzzling. Elementary students grades 1-6 in Ada had their artwork displayed on the walls of the school on Thursday evening. The art formed a giant puzzle when put together.

Here, first grade twins Wyatt (left) and Maverick Shaw show their art contributions to parents Robert and Brittany Shaw. Why dressed in baseball uniforms? Shortly after the art show, the Shaw youngsters participated in the first grade music program, which had a baseball theme.
