Different Indorsements of a Promissory Note

1/4/2021

 
OHIO CASE LAW UPDATE
U.S. Bank Nat'l Ass'n v. George
, 2020-Ohio-6758, (10th District 2020)
This is the second time the George case has been on appeal since 2015. The issue in George I and George II involved copies of a promissory note submitted to the court that contained different indorsements. It is important to note that Ohio is not an original promissory note state. If it were and the original promissory note was presented as evidence, the issue would not have been raised. In the George II trial the original promissory note was offered as evidence and the lender prevailed. However, in both George I and George II the Court of Appeals implied that ORC 1303.35,  which corresponds UCC 3-306 and 3-308 could be used by the borrower to challenge signatures on an indorsement to a promissory note. The 10th District Court of Appeals decision in George II is inconsistent with the 12th District Court of Appeals decision in Christiana Trust v. Berter, 2020-Ohio-727, (12th District 2020), which means the Ohio Supreme Court may accept the issue in the future to resolve the conflict.
