Review cadenceOngoing; re-check if Ohio amends R.C. 4775.09 or the underlying catalytic-converter offenses.
Your Ohio business is registered under Chapter 4775 as a motor vehicle collision repair operator or motor vehicle window tint installation facility, especially if the business acquires or handles used detached catalytic converters.
Review catalytic-converter sourcing and intake controls, train staff not to make prohibited used-converter purchases, retain appropriate transaction documentation, and escalate any suspected stolen-property issue because specified convictions can now affect the shop's repair registration.
