Ohio law now uses the broad definition of the term “economic loss” that was used in the 1996 changes made to felony sentencing law. According to this definition, a court may order restitution based upon the victim’s “economic loss,” which includes loss of income, medical costs, funeral expenses, insurance deductible amounts, etc.
