Local lawmaker to up mileage reimbursements for court witnesses

COLUMBUS — State Sen. Gary Cates, R-Butler County, introduced legislation Friday, Sept. 12, that would increase the mileage reimbursement for witnesses subpoenaed to testify in county court to up to 50.5 cents per mile.

The bill would allow county commissions to set the rates in each county. The current rate of 10 cents per mile was set in 1976. The proposed limit of 50.5 cents per mile mirrors that given to state employees.

“While it is clear that Ohio’s mileage reimbursement law needs to be reformed, we did not want to place an unmanageable financial burden on Ohio’s county governments,” Cates said.

He said Butler County Prosecutor Robin Piper was instrumental in urging the legislation.
