Are protest forms allowed in court for Ohio negotiable instruments?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only in federal courts

  4. Only outside Ohio

The correct answer is: Yes

In Ohio, protest forms are allowed as a means of evidence in court for negotiable instruments. This is confirmed by the Ohio Revised Code section 1303.26 which states that a "protest may be made by a notarial officer or any credible person." Additionally, there are no specific restrictions on the use of protest forms in federal courts. Option B is incorrect because protest forms are allowed in Ohio courts. Option C is incorrect because it is not limited to just federal courts. Option D is incorrect because it implies that protest forms are not allowed within Ohio, which is not the case.
