R.C. 2109.42. See, also, Stevens, 45 Ohio St.3d 276, 544 N.E.2d 612; Zimmerman, 141 Ohio St. 207, 47 N.E.2d 782; Flavin, 59 Ohio App. 443, 18 N.E.2d 514; In re Estate of Howison (1934), 49 Ohio App. 421, 3 O.O. 301, 197 N.E. 333; In re Guardianship of Wammes (Sept. 15, 1989), Lucas App. No. L-89-012, unreported, 1989 WL 106287. The trial court would have been permitted to set the amount of interest in its discretion.
Looking at this case from the standpoint of merely requiring ordinary care on the part of the guardian, it is clear to us that he should be held liable for the losses suffered by his ward. Steward v. Barry, Admr., 102 Ohio St. 129, 131 N.E. 492; In re Estate of Howison, 49 Ohio App. 421, 197 N.E. 333. A very interesting case, and one that seems to us to be decisive of the instant case, is In re Hoffman Estates, 55 S.D. 252, 225 N.W. 717, decided by the Supreme Court of South Dakota, in 1929.
