If the owner, lessee, or agent of a mine refuses to comply with sections 1563.08 and 1563.09 of the Revised Code, the person who makes the application for the survey may recover judgment as upon default, in a court of competent jurisdiction, against the owner, lessee, or agent, in such sum as he declares under oath that he believes to be justly due him for coal belonging to him taken by the owner, lessee, or agent of the mine without his permission. The statute of limitations shall not run against such claim, but the demand, and refusal of permission to enter such mine, must be proven to the satisfaction of the court or jury.
Effective Date: 10-29-1995.
