2101.37 Judge of court of common pleas to act as probate judge - compensation.
When the probate judge of any county is absent, or is unable to attend court, or the volume of work in his office necessitates it, he may call upon a judge of the court of common pleas having jurisdiction in said county to act in his place, or in conjunction with him, or he may call upon the chief justice of the supreme court, who shall designate a judge of the court of common pleas or a probate judge to act in the place of such absent or incapacitated probate judge, or in conjunction with him. If the probate judge of any county dies or resigns during his term of office, a judge of the court of common pleas of said county shall act in the place of said probate judge until his successor is appointed and qualified. When a judge of the court of common pleas or a probate judge so designated resides outside the county in which he is called upon to act, he shall receive such compensation as is provided for judges of the court of common pleas designated by the chief justice to hold court outside their respective counties. The record of such cases shall be made and preserved in the proper records of the probate court by the deputy clerk thereof.
