Right to cure / redeem in Ohio

Yes, for health-and-safety breaches. When an Ohio tenant breaks a duty under R.C. 5321.05 that materially affects health and safety, the landlord can give written notice ending the rental agreement on a date at least 30 days after the tenant receives it. The agreement ends on that date only if the tenant has not remedied the condition. Statute text: "If the tenant fails to remedy the condition specified in the notice, the rental agreement shall terminate as provided in the notice." (Ohio Rev. Code § 5321.11).
