In what situation does a funeral goods agreement not qualify as a preneed funeral contract?

A funeral goods agreement does not qualify as a preneed funeral contract if it includes cemetery services. In Ohio law, a preneed funeral contract specifically pertains to agreements that focus solely on funeral services, including the provision of goods and services related to the funeral itself, such as caskets, transportation, and embalming. When cemetery services are included, the agreement extends beyond just funeral services. This distinction is crucial because it means that the agreement essentially becomes a broader contract that encompasses both funeral and burial arrangements, which does not fit the definition of a preneed funeral contract that is intended to cover only funeral services. Therefore, the presence of cemetery services is the key factor that disqualifies the agreement from being recognized as a preneed contract under Ohio law.
