Syllabus

Journal entry, clerical mistake, nunc pro tunc, juvenile, having a weapon while under disability, firearm specification, plain error, double jeopardy, R.C. 2152.17(A), R.C. 2929.14(B), equal protection, rational basis, R.C. 2152.17(F), ineffective assistance of counsel. The trial court failed to properly journalize the proceedings at the juvenile's dispositional hearing. Even though R.C. 2929.14(B) does not permit an adult offender to receive a firearm specification for a charge of having a weapon while under disability, R.C. 2152.17(A) does not violate a juvenile offender's double-jeopardy or equal-protection rights by allowing a firearm specification to enhance a having-a-weapon-under-disability charge in the juvenile system.
