• 2022 Ohio 4760

Syllabus

The trial court erred by instructing the jury that the defendant-appellant had the burden of proving self-defense where his offenses occurred prior to the implementation of the amendments to Ohio's new self-defense law under R.C. 2901.05 and his trial was held after the amendments became effective. The judgment of the trial court is reversed and remanded.
