State v. Beechler

• 2017 Ohio 1385

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in denying Appellant's motion to vacate an alleged void conviction. Appellant had previously filed several post-conviction motions, and did not satisfy the requirements under R.C. 2953.23 for filing a successive post-conviction petition. The trial court, therefore, lacked jurisdiction over Appellant's claims. In addition, Appellant's claims were barred by res judicata. The trial court also was not required to make findings of fact and conclusions of law, and was not required to appoint counsel for Appellant. Affirmed.
