Syllabus

JUVENILE COURT – MANDATORY BINDOVER – JURISDICTION – R.C. 2151.23(H) – POSTCONVICTION PETITION: The trial court did not err in finding it had jurisdiction to convict defendant of murder and attempted murder as an adult because the juvenile court found probable cause to believe he committed these two offenses following bindover proceedings. Moreover, because defendant's postconviction petition was untimely and he did not argue either of the exceptions in R.C. 2953.23(A) permitting untimely postconviction petitions applied, the trial court correctly determined it lacked authority to consider the untimely postconviction petition. Judgment affirmed.
