• 2017 Ohio 7839

Syllabus

Evidence at trial was sufficient to convict appellant of having a weapon while under disability pursuant to R.C. 2923.13 where the victim testified he knew appellant, appellant pulled a gun out and shot him, and identified appellant as the shooter to police while at the hospital. Because appellant did not meet his burden of showing that his defense counsel's recommendation to try his WUD charge to the court constituted a deficient performance pursuant to Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984), appellant's separate claim of ineffective assistance of counsel necessarily failed. Judgment affirmed.
