State v. Burks

Citations

  • 2024 Ohio 17

Syllabus

The sufficiency of the evidence and the manifest weight of the evidence support Burks' convictions of felonious assault, discharge of a firearm on or near prohibited premises, tampering with evidence, and having a weapon while under disability, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in providing the Howard charge to the jury, and Burks did not receive the ineffective assistance of counsel. The trial court erred, however, in failing to impose the indefinite sentencing scheme required by the Reagan Tokes Law, and we remand the matter to the trial court for resentencing in accordance with the Reagan Tokes Law.

Judges: Luper Schuster
