State v. Cassell

• 2019 Ohio 1668

Syllabus

Defendant's guilty plea to complicity to commit murder and a related firearm specification was not rendered less than knowing, intelligent, and voluntary by the trial court's failure to inform defendant about post-release control, as complicity to murder is an unclassified felony to which the post-release control statute does not apply. Additionally, defendant's newly-appointed counsel did not request a continuance regarding defendant's motion to withdraw his guilty plea, and the trial court did not commit plain error by proceeding to sentencing when defendant withdrew that motion to withdraw his plea. Judgment affirmed.
