Syllabus

R.C. 2953.08(D)(1) - APPELLATE REVIEW – JOINTLY RECOMMENDED SENTENCE – STIPULATION – ALLIED OFFENSES – COUNSEL: Pursuant to R.C. 2953.08(D)(1), defendant's sentences were not subject to appellate review where defendant waived the allied-offenses issue by stipulation, and the trial court imposed the sentences as jointly recommended by defendant and the prosecution. Defense counsel was not ineffective for drafting, and counseling his client to enter into, a plea agreement where the sentences, for offenses which defendant claimed were allied, would be served consecutively.
