  • 2021 Ohio 3737

Syllabus

Manifest weight of the evidence ineffective assistance of counsel consecutive sentences self-defense. Appellant appealed his conviction and sentence for possessing a firearm while under a disability. Appellant could not show any prejudice from the alleged deficiencies of trial counsel. Appellant stated he had possession of a firearm and the video produced by the state showed him bringing the weapon to the scene of the shooting. Accordingly, appellant's conviction was not against the manifest weight of the evidence. Finally, appellant could not show that the trial court erred in determining that having weapons under a disability was his most serious offense and so did not show that the trial court erred in imposing consecutive sentences.
