Syllabus

Appellant's six-month prison sentence is not contrary to law where the trial court did not fail to comply with R.C. 2929.12 and R.C. 2929.19(A). In addition, statements made by appellant's trial counsel at the sentencing hearing indicate that the State did not breach the parties' plea agreement. Even if there had been a breach, since appellant failed to raise an objection at the sentencing hearing, the matter may only be reviewed for plain error, which we do not find. Moreover, since the record indicates that the State did not breach the plea agreement, appellant cannot establish that his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to the alleged breach. Judgment affirmed. (Froelich, J., concurring.)
