Syllabus

The trial court properly imposed a five-year mandatory term of post-release control for Appellant's first-degree felony kidnapping convictions. Although the trial court failed to impose the applicable three-year mandatory term of post-release control for Appellant's felonious assault conviction, that term of post-release control is subsumed by the five-year term imposed for Appellant's kidnapping convictions, as \the period of post-release control for all of the sentences shall be the period of post-release control that expires last[.]\ R.C. 2967.28(F)(4)(c). In addition, Appellant's claim that the trial court failed to merge allied offenses of similar import at sentencing was waived for appeal and barred by the doctrine of res judicata. Affirmed.
