State v. Houston
Citations
- 2021 Ohio 3374
Syllabus
Appellant's claim that his indefinite five-to-seven-and-one-half-year prison sentence for aggravated vehicular assault is contrary to law because the trial court failed to adequately consider the seriousness and recidivism factors under R.C. 2929.12 lacks merit. The trial court was not required to make any specific findings under R.C. 2929.12, and the trial court expressly stated that it had considered the seriousness and recidivism factors before imposing its sentence. Because the record establishes that the trial court complied with its sentencing obligations under R.C. 2929.12, appellant's sentence is not contrary to law. Judgment affirmed.
