Syllabus

Appellee was indicted under R.C. 2923.16(B) for violating the age-based statutory restriction on the right to carry firearms, applicable to adults 18 to 20 years of age. The trial court did not err in dismissing the charge because R.C. 2923.16(B) is unconstitutional as applied to appellee, an 18-year-old who did not have a concealed handgun license. See State v. Matosky, 2025-Ohio-5658 (2d Dist.). Judgment affirmed.
