Syllabus

Appellant fails to establish a claim for ineffective assistance of counsel in either of two cases in which he was convicted. Issues related to the knowing, intelligent, and voluntary nature of his guilty plea to a 2018 theft offense or to the trial court's subject-matter jurisdiction were barred by res judicata, because appellant did not raise them in a direct appeal after his conviction and sentence to community control in that case. Appellant did not establish that counsel was ineffective for not filing a motion to suppress in a 2019 case, because appellant failed to show a basis for suppression. Judgment affirmed.
