State v. Lawson

• 2018 Ohio 1222

Syllabus

The State concedes, and this court agrees, that Appellant did not knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily enter his guilty plea due to the trial court improperly advising Appellant about post-release control at the plea hearing and in the written plea form. As a result, Appellant's additional claim alleging that his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance in failing to object to the erroneous post-release control advisement is no longer ripe for review and moot. Judgment reversed, plea vacated, and matter remanded.
