• 2021 Ohio 3651

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in dismissing appellant's PCR petition on the basis of untimeliness where appellant filed his petition 366 days after the transcripts were filed with the appellate court. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in determining appellant's PCR petition failed to establish substantive grounds for relief, as appellant failed to prove that his lead counsel's representation fell below an objectively reasonable standard in this case and the appellant could not establish any prejudice as a result of his representation.
