Syllabus

Appellant's claim that his guilty pleas were invalid because he did not realize the trial court could impose a sentence that exceeded the maximum recommended prison term for his two drug possession offenses lacks merit. The trial court advised appellant at the plea hearing that, in addition to the maximum prison term, appellant could receive 578 days in prison as a sanction for committing his offenses while on post-release control. In addition, appellant's claim that the 578-day sanction imposed at sentencing is contrary to law lacks merit, as it complies with R.C. 2929.141(A)(1). Judgment affirmed.
