Syllabus

Appellant's motion seeking a final appealable order under Crim.R. 32(C) was incorrectly construed as an untimely motion for postconviction relief under R.C. 2953.21 but was properly denied. After severance of the counts in the criminal indictment and their resolution in two separate judgments, appellant failed to appeal from the second judgment to raise the argument that all counts had to be resolved in a single final appealable order. The argument that he was entitled to a separate case number for the second set of counts does not demonstrate prejudice, and the trial court referenced all counts in both judgment entries. Judgment affirmed
