• 2019 Ohio 568

Syllabus

Defendant-appellant pleaded guilty to aggravated vehicular homicide, aggravated vehicular assault, and improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle. Thus, Appellant's claim of ineffective assistance of counsel is limited to an examination of whether counsel's purported errors prevented him from entering the plea in a knowing, intelligent, and voluntary fashion. Appellant has failed to establish that trial counsel's representation was ineffective or that counsel's asserted errors made the plea less than knowing, intelligent, and voluntary. Further, Appellant's sentence is not contrary to law and we cannot find by clear and convincing evidence that the sentence is not supported by the record. Judgment affirmed.
