State v. Powell

• 2019 Ohio 4286

Syllabus

The trial court's denial of indigent defendant's request for expert funding in a postconviction review of a capital case was a final, appealable order, and the trial court did not abuse its discretion by denying the motion. The court did not err in denying defendant's motion for a new mitigation trial because Hurst v. Florida, ___ U.S. ___, 136 S.Ct. 616, 193 L.Ed.2d 504 (2016), does not render Ohio's death penalty scheme unconstitutional.
