State v. Powers

Citations

  • 2021 Ohio 4357

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in not sua sponte raising the issue of appellant's competency to stand trial where the issue was never raised by the parties and appellant's interactions with the court demonstrated appellant understood the nature and objective of the proceedings against him and he was capable of assisting in his own defense. Appellant's challenge to his misdemeanor sentence was disregarded for lack of briefing as appellant neglected to mention where in the record the alleged sentencing error occurred and he failed to cite any legal authority in support of his challenge to his sentence. App.R. 16(A)(7) and 12(A)(2).

Judges: Hendrickson
