State v. Purifoy

Citations

  • 2019 Ohio 2942

Syllabus

Defendant pled guilty to attempted rape and attempted felonious assault, and he was sentenced to prison with an order to pay court costs. The trial court's imposition of a prison sentence, rather than community control, was not clearly and convincingly unsupported by the record. Trial counsel did not render ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to file an affidavit of indigency and request a waiver of court costs at sentencing. Judgment affirmed.

Judges: Froelich
