• 2022 Ohio 3389

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in finding that R.C. 2950.05(F)(1) imposes strict liability when the language of R.C. 2950, the other indicia of strict liability offenses, and the established case law throughout Ohio, support a finding that there is plain legislative intent to do so. Appellant's conviction was supported by sufficient evidence and was not against the manifest weight of the evidence where the evidence demonstrated that appellant was evicted from his home, that he relocated to a new address, and that he did not notify the sheriff of his change of address in either instance within the applicable time frame. The affirmative defense of impossibility was not met, and trial counsel did not render ineffective assistance.
