Syllabus

The trial court did not err in denying appellant's successive petition for postconviction relief under R.C. 2953.23, as the matters raised in the petition had been previously litigated and were barred by res judicata. Although the trial court did not rule on appellant's motion for leave to file a motion for a new trial, any error was harmless, as the claims raised in the motion were also barred by res judicata. Judgment affirmed.
