State v. Smith

• 2025 Ohio 4973

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in failing to dismiss a charge against appellant based on a speedy-trial violation. While appellant was incarcerated in federal prison, he failed to follow the statutory procedure to demand a trial within 180 days on his pending Ohio charge. Appellant's later-appointed counsel did not provide ineffective assistance by failing to raise the foregoing issue. Judgment affirmed.
