Syllabus

Allied offenses void sentence authorized by law res judicata. Postconviction motion to merge allied offenses was barred by res judicata where court never considered whether to merge allied offenses since the parties agreed the defendant's convictions were not allied offenses. Argument that consecutive sentences were contrary to law was not properly before the court where defendant failed to raise the argument in the trial court.
