Syllabus

Final and Appealable Order; Plea Agreement; Motion to Dismiss Indictment. The trial court's order denying defendant-appellant's motion to enforce his plea agreement and dismiss the criminal case was a final, appealable order. For two independent reasons, the trial court did not err in denying the motion. First, circumstances for applying the principles from Supreme Court of Ohio caselaw on which defendant-appellant's appeal relies are absent from the peculiar facts and scenario presented. Second, defendant-appellant breached the plea agreement, so he is barred from attempting to enforce it against the State to dismiss the current indictment.
