Syllabus

Sufficiency of the evidence weight of the evidence self-defense jury instructions R.C. 2901.05 inconsistent verdict ineffective assistance of counsel R.C. 2953.08. The defendant's conviction for felonious assault based on a mortal shooting is not against the weight of the evidence because the evidence demonstrating that the defendant was not acting in self-defense was not inherently unreliable and the conviction was not the product of ineffective assistance of counsel or inconsistent with the jury's acquittal of other charges. Finally, there is no statutory basis to review the maximum sentence imposed.
