State v. Yanez

Citations

  • 2017 Ohio 7209

Syllabus

The trial court properly entered the jury's guilty verdict for felonious assault where appellant did not prove by a preponderance of the evidence that he stabbed the victim in self-defense because the victim testified that appellant stabbed him while trying to steal his wallet. Nor did the prosecutor engage in misconduct where the questions and statements from the state were offered to prove the lack of appellant's credibility.
