State v. Reading, Unpublished Decision (9-15-2004)
State v. Reading, Unpublished Decision (9-15-2004)
Opinion of the Court
Defendant-appellant Thomas Reading's first assignment of error alleges that his convictions for aggravated robbery and obstructing official business were against the manifest weight of the evidence.
The weight to be given the evidence and the credibility of the witnesses are primarily for the trier of fact. See State v.DeHass (1967),
Reading's second assignment of error, which alleges that the trial court erred in failing to make the required felony sentencing findings, is overruled because the court imposed the minimum term of incarceration for the first-degree felony of aggravated robbery, and, therefore, no findings were required pursuant to R.C.
Therefore, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
Further, a certified copy of this Judgment Entry shall constitute the mandate, which shall be sent to the trial court under App.R. 27. Costs shall be taxed under App.R. 24.
