DARLLEL B. ORR PETITIONER vs. FRANK BOVA, SHERIFF RESPONDENT

JUDGMENT: PETITION DISMISSED

Writ of Mandamus Motion No. 472895 Order No. 473458

RELEASE DATE: April 4, 2014 FOR PETITIONER Darllel B. Orr, pro se Inmate No. 0206100 Cuyahoga County Jail P.O. Box 5600 Cleveland, Ohio 44101

ATTORNEYS FOR RESPONDENT Timothy J. McGinty Cuyahoga County Prosecutor By: Mary H. McGrath Assistant County Prosecutor The Justice Center 1200 Ontario Street Cleveland, Ohio 44113 FRANK D. CELEBREZZE, JR., P.J.: {¶1} Darllel B. Orr has filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Orr alleges that he is entitled to release from incarceration because “his current confinement is unconstitutional pursuant [to] a patent lack of jurisdiction for failure to strickly [sic] comport with O.R.C. 2945.05 [jury waiver].” We decline to issue a petition on behalf of Orr.

{¶2} The Supreme Court of Ohio has established that a claim of a defective jury waiver is not cognizable through a petition for a writ of habeas corpus and must be addressed through a direct appeal. Bozsik v. Hudson, 110 Ohio St.3d 245, 2006-Ohio-4356, 852 N.E.2d 1200; Kelley v. Wilson, 103 Ohio St.3d 201, 2004-Ohio-4883, 814 N.E.2d 1222; State ex rel. Larkins v. Aurelius, 84 Ohio St.3d 112, 1998-Ohio-661, 702 N.E.2d 79.

{¶3} Accordingly, we grant the motion to dismiss filed by Frank Bova, Cuyahoga County Sheriff. Costs to Orr. The court directs the clerk of court to serve all parties with notice of this judgment and the date of entry upon the journal as required by Civ.R. 58(B).

{¶4} Petition dismissed.
