State v. DePew
Ohio Supreme Court · Decided November 9, 1994 · Douglas, Moyer, Pfeifer, Resnick, Sweeney, Wright
70 Ohio St. 3d 1219; 640 N.E.2d 840

State v. DePew

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

We deny the motions. Depew’s 1988 appeal to this court was not a first appeal as of right; therefore, he had no constitutional right to counsel, hence no constitutional right to effective assistance. See State v. Buell (1994), 70 Ohio St.3d 1211, 639 N.E.2d 110.

Motions denied.
