APPEAL from the Court of Appeals for Summit County, No. 13869. __________________ {¶ 1} Appellant, Master Chaunce’ Oden, was convicted of aggravated burglary with a prior aggravated felony specification and sentenced accordingly. The Court of Appeals for Summit County affirmed the conviction. State v. Oden (May 3, 1989), Summit App. No. 13869, unreported. {¶ 2} On March 7, 1994, appellant filed an application for reopening pursuant to App. R. 26(B), alleging as good cause for failure to file within ninety days after journalization of the appellate judgment as required by App.R. 26(B)(2)(b), that he was pursuing various appeals and collateral attacks on the judgment instead, and that the riots at the Southern Ohio Correctional Institute also impeded his ability to file a timely application. The court of appeals denied the application, finding that appellant failed to file the application in a timely manner, rejecting the stated reasons for good cause. This appeal followed. __________________ Maureen O’Connor, Summit County Prosecuting Attorney, and William D. Wellemeyer, Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for appellee. Master Chaunce’ Oden, pro se.
