Knowles v. Voorhies
Ohio Supreme Court · Decided March 18, 2009 · Moyer, Pfeifer, Stratton, O'Connor, O'Donnell, Lanzinger, Cupp
2009 Ohio 1109; 121 Ohio St. 3d 271; 903 N.E.2d 637

Knowles v. Voorhies

Opinion

Per Curiam.

{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals dismissing the petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Appellant, Howard L. Knowles, did not attach to his petition one of the bindover entries he challenges. Thus, his petition is fatally defective and subject to dismissal because he did not attach copies of all of his pertinent commitment papers. Goudlock v. Voorhies, 119 Ohio St.3d 398, 2008-Ohio-4787, 894 N.E.2d 692, ¶ 14.

Judgment affirmed.

Moyer,’ C.J., and Pfeifer, Lundberg Stratton, O’Connor, O’Donnell, Lanzinger, and Cupp, JJ., concur.
