Opinion
{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment dismissing the petition of appellant, Mustafa Muhammad, for a writ of mandamus to compel appellee, the state of Ohio, to hear his “writ of replevin motion for order of possession,” which was filed in the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas.
{¶ 2} Muhammad’s noncompliance with R.C. 2969.25(C) justified the court’s dismissal of his mandamus petition. State ex rel. Castro v. Corrigan, 129 Ohio St.3d 342, 2011-Ohio-4059, 952 N.E.2d 497, ¶ 2.
{¶ 3} Muhammad claims on appeal that an internal prison policy prevented him from personally enclosing the required prison cashier’s statement with his petition when it was sent to the clerk of the court of appeals for filing, and thus any error must have been made by prison officials. Muhammad waived this argument on appeal, however, by failing to specifically raise this claim in his objections to the magistrate’s decision in the court of appeals. State ex rel. Maroon v. Ohio State Hwy. Patrol Retirement Sys., 132 Ohio St.3d 287, 2012-Ohio-2679, 971 N.E.2d 918, ¶ 2, citing Civ.R. 53(D)(3)(b)(iv) and Loc.R. 12(M)(1) of the Tenth District Court of Appeals; see also Civ.R. 53(D)(3)(b)(ii) (“An objection to a magistrate’s decision shall be specific and state with particularity all grounds for objection”). Nor did Muhammad present any evidence in the court of appeals supporting this contention. See State ex rel. Wells v. Jefferson Cty. Court of Common Pleas, 122 Ohio St.3d 39, 2009-Ohio-2358, 907 N.E.2d 1166 (appellant seeking writs of mandamus and procedendo cannot add new matter to the record on appeal to support his claims).
{¶ 4} Therefore, the court of appeals properly dismissed Muhammad’s petition, and we affirm the court’s dismissal.
Judgment affirmed.
