Most-quoted passages

[State v. Gibson (1943), 45 Ohio St.2d 366 , 376-77 ]; State v. Overholt (1991), 77 Ohio App.3d 111 .”

  2. “To invoke the right to self-representation, the right to the assistance of counsel must be knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently waived. A two-part inquiry may be required. First, the court must determine the defendant is competent to waive the right to counsel if the court has reason to doubt the defendant's competence. Second, the court must decide whether the waiver is knowing and voluntary. [Godinez , supra, at 400-402 ].”
