Ohio Supreme Court

Decided November 9, 1994

Ohio Supreme Court · decided 1994-11-09

Relies on State v. Buell

Decided 1994-11-09

Per Curiam.

¶1We deny the motion. Spirko’s 1991 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.

¶2 Motion denied.

Moyer, C.J., A.W. Sweeney, Douglas, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney and Pfeifer, JJ., concur. Wright, J., dissents.
