North v. Beightler
Decision Date | 27 December 2006 |
Docket Number | No. 2006-1165.,2006-1165. |
Parties | NORTH, Appellant, v. BEIGHTLER, Warden, Appellee. |
Court | Ohio Supreme Court |
David H. Bodiker, Ohio Public Defender, and Stephen P. Hardwick, Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.
Jim Petro, Ohio Attorney General, and Jerri L. Fosnaught, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
{¶ 1} This is an appeal from a judgment dismissing a habeas corpus petition.
{¶ 2} On April 2, 1997, the Lorain County Court of Common Pleas convicted appellant, John R. North, of aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery and sentenced him to an aggregate prison term of five years. On October 23, 2001, North was released from prison and placed on postrelease control.
{¶ 3} On July 19, 2005, the Adult Parole Authority held a hearing and found North guilty of violating the terms of his postrelease control by, among other things, escaping the Parole Authority's detention. The Parole Authority imposed a 180-day prison term as a sanction for the postrelease-control violation. On August 29, 2005, the common pleas court convicted North of escape and sentenced him to one year in prison.
{¶ 4} On March 20, 2006, North filed a petition in the Court of Appeals for Marion County for a writ of habeas corpus to compel his release from prison. North claimed that because postrelease control was never made a part of his initial sentence in April 1997, his incarceration was unlawful based on our decision in Hernandez v. Kelly, 108 Ohio St.3d 395, 2006-Ohio-126, 844 N.E.2d 301.
{¶ 5} On May 19, 2006, the court of appeals dismissed North's petition.
{¶ 6} In his appeal as of right, North asserts that the postrelease-control language in a purported 2004 sentence for attempted escape did not legally impose postrelease control because it stated that "postrelease control is (mandatory/optional) in this case up to a maximum of (3/5) years." North did not, however, raise this issue in his petition or in the proceedings in the court of appeals, so he has waived this issue on appeal. Phillips v. Irwin, 96 Ohio St.3d 350, 2002-Ohio-4758, 774 N.E.2d 1218, ¶ 6 ( ); see, also, Taylor v. Mitchell (2000), 88 Ohio St.3d 453, 454, 727 N.E.2d 905, fn. 1.
{¶ 7} Moreover, North cannot now add his September 28, 2004 sentence for attempted escape to the record to support his claim on appeal. Dzina v. Celebrezze, 108 Ohio St.3d 385, 2006-Ohio-1195, 843 N.E.2d 1202, ¶ 16 ().
{¶ 8} Further, by now claiming that the 2004 sentence is pertinent to his habeas corpus claim, North effectively concedes that by not attaching a copy of it to his petition, dismissal of his petition was warranted for failing to comply with the requirement in R.C. 2725.04(D) to include the commitment papers. Harris v. Anderson, 109 Ohio St.3d 101, 2006-Ohio-1934, 846 N.E.2d 43, ¶ 10.
{¶ 9} North further asserts that the court of appeals erred in...
