State v. Dudley, 2014 Ohio 430

Appellant Dudley appeals May 16, 2013 sentencing entry from Ashland County Court of Common Pleas.
Appellant pled no contest to multiple offenses in two cases, including four fifth-degree felonies and several thefts/burglaries.
Trial court imposed consecutive sentences for felonies with an aggregate term; misdemeanors run concurrently.
Restitution was a central issue; court ordered specific amounts but withheld final determination pending documentation from victims.
Judgment entry largely unresolved restitution matters, rendering it interlocutory and non-final for purposes of appeal; appeal dismissed for lack of final order.
Court noted Dudley cursed at the judge and was removed, but sentencing continued; restitution documentation remained pending.

Whether the May 16, 2013 judgment is a final appealable order given restitution remains undetermined	State argues restitution is part of the sentence and final	Dudley contends judgment is appealable despite pending restitution	No final appealable order; appeal dismissed
