State v. Munion, 2012 Ohio 4963

Munion was charged with speeding (Ordinance 333.03) and street racing (Ordinance 333.07) in Portsmouth.
Curtis Hall was charged with the same offenses; Munion and Hall had a joint bench trial.
The trial court orally found both guilty of the charged offenses and sentenced them.
The Entry of Sentence addressed the street racing conviction but omitted any reference to the speeding conviction.
There was no journal entry or other document stating a conviction or sentence for speeding, leaving the speeding charge unresolved.
The appellate court dismissed the appeal, ruling there was no final, appealable order because one charged offense remained unresolved.

Issue	Plaintiff's Argument	Defendant's Argument	Held
Street racing conviction weight of evidence	Munion argues the street racing conviction is against the manifest weight of the evidence.	City contends the evidence supports the conviction.	Appeal dismissed for lack of a final, appealable order; issue not reached.
