__________________ Per Curiam.

{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals denying the motion of appellant, Dana Goins, for leave to file a second petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Res judicata bars Goins from filing a successive habeas corpus petition to raise claims that he raised or could have raised in his previous petition. See State ex rel. Johnson v. Pineda , 126 Ohio St.3d 480, 2010-Ohio-4387, 935 N.E.2d 38, ¶ 1. [1]

Judgment affirmed. O’C ONNOR , C.J., and P FEIFER , L UNDBERG S TRATTON , O’D ONNELL , L ANZINGER , C UPP , and M C G EE B ROWN , JJ., concur.
