State ex rel. Carter v. Ohio Adult Parole Authority

No. 99-2108 | Ohio | Aug 30, 2000

Appellant had adequate legal remedies to raise his claims. Moreover, habeas corpus, not mandamus, is the proper action to seek release from prison. See State ex rel. Milner v. Ohio Adult Parole Auth. (2000), 87 Ohio St.3d 567, 568, 722 N.E.2d 72. Accordingly, the judgment of the court of appeals is affirmed.
