State v. DePew

Nov 9, 1994
No. 87-1334
Versions:70 Ohio St. 3d 1219
640 N.E.2d 840
Per Curiam.

We deny the motions. Depew’s 1988 appeal to this court was not a first appeal as of right; therefore, he had no constitutional right to counsel, hence no constitutional right to effective assistance. See State v. Buell (1994), 70 Ohio St.3d 1211, 639 N.E.2d 110.

Motions denied.
