Diehl & Hubbell wins recent Ohio Supreme Court case.

Diehl & Hubbell successfully argued that a trial court must inform a defendant of certain potential consequences at the time of sentencing.  The Ohio Supreme Court’s decision reversed the Twelfth District Court of Appeals.  The appellate court originally denied the requested relief under the ripeness doctrine.

The Ohio Supreme Court sided with the Defendant, and indicated that a reviewing court must strictly construe the statutory language.

The case is State v. Smith, 2012-Ohio-781.
