State v. Hill
| 19AP-711 | Appellant's conviction was supported by sufficient evidence and was not against the manifest weight of the evidence. The evidence was sufficient to permit a reasonable trier of fact to conclude that appellant caused the injuries sustained by the victim in this case; therefore, the trial court did not err in overruling appellant's motion for acquittal made pursuant to Crim.R. 29. The jury was free to believe the testimony of the victim in this case, and appellant's conviction is not against the manifest weight of the evidence merely because the jury found his testimony more credible than that of appellant. Furthermore, the trial court did not err by abusing its discretion in allowing the state to present evidence of a prior conviction of felonious assault for the purposes of impeaching appellant's credibility, and even if there was error such error was harmless. Judgment affirmed. | Beatty Blunt | Franklin |

Columbus v. C.G.
| 19AP-121 | Trial court did not abuse its discretion in admitting domestic violence/assault victim's out-of-court statements to sister under Evid.R. 803(2), the excited utterance exception to the hearsay rule. Trial court's admission of the statements did not violate his right to confrontation under either the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution or Ohio Constitution, Article I, Section 10. Trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant's request for a continuance to procure victim's appearance at trial where victim ignored subpoena issued by city, defendant did not specify the proposed length of the continuance, defendant did not proffer summary of victim's anticipated testimony. Defendant's convictions for domestic violence and assault were not against the manifest weight of the evidence. | Klatt | Franklin |
