State v. Woody
| CA2019-01-001 | Appellant has failed to demonstrate that he received ineffective assistance of counsel. Trial counsel's decision not to object to statements made by the certain witnesses was part of reasonable trial strategy, therefore appellant cannot establish that his counsel's performance was deficient. Furthermore, there is no reasonable probability the outcome of the trial would have been different but for the claimed errors. | Ringland | Clinton |

State v. Adkins
| CA2019-03-004 | Appellant was convicted of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity and trafficking in cocaine. Appellant's trial counsel did not provide ineffective assistance when he did not move to suppress evidence from a traffic stop in violation of R.C. 2935.03. The traffic stop did not violate appellant's constitutional rights and a mere statutory violation does not warrant evidence exclusion; therefore, the suppression motion would not have been successful. Further, it was not ineffective assistance for appellant's trial counsel to forego a pretrial motion to dismiss based on laboratory reports not compliant with state law because it was part of counsel's trial strategy to obtain an acquittal. Finally, Appellant's convictions were supported by sufficient evidence and were not against the manifest weight of the evidence. | Powell | Fayette |

Hussain v. Hussain
| CA2019-01-024 | Husband was properly served with wife's objections at his address in India by regular mail and email pursuant to Civ.R. 5. Trial court erred in prorating the severance pay husband received in 2015 through the first half of 2016 and calculating husband's child support obligation based upon that extrapolation. Trial court did not err in awarding wife $13,636.59 in attorney fees incurred in lengthy postdecree litigation regarding the division of husband's retirement accounts by QDROs. | Powell | Butler |

| CA2018-12-229 | Appellant did not receive ineffective assistance of counsel where he failed to show any deficient performance and failed to demonstrate that there is a reasonable probability that, but for his counsel's errors, he would not have pled guilty and would have insisted on going to trial. | Ringland | Butler |
