STATE v. COLE

No. 16414.

93 Ohio App.3d 712 (1994)

The STATE of Ohio, Appellee, v. COLE, Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Ohio, Summit County.

Decided March 23, 1994.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Lynn Slaby, Summit County Prosecuting Attorney, and William D. Wellemeyer, Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for appellee.

Nicholas Swyrydenko, for appellant.
