State v. Mitts

In this appeal, Mitts advances eleven propositions of law. Finding none meritorious, we affirm his convictions. In accordance with the mandate of R.C. 2929.05(A), we have considered each of Mitts’s propositions of law and have reviewed the sentence for appropriateness and proportionality.

We have previously held that R.C. 2929.05 does not require this court to address and discuss, in opinion form, each proposition of law raised in a capital case. See, e.g., State v. Keith (1997), 79 Ohio St.3d 514, 517, 684 N.E.2d 47, 54; State v. Allen (1995), 73 Ohio St.3d 626, 628, 653 N.E.2d 675, 680.…
