State ex rel. White v. Aveni
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the court of appeals dismissing Appellant's complaint for writs of mandamus and/or procedendo against Franklin County Common Please Court Judge Carl A. Aveni II, holding that mandamus nor procendendo did not lie where Appellant had an adequate remedy in the ordinary course of the law.
Appellant was found guilty of felony murder and felonious assault and sentenced to an aggregate prison term of twenty-five years to life. Appellant later filed the underlying complaint alleging that he was entitled to a new sentencing entry because the sentencing entry did not identify the felony underlying his felony-murder conviction. The court of appeals dismissed the complaint. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant had an adequate remedy in the ordinary course of the law that he could have pursued in the ordinary course of the law.
