State ex rel. Abercrombie v. Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas
Annotate this CaseIn 1994, Appellant was convicted of several offenses associated with a robbery spree through Ohio and Michigan. In 2013, Appellant filed a petition for habeas corpus, arguing that because he was transferred to Michigan on a detainer to serve his sentence there, Ohio lost jurisdiction over him. The court of appeals dismissed the petition for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, concluding that because Appellant had yet to serve his maximum Ohio term, which will expire in 2019, Appellant had failed to show that he was entitled to immediate release. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant had not yet served his maximum twenty-five-year sentence sentence imposed in 1994, and therefore, habeas relief was not appropriate.
