Mary Marcum v. State of Ohio, Case Nos. 2014-1825 and 2014-2122

Fourth District Court of Appeals (Gallia County)

ISSUES:

-Does the test described by the Ohio Supreme Court in State v. Kalish (2008) apply to the review of felony sentences after amendments were made to R.C. 2953.08(G) in 2011?

-Given the language "[i]n addition to any other right to appeal" in R.C. 2953.08, does R.C. 2505.03 also allow appellate courts to review discretionary sentences to consider whether a trial court abused its discretion?
