State of Ohio v. Michael Jones, Case No. 2023-0572
First District Court of Appeals (Hamilton County)

ISSUES:

- Is an appeals court limited to reviewing only the evidence the trial court admitted into the record?
- Is an appeals court authorized to send a case back to the trial court, ordering the defendant to file a motion to suppress evidence that raises specific issues and keeping the defendant's convictions in place?
