STATEMENT OF FACTS I
Relator's did not know Prosecutor had deliberately and maliciously filed an Motion Of
Opposition on June 14, 2010, to Relator's Crim.R. 32.1. Exactly (21 hrs.) before the schedule hearing to
held on June 15, 2010. Relator's did not receive the motion until he was transported back to D.C.
Institution and received proof of service on June 18, 2010. (See Ex. B)
Relator's represents to this Honorable Court. That Relator was house at the Hamilton Co.Justice Center, only a(100yards) away. When Prosecutor deviously and deceptively filed his Motion of
Opposition to Relator Crim.R. 32.1, and sent proof of service to Dayton Correctional Institution.
I
-
Both the Court and Prosecutor were fully aware of the schedule hearing on June 15, 2010.
(See Ex. D)
Relator's represents to this Honorable Court. That Relator's Crim.R. 32.1 was filed on April 19,
2010 with qo reply from the prosecutor. (See Ex. E)
The Court nor the Prosecutor never tried to Inform Relator of Motion Opposing his Crim.R.
32.1 at the hearing on June 15, 2010. Thus, under govern Ohio Rules of Practice and Procedure of the
Court: Rule 14 Motions, memorandum and procedure thereon
Any motion and memorandum which is not promptly served on opposing counselafter the
filing thereof shall be subject to being stricken from the files.
Thus the court violated a well Inveterate Code of Judicial Conduct by not apprising Relator of
late filing, and show Impartiality, Bias and prejudice. Canon 1 andRule 2.3.
Relator's represents to this Honorable Court. That Relator 6' Amend. To the U.S. Const. To
have effective assistance of counsel were violated, as well as Ohio Rules of Professional Conduct by
Public Defender, whom Relator's meant only (5min) before the hearing, and did not apprise Relator's of
prosecutor filing on June 14, 2010. Nor, did the court are prosecutor try to apprise Relator's of said
Motion file on June 14, 2010 opposing Relatot's Crim.R. 32.1 on June 15, 2010.
Ohio Rules of Professional Conduct Client-Lawyer Relationsh
Rule 1.4 Communication
p
(a) A lawyer shall do all of the following:
(1) promptly inform the client of any decision or circumstance with respect to which the client's
informed consent is required by these rules;
(2) reasonably consult with the client about the means by which the client's objectives are to be
accomplished;
(3) keep the client reasonably informed about the status of the matter.
(This the Attorney did not do)
According to the Code of Judicial Conduct: Canon 3 A judge shall perform the duties of
judicial office impartially and diligently-Superseded ( This the Court Did Not Do)
Canon 4 A judge shall avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety in all of the
judge's activities-Superseded ( This the Court Did NotDo)Canon 2. a Judge Shall Perform the Duties of Judicial Office Impartially, Competently, and
Diligently.Rule 2.2 Impartiality and fairness: To ensure self-represented litigants the opportunity to have
their matters fairly heard, a judge may make reasonable accommodations to a self-

-
represented litigant consistent with the law. (This the Court Did Not Do)
This was not the first time that Relator had experience such Malfeasance from the court and
prosecutor. Point and Case: 173 Ohio App.3d 709, 880 N.E.2d 143, 2007-Ohio-6217
L The Court Erred in Failing to Permit a Reply under Loc.R. 14(B)
Loc.R. 14(B) of the Court of Common Pleas of Hamilton County provides in relevant portion
that a"memorandum contra to [a] motion shall be served * * * within ten days from the date thememorandum in support of the motion * * * was served," and that "[a] reply memorandum may
be served and filed within seven days of the service of the memorandum contra." The state filed
its memorandum in opposition to (Relator's) Akemon's October 2006 motion on October 25,
2006. Loc.R. 14(B) afforded (Relator's) Akemon seven days to file a reply to the state's
opposing memorandum. But the trial court overruled ( Relator's) Akemon's motion on October
26, thus precluding him from filing a reply. We, therefore, conclude that the trial court erred
when it overruled (Relator's) Akemon's motion before he could reply to the state's opposing
memorandum. (Prosecutor was procedurally Time Bar to reply to Relator Motion under
this rule) (The court failrd to allow Relator to reply)
This Honorable Court must recognize on it own Sup.R.5 that clearly state:
(A) Adoption of Local Rules
(1) Nothing in these rules prevents the adoption of any local rule of practice that promotes the
use of any device or procedure to facilitate the expeditious disposition of cases. Local rules of
practice shall not be inconsistent with rules promulgated by the Supreme Court.(2) A local rule of practice shall be adopted only after the court or division provides appropriate
notice and an opportunity to comment on the proposed rule. If the court or division determines
that there is an immediate need for the rule, the court or division may adopt the rule withoutprior notice and opportunity for comment, but promptly shall afford notice and opportunity for
comment.(3) Upon adoption, the court or division shall file a local rule of practice with its clerk and the
clerk of the Sunreme Court. On or before the first day of February of each year, each court or
division of a court shall do one of the following:(a) File with the clerk of the Supreme Court a complete copy of all local rules of the court or
division in effect on the immediately preceding first day of January;(b) Certify to the clerk of the Supreme Court that there were no changes in the immediately
preceding calendar year to the local rules of the court or division.(B) In addition to local rules of practice adopted pursuant to division (A)(1) of this rule and anyother Rule of Superintendence, each court or division, as applicable, shall adopt the following
by local rule:
The first sentence of division (A)(3) incorporates and modifies the former requirement that a
court or division file local rules upon adoption with the clerk of the Supreme Court. Theremainder of division (A)(3) contains a new requirement that each court and division annually
file a complete set of its local rules with the clerk of the Supreme Court or certify that therewere no changes to the local rules in the prior calendar year. Together with the requirement that
local rules be filed with the Supreme Court upon adoption, this provision will ensure thai the
3
-
Supreme Court has a current, comprehensive set of local rules adopted by each court or
division.
The rule specifically states that courts may adopt local rules restricting the volume of casescounsel may undertake. This provision should be read in light of Rule 16 relating to conflicts in
trial court assignment dates, continuances and engaged counsel.Local rules of practice should not be inconsistent with rules promulgated by the Supreme Court
and should be filed with the Clerk of the SuuremeCourt. See Civ. R. 83 and Crim. R. 57.
Local court rules must be consistentlv enforcedwhere no reasonable allowance is made for
construction of therule. (Annotation from former C P Sup R 9.) State v Turner (Clarlc 1983)
10 Ohio Anp 3d 328
Ordinarily, local rules are designed to facilitate and expedite the disposition of cases, andpossibly the local rule upon which the Defendant's rely should be amended to afford the trial
court wider discretionary authority, but in its present form, the rule makes no reasonable
allowance for construction. For obvious reasons,this court cannot sanction the "selective
enforcement" of local rules. Onthe contrary, the enforcement of a rule established by the court
must becharacterized with consistency if the rule is to retain its integrity, because the only
fair and reasonable alternative to consistent enforcement is complete abandonment.
The trial court once again illustrate it disregard for Ohio Rules and Code of JudicialConduct: Canon 2. A Judge Shall Perform the Duties of Judicial Office Impartially,
Competently, and Diligently.
Rule 2.2 Impartiality and fairnessA judge shall uphold and apply the law, and shall perform
all duties of judicial office fairly and impartially.
Relator's Must represent to this Honorable Court. That Relator never had a opportunity to reply
to said Motion filed on June 14, 2010 according to (Loc.R. 14 (B). The court mustconsistently
enforced this rule with no reasonableallowance at All.
The Court and Prosecutor distinctively demonstrate that they are completely exempt from all
Ohio Rules of Practice and Procedure of the Courts, and have no Intention to comply to the
govern rules of the courts.
Relator's received his time stamp copy of Motion To Vacate Plea filed on June 15, 2010 at
10:09p.m. in which Relator mail on June 9, 2010. (See Ex. A)
The court claim there was no proof of filing when they check. (See Transcripts from June 15,
2010 (See Ex. C)
Relator's must confide to this Honorable Court. That Relator Motion To Vacate, was Indeed
filed mysteriously appearing on the appearance docket as (Filing). (See Ex. E)
^
-
Thus, let the record reflect. That all Relator's Motion/Petition over the last (7yrs.), have always
appear on Appearance Docket in the Correct Caption/Title of each said Motion/Petition was filed. (See
Ex. E)
Relator's contacted the Clerk of Court Office to have Motion To Vacate, properly reflect the
caption/title in which Motion was submitted. Clerk Inform Relator , that the Motion to Vacate was order
by the Court and Prosecutor to be filed that way as (Filing). (See Ex. E)
Relator's filed on June 25, 2010 a Motion To Stay Entry Of Anviud^ment from The
Hearing Held on June 15 2010 And Recall The Defendant For A Hearing That Comport With
Due Process And CrimR. 32.1. (See Ex. F)
Relator's filed on August 6, 2010 Motion To Proceed And To Expedite Judgment Pursuant
To Crim.R. 47 (See Ex. G)
Relator's filed on October 15, 2010 Motion To Take Judicial Notice Of Sup.R. 40 And To
Proceed To Judgment. (See Ex. H)
Sup R 40 state: (A) Review; dismissal; rulings.
(A) Review; dismissal; rulings.

administrative judge shall seek to rectify the delay within sixty days. If the delay is not rectified
within sixty days, the administrative judge shall report the delay to the Case Management
Section of the Supreme Court. ( The administrative judge never reported this Delay to the
Case Management Section of the Supreme Court as stated by Sup. R.40.)
Relator's filed on October 15, 2010 into the First District Court of Appeals a Motion To Remove
The Instanter Appeal From The Accelerated Calender And Stay Adjudication Pending Disposition Of
Trial Court Motion. (See Ex. I)
The Administrative Judge did nothing to adjudicate case of Relator's Motion that was on the
Docket for over (11 months) (See Ex. E)
Both the trial judge and administrative judge were in strict violation of Ohio Codeof Judicial
s
-
Conduct that state:, Canon 2. a Judge Shall Perform the Duties of Judicial Office Impartially,
Competently, and Diligently.Rule 2.5 Competence, diligence, and cooperation
A judge shall perform judicial and administrative duties competently and diligently and shall
comply with guidelines set forth in the Rules of Superintendence for the Courts of Ohio.
(This They Did Not Do)
A judge shall cooperate with other judges and court officials in the administration of court.
A judge should seek the necessary docket time, court staff, expertise, and resources to
discharge all adjudicative and administrative responsibilities. (This They Did Not Do)
In disposing of matters promptly and efficiently, a judge must demonstrate due regard for the
rights of parties to be heard and to have issues resolved without unnecessary cost or delay. A
judge should mor itor and supervise casesin ways that reduce or eliminate dilatory practices,
avoidable delays, and unnecessary costs. (This They Did Not Do)
The Relator must confide to this Honorable Court. That the trial court has demonstrate. It will
not rule on Pro-Se Litigant Motion. Unless Order by the Appellate court. In which again is a Violationof Ohio Code of Judicial Conduct. In disposing of matter promptly, efficiently and avoid delays and
unnecessary costs.
Relator's through his own Due Diligency tried to advise both the trial court and Appeals court of
the Malfeasance that occurred and all pending Motion. ( To No Avail)
Furthermore, let the record reflect that the trial court did not loose Jurisdiction to Rule on All
pending Motion from Relator. Until PRAECIPEwas filed into the First Dist. Court of Appeals by
prosecutor on November 4, 2010. Well beyond the (120days) requirement of Sup. R. 40. (See Ex. J)
Plaintiff finally file his brief on November 12, 2010. Only (46 days) short of a entire year.
Relator's was denied a opportunity to reply to plaintiff brief. Claiming Appeal was on the
accelerated calender. (See Ex. K)
Relator's represents , the Plaintiff received considerable preferential treatment from the court.
Allowing numerous extension of filing time. Over a (11 month ) period. The purpose of App.R. 11.1, is
to eliminate delay and unnecessary expense in effecting just decision on appeal because some cases don
not require as extensive time.
Relator's appeal was Dismiss on December 22, 2010.
Relator's represents to this Honorable Court. That Relator apprise the Appeals Court on January
10, 2011 in his Motion For Reconsideration PursuantTo App. R. 26(A). That under Loc. R. 14(B)
that Relator should be brought back and allow to reply to the erroneous, malicious late filing by

prosecutor Opposition Opposing Relator's Crim. R. 32.1. (See Ex. L)
Relator's filed a Notice Apprising The Court of Timely Filing Motion For Reconsiderationbecause on hindsight It would appear. That Relator Reconsideration filed on January 10, 2011, would be
procedurally time bar from said Dismissal of Relator appeal on December 22, 2010.
Relator's must admit to this Honorable Court. That Relator had anticipated once again such
malfeasance and deception from the court and prosecutor and sent the Motion For Reconsideration
(Certified Mail). (See Ex. M) To avoid what hannen to Relator Motion To Vacate filed under filing.
Motion For Reconsideration was overruled as not well taken.
UNEQUIVOCAL AND UNDISPUTABLE FAg.TS ON THE RECORD
STATEMENT OF FACTS II
Original Transcripts Are Filed In The Ohio Supreme Court under (SC. 05-0165)
Jan 8, 2004 Allege drug transaction with C.I, there is no substantiation (Proof), of an
transaction and nor was any drugs remove from Relator person or property.
Fact: March 8, 2004 plea hearing! Judge state that as long asRelator appears for sentence, the
State of Ohiowould seek for Relator to withdraw the plea with the MDO spec, and re enter a
plea to F-1, carrying a three to ten range, so defendant would only receive an eight year sentence
maximum (trs.p. 24, 25,26)
Claim:Ineffective assistance of counsel occurred when
Relator's was advised, at the plea hearing
that maximum sentence would be (40yrs). By Court,Prosecutor and both defense counsel.
Clearly the Law states under: 2941.25Multiple counts Where the same conduct by
defendant can be construed to constitute two or moreallied offenses of similar import,
the indictment or information may containcounts for all such offenses. The prosecutor
must elect which offense to pursue before trialbecause, the defendant may be
convictedof only one. Obvious their advise was erroneous and does not comport with
rules govern acceptance of guilty plea in accordance to Crim.R.11 state : That
defendant is making the plea voluntarily, with understanding of the nature of he charges
and of the (maximum nenaltv involved,)and, if applicable, that the defendant is not
eligible for probation or for the irrm.position of dommunity control sanctions at the
sentencing hearing.
Fact: Relator's counsel Bennett testified and explain how, both him and co-counsel force, coerced
and pressure Relator into taking the plea. When defendant was very adamant about his innocent.Relator counsel's felt the evident was overwhelming, and that's why counsel coerced and pressure
-7
-
Relator into plea deal. (trs.p. 54-58)
ClaimBoth defense counsel admitted In court. They (Jbrce, Coerced) Relator into pleading guilty
inorder to avoid a(40yrs.) maximum sentence. Thus, due to counsel's Undue Influence
and Coercion. The basictenets of due process require that a guilty plea be made
"knowing, Intelligently and voluntarily. " State v. Engle (1996)74 Ohio St 3d 525 527
Failure on any of these point "renders enforcement of the plea unconstitutional underboth the United States Constitution and the Ohio Constitution. To ensure that a plea is
made knowingly and Intelligently, a trialcourt must engage in oral dailogue with the
defendant in accordance with Crim R. 11(C)(2). State v Sherrard, 9" Dist. No.02ca008065, 2003-Ohio-365,at 116, citing Engle, 74 Ohio St.3d at 527. Crim R. (C)(2)
require that a trial court determine from conversation with the defendant's plea was
voluntarily; 2) whether the understood the effects of the plea at the timehe entered the
plea it; and 3) whether the defendant, at the time he entered his guilty plea, understood
that by entered the plea he was waiving constitutionalrights. Appellant argues that his
plea was not voluntarily because the trial court Coerced him into pleading guilty byonAnQine plea neeotiations. (This (all)
providing him faulty advice and by imnronerlvoccurred to the Relator at the plea hearing. That Relator maximum sentence was
4oyrs.)
Fact: Judge overrules motion to withdraw plea. (trs.p. 165)
Fact: The court: I know there is an extraordinary situationas far as the plea. The plea that I had
before me does not allow me to give him the eight years because, and I will tell you and the
RE1VU representative here, right here, as well as the State, I will not again participate in a plea
situation where it's count on the defendant to plea again in order to get a lesser sentence from the
court. So you can tell both your bosses as well, because we'er in a situation now, where for me to
give defendant eight years that the deal was made for, he's going to have to enter a plea after we
just went through a couple hours of him attempting to withdraw his plea. (trs.p. 165, 166)
Court Seek Help To Correct Manifest Injustice From Defense Counsel and
Prosecutor because, the plea Relator entered on March 8, 2004. Does not allow
Relator to receive the (8yrs.) as promise by the court.
Fact: The court suggest to both prosecutor and defense counsel to think about this, seeking help to
correct miscarriage of manifest injustice. (trs.p. 166)
Fact: The court trying to avert the outcome of unfairness to everybody. (trs.p. 171)
Fact: On that faithful day of April 29, 2004 for sentencing both prosecutor and defense counsels
agree that it's in the best interest for Relator to plea No-Contest. Allowing defendant to receive,
the eight years as Dromise in plea agreement.Thus restricting Relator plea to No-Contest. Only to
help correct manifest injustice (trs.p. 175)
8
-
Fact: On that faithful day of April 30, 2004 for re-sentencing again. The court say it's still willing
to give Relator eieht vearsand the prosecutor agrees (trs.p. 195, 196)
Fact: On April 30, 2004, and the prosecutor Stated: If the Relator comes back in a week and says
I want to re-enter that plea, I want my eight, I'm still going to do that because I think I'm bound
by that and I think that's whats fair. (tr.p. 207)
Claim:'s did return on June 15, 2010, and was
in the same position as though Relator hadRelator'snever been sentence. Thus, on that faithful day Relator could h exerted his original
position and re-enter his plea. To receive the (8yrs) as guaranteein March 8, 2004. (See
trs.p 25,26,27)
Fact: It is undisputed that Boswell sentence is a Void Judgment and It failed to include mandatory
postrelease control, violating R.C. 2967.28.As a result, we place him in the same position that
he would be in if he had never been sentenced and treat his motion to withdraw his guilty
plea as presentencemotion. As explained in Xie 62 Ohio St. 3d at 527 584 N.E.2d 715 such a
motion should be "freely and liberally granted." This does not mean, however, that Boswell has
an absolute right to withdraw his plea. Id.
Claim:On that faithful day of June 15, 2010. Relator was In the same position, as order by
The Ohio Supreme Court."(T]he trial court fail to comply to the order. Whereas Relator
stood handcuff in front of the Courtfor sentencing, and not given a hearing as order bythe Supreme Court. That an hearing must be conduct to determine whether there is a
reasonable and legitimate basisfor the withdrawal of the plea. " (This They Did Not Do)
(See June 15, 2010 hearing Trs.p 2) (Exhibit C)
Fact : On that faithful day of June 15, 2010 at Relator remand/De novo sentencing hearing.
Judgment is void is well established. It is s though such proceedings had never occurred; the
judgment is mere nullity and the parties are in the same position as if there had been no
judgment"(Citations omitted.) Romito v. Maxwell (1967), 10 Ohio St. 2d 266, 267-268. 39
0.O.2d 414, 227 N.E.2d 223. Treatinghis motion to withdraw his guilty plea as a presentence
motion. Wheres the trial court must conduct a hearing to determine whether there is as
reasonable and legitimate basis for the withdrawal of the plea."Relator's was in the same
position as though he was being sentence on Apri129, 30, 2004. Where the court, prosecutor and
Relator attorney's wanted Relator to enter an No-Contest plea, inorder to receive the eight years
sentence as promise. Therefore, the court abused it's discretion, by denying Relator a evidentiary
hearing should have been freely allow, so Relatckcould have weigh all his option and could have
enter an No-Contest plea to receive the eight years! (Trs.p. 175)
Fact: The court further abused it's discretion and show Bias and prejudice when it denied thedefendant a opportunity to be heard on Relator Motion to Vacate plea for Lack of Jurisdiction.
When clearly the motion was filed on that faithful day of June 15, 2010. Against the claim in
which the court say, no motion was on filed! (Relator's Motion was hidden under Filing)
q
-
Claim:The Ohio Supreme Court has recognize that under a void sentence this case illustrates the
danger that results from holdings that a sentencing error is not just a mistake in the
exercise of the court's jurisdiction, but is rather considered a lack of jurisdiction
altogether. A defendant is able to attack his conviction five years lateron a motion to
vacate his guilty plea. But this is only the beginning. Defendants whose sentences failed to
include postrelease control and whose sentences are "void" are arguably entitled to a writ
of habeas corpus. See Davis v. Wolfe (2001). 92 Ohio St. 3d 549 552 751 N.E.2d 1051.(when a court's judgment is void, habeas corpus is generally and appropriate remedy
despite the availability of appeal).
The Relator place the court on notice, that the State lack jurisdiction at the re-
sentencing. Thus making the court dutiful bound and has a obligation of it's own to inquire into
jurisdiction!
Harris v. U.S. 149 F.3d 1304 ("Subject-matter jurisdiction can never be waived orconferred by the consent of the parties."); Ea erton v. Valuations Inc. 698 F.2d 1115 1118
(11' Cir. 1983) ("[I]t is well established that subject matter jurisdiction cannot be waivedor conferred on a court by consent of the parties.") Furthermore, we are bound to assure
ourselves of jurisdiction even if the parties fail to raise the issue. SeeInsuranc ^
Ir. Ltd. 456 U.S. At 702 ("[A] court... will raise lack of subject-matter jurisdiction on its
own motion.");
Fact: The court show prejudicial bias and fraudulent practice when allowing the prosecutor to file
a memorandum in opposition a day before the June 15, 2010 hearing.
Claim:Thus, denying Relator Motion To Vacate to be enter upon the record. The court clearlywas prejudicial against Relator by not apprising Relator of opposition Motion filing.The court explain because it did not have Relator motion before the court. Thus, refusing
to allow Motion To Vacate to be enter on the record. For all purpose of Judicial Fairness
and Courtesy. Clearly, If the court refuse to hear Relator motion on the pretense that no
motion wasfiled and served upon the court. Would not the same apply to Relator, who
was blindsided bythe late filing and No Proof of Service was never made by prosecutor
in a timely matter to Relator. Furthermore, prosecutor was procedurally time bar fromfiling in accordance to Loc. R. 14(B) that [a] fnotion shall be served within ten days fromthe date the memorandum in support of the motion was served," Furthermore, If Relator
would have been apprise of prosecutor motion. Relator's could have exercise his position
under Loc.R 14 (B) for a continuance to reply within (7days). Whereas Relator Motion To
Vacate clearly would have appear before the court.
Point and Case:On that faithful day of April 27, 2004. Hearing for Relator Crim. R. 32.1
the original trial judge on it's own recognize the late notice of filing by defense counsel.
Prosecutor: [I] would also like to note for the record, that I had not received a
copy of the defendant's reply to my motion until a few minute ago.
70
-
The Court : Okay. Do you want to go ahead and proceed then.(trs.p. 48,49)
On June 15, 2010 no one apprise Relator of prosecutor the late filing.
Furthermore, let the record reflect that all claims Relator has raised. This Honorable Court
has already Solidified, validated and Substantiatedevery Legitimate claims
Appeal C-040284 (g 5) Relator's plea was not knowingly, Intelligently and voluntarily
enter because attorney's pressure and coerced Relator. Relator's was afforded a complete Crim. R.
11 hearing before entering plea.
Appeal C-060998 (pg.3-6) Appellatesay: The court erred in failing to permit a reply
under Loc.R. 14(B). Relator's had again been afforded a complete Crim.R 11. Court claim Relator
also purported in his motion to offer, but did not actually provide,his own affidavit stating that
he would not have agreed to the pleas if his trial counsel had advised him concerning forfeiture
and judicial release. (Court fail to acknowledge Affidavit See Ex. N)
Appeal C-09079 Appellatecourt deemed Relator sentence Null and Void.
Counsel was Incompetent, Inadequate and and unprofessional errors. Counsel defient
proformance prejudice Relator by failing to inform Relator about (Mandatory 5yrs. Post-ReleaseControl) That under O.R.C. 2941.25 Multiple Count Indictment Relator could only be convicted
of one and Relator's was not Ineligible for judicial release and Federal Forfeiture.
DISCIPLINARY COUNSEL v. BENNETT.124 Ohio St.3d 314, 921 N.E.2d 1064, 2010 -Ohio- 313
Attorney Clyde Bennett was already committing crinunal activities. While representing Relator,
from October 10, 2003 until September of 2005. Whereas this Honorable Court deemed Bennettactivities and conduct was in violation of rules prohibiting conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit,
or misrepresentation and prohibiting conduct adverselyreflecting on attorney's fitness to uractice
law. Clearly attorney Bennett was unfit to practice law. When given Relator erroneous advice that his
maximum sentence was (40yrs.)
State v. Sarkozy 117 Ohio St.3d 86, 881 N.E.2d 1224, 2008-Ohio-509If the trial court fails during the plea colloquy to advise a defendant that the sentence willinclude a mandatory term of postrelease control, the court fails to comply with Crim.R.
11, and the reviewing court must vacate the plea and remand the cause.
The Court : Upon your your release from prison you couldbe placed on what is call post-
release control, (trs.p. 33)
The Court: If you wereto be placed on post-release control . (trs.p.33)
1}
-
Relator's was never Informed during Plea Colloquy That sentence will include a
(Mandatory Term of Post-Re-lease-Control. Thus Relator Plea Must Be Vacated. (State v.
Sarkory) 117-Ohio-St.3d 86 881 N.E.2d 1224 2008-Ohio-509.Furthermore, Let the record reflect that the trial court failed to Inform Relator of
(Mandatory 5yrs. Term of Post-Release- Control), during the the Plea colloquy on March 8, 2004
and at sentencing on April 30 2004.
Thus, Failure on any of those points renders enforcement of the plea unconstitutional
und"er both the United States Constitution and the Ohio Constitution."State v Fnele (1996), 74
Ohio St id 525 , 527. 660 N.E.2d450. (State v. Sarkory) 117-Ohio-St 3d 86 881 N.E.2d 1224.
2008-Ohio-509.
Thus, the court has violated Relator 1411 Amend to U.S. Cont. of Equal protection, andDue Process under the course of the law, and Ohio Const. Article 1 § 10 and well inveterate Ohio
Rules of Practice and Procedure of the court.
Relator's represents, That he has endure Egregious behavior, Abuse of Discretion and
encounter Manifest injustice from certain Individual in the the judicial system . These Individual
have displayed, that they are exempt from govern Ohio Rules of Practice and Procedure of the
court and contempt for Ohio Code of Judicial Conduct and Professional Conduct.
Relator's must confide to this Honorable Court. These changes of events and occurrence
of pass favorable decision for Relator. Which have now miraculously been swayed and tainted, are
due to the fact. That Relator (Original trial judge) is now in the First District Court of Appeals.
Furthermore, Relator represents that the original trial judge, who is now in the appeals
court and the prosecutor that filed the opposition motion (1) day before the June 15, 11 hearing. Were
indeed the same judge and prosecutor, whoErred in Failing to Permit a Reply under Loc.R.
14(B) 173 Ohio App.3d 709, 880 N.E.2d 143, 2007-Ohio-6217and the same prosecutor. That filed
opposition motion (1) day before the hearing date.
Thus, Ironically thist abuse and perversity of Miscarriage of Injustice has only Increase
over the years. Clearly trying to thwart Relator chances for justice. By making Relator go through
unnecessary obstacle and hurdle to Vacate Relator Plea.
Relator's has presented overwhelming evidence. That Impropriety have occurred and the
out-come clearly would have been different at each junction. If not for the mischievousness from
these Individual.
Relator's trust a thorough investigation will be done and those participant. Who are in
strict violation of Ohio Rules of Practice and Procedure of the Court and None compliance ofOhio Rules Code of Judicial Conduct and of Professional conduct should be sanction by this
Honorable Court.
Furthermore, Relator's confide that he has filed on April 25, 11, a Crim. R. 321, claiming
manifest in justice because, court failed during plea colloquy. To inform Relator that his sentence
12.
-
included a (mandatory 5yrs. Terms of P.R.C.) State v. Sarkory 117-Ohio-St.3d 86, 881 N.E.2d
1224, 2008-Ohio-509. (See Ex. 0)Relator's, has already stated that the trial court refusal to rule on Pro-se Litigant motion.
Unless by means of Procedendo or MamilgMv'ill the trial rule. . It has taken the trial court over
(llmo.) to rule on Relator stay and (lyear) to rule on Relator Motion To Vacate.
More then likely trial court will try and hold Relator Crim.R32.1 filed on Apri125, 2011
for a year. Whereas The Supreme Court has ruled on said decision in State v. Sarkory 117-Ohio-
St.3d 86, 881 N.E.2d 1224, 2008-Ohio-509.
Clearly this in contrary and indicative to Code of Judicial Conduct Rule 2.5 Competence,
diligence, and cooperation A judge should seek the necessary docket time, court staff, expertise,
and resourcesto discharge all adjudicative and administrative responsibilities. In disposing
of matters promptly and efficiently, a judge must demonstrate due regard for the rights of
parties to be heard and tohave issues resolved without unnecessary cost or delay. A judge
should monitor and supervise cases in ways thatreduce or eliminate dilatory practices,
avoidable delays, and unnecessary costs.
The principle concern of Relator is not punishment of society for misdeeds of theCourt and prosecutor but, avoidance of unfairness to the accused. Society wins not onlywhen the guilty are convicted but, when criminal trials are fair; our system of the
administration of justice suffer when any accused is treated unfairly.
Therefore, a Dead Bang Winner isdefined: When the court did not recognize and
adjudicating all these claims, the trial court failed to determine that these claims wasDead bang
Winners. Dead Bang Winnersis of the type that is obvious upon the trial court record; tends to
Leap Out even upon a casual reading of thePlea on March 8, 2004, sentencing on April 29, 30,
2004 and the entire transcripts.All claims and error necessarily would have resulted in reversal.
(Matire v. Wainwright, 811 R2d 1430, 1438 (11". Circuit., 1987)
CONCLUSIONRelief sough, Is that Relator be Immediately remanded back and allow Relator to reply to
prosecutor opposition Motion under Loc.R. 14(B). Furthermore, command the court to treat
Relator's Motion To Withdraw his Guilty Pleafrom a J^ nt as a pre-sentence
motion, and a hearing should be "freelyand liberally granted." Pursuant to the command,
charge, ordered and Injunction by theOhio Supreme Court in State v. Xie (1992), 62 Ohio
St. 3d 52, State v. Boswell (2009) 121 Ohio St. 3d 575, Simpkins(2008) 117 Ohio St. 3d 420
and Bezak (2007) 114 Ohio St 3d 94.Whereas, Relator can weigh all his option and position.
ThatRelator Plea should be clearly Vacated. In accordance with The Ohio Supreme Court ruling.That say: If the trial court fails during the plea colloquy to advise a defendant that the sentencewill include a mandatory term of postrelease control, the court fails to comply with Crim.R. 11,
and the reviewingcourt must vacate the lea and remand the cause.
State v. Sarkozy (117
Ohio St.3d 86, 881 N.E.2d 1224, 2008-Ohio-509) Furthermore, Relator seeks a Certificate of
Assignment from the Chief Justice. To promote public confidence and fairness in regard to any
appeals that may ensue on behalf of Relator in the First District Appeals Court.

CASE N0^^309830
FEDMOTION TO VACATE THE PLEA
EPTERED ON MARCH 8,2004 FOR
LACK OF .TURISDICTIOId
Now comes La'Mon Akemon,Defendant,and hereby moves this Court to VACATE the
plea entered on March 8,2004 for lack of jurisdiction. Reasons for the instant
motion are more fully articulated in the Memorandum that follows.
PffiMORAN13i1M
The Defendant,La'Mon Akemon (hereinafter "Defendant"),represents to this Court
that on March 8,2004 the Defendant was induced to enter a plea of guilty,under duress,
that was placed upon the Defendant by the.March 8,2004 trial court/judge,the govern-
ment prosecutor,and the Defendant's attorney's that were representing him.on that
fateful day,working in concert to induce said plea. The participation,on the part
of the trial court/judge,alone,clearly demonstrates that the trial court/judge was
not acting as an °'equal and unbiased arbitrator",by actively participating in the
inducement of the guilty plea of the Defendant. Also,by the trial court/judge
actively participating in the inducement of the plea of guilty,severely negates
the voluntariness of the Defendant in entering said plea.
After the highly questionable voluntariness of the Defendant in entering said
plea of guilty,the trial court/judge failed to further comply with Criffi.R.11(C)(2)(a)
by failing to advise the Defendant that the sentence would includea mandatory term
of post-release control. This non-compliance of Crim.R.11(C`)(2)(a) demonstrates
that the plea mustbe vacated as this Court must follow the mandates directed by
1
-
the Ohio Supreme Court as held in State v. Sarkozy,117 Ohio St.3d 86,at paragraph
two of the syllabus and,State v. Clark,119 Ohio St.3d 239;See also O.R.C. §2967.28.
Moreover,by the non'=compliance of Crim.R.11(C)(2)(a) and the trial court/judge
finding the Defendant guilty and entering a conviction upon the Defendant,as
evidenced in the record,then further sentencing the Defendant to (10) ten years
in the Ohio Department of Corrections without including the mandatory term of
post-release control,further establishes exactly where the trial court/judge lost
jurisdiction and exceeded its authority and entered a void judgrnent against the
Defendant. O.R.C. §2967.28;State v. Simkins,117 Ohio St.3d 420. In Simkins,the
Ohio Supreme Court reasoned that this stems from "the fundamental understanding
that no court has the authority to substitute a different senterice for that which
is required by law." Simkins,supra,at ¶20 citing Colegrovev. Burns(1964),175 Ohio
St. 437,438. A sentence that does not comport *578 with statutory requirements is
contrary to law,and the trial judge is acting without authority in imposing it.
Id. at ¶21.
The Defendant has established the void judgment and the state government2'
prosecutor has conceded to same. This void judgment brings the Defendant back
before this Court and places him in the position he would have been in had there
been no sentence. See State v..La'Mon Akemon,caseno.C-090749,F:Lrst-District Court
of Appeals,HamiltonCounty -0hio;State v. Bezak;314 Ohio St,3d 94. The Defendant
being in the position that he would have been in had there been no sentence entered,
the Defendant is hereby moving this Court to VACATE the plea entered by Defendant
for the non-compliance of Crim.R.11(C)(2)(a) to wit: the trial court's failure to
notify the Defendant of the mandatory termof (5) five years post-release control
which is the maximum statutory mandate under O.R.C. §2967.28.
Wherefore,for the reasons stated herein,the Defendant moves this Court to
VACATE the unlawful plea entered on March 8,2004 for the non-compliance of Cri.R.

11(C)(2)(a) which has negated the voluntariness of Defendant's plea and invalidated
the conviction entered by the trial court on March 8,2004.

STATE OF OHIO . Case No. B-0309830
Plaintiff Judge Jody M. Luebbers
vs.
LA'MON AKEMON
Defendant
STATE'S SENTENCINGMEMORANDUM ANDMEMORANDUM INOPPOSITION TO MOTION TOWITHDRAW PLEA
On April 6, 2010, the Court of Appeals remanded the case to this Court for a re-
sentencing hearing so that this Court could properly notify Akemon that he is subject to
five years mandatory post-release control.'
The State requests that this Court sentence Akemon to his original ten year
aggregate sentence in the Department of Corrections for the two counts of trafficking to
which he plead guilty in 2004. (See sentencing entry attached.) This time, however, the
trial court must also notify Akemon that he is subject to a five year mandatory term of
post-release control.2
The State also requests that this Court deny defendant's April 19, 2010 Motion to
Withdraw Plea. Akemon again seeks to withdraw his plea and asks this Court to employ
the more liberal pre-sentence standard. His motion should be denied.
Crim.R. 32.1 states that a "motion to withdraw a plea of guilty or no contest may
be made only before sentence is imposed; but to correct manifest injustice the court after
sentence may set aside the judgment of conviction and permit the defendant to withdraw
State v. Akemon, C-090749 (April 6,2010) (attached)z See R.C. 2929.19(B)(3)(c), R.C. 2967.28(Bx1)

AND REML TlE uEFEWW FOR A HEARING
7Si8T CampolUS WTTx DDE PROCESS AIND
(1tIM.R. 32.1
Now comes La'Mon Akemon,Defendant (Pro-Se),and hereby moves this Court to
STAY entry of any judgment from the hearing that was held on June 15,2010 and
for this Court to RECALL the Defendant for a proper hearing that cantorts with
Due Process Rights of the Defendant and his right to an Evidentiary Hearing as
mandated by the Ohio Supreme court in State v. Xie (1992),62 Ohio St.3d 521 and
Ohio Crim.R.32.1. Reasons for the instant motion are more fully articulated in
the Memorandum that follows.
N>ENCRANDUM
The Defendant, La. ' Mon Akemon (hereinafter "Defendant"),represe.nts to this
Court that on April 6,2010 the First District Court of Appeals VACATED the Defe-
ndant's sentence and remanded the Defendant's case back to this Court due to the
initial sentence that was imposed by this Court being rendered a nullity and thus,
VOID.
The Defendant further represents to this Court that on April 19,2010,he filed
aPro-Se Motion To Withc"ii'aw his Guilty Plea" and thus, said motion must be cons-
idered a"Pre-Sentence Motion" and should be freely and liberally granted. State
v. goswell (2009),121 Ohio St3d 575.
1
-
The original Entry from the First District Court of Appeals dated April 6,
2010,ordered that the remand and any hearing be conducted and the record suppll-
emented by May 26,2010. In the event that the record was not supplemented "coun-
sel for Appelle,State of Ohio,was ordered to file a Memorandum regarding the sta-
tus of the remand by May 28,2010.
The Plaintiff's DID NOT comply with the order of the First District Court
of Appeals or the Plaintiff blatantly refused to serve any Memorandum upon the
Defendant despite the fact that he is a"PARTY" and entitled to NOTICE of ALL
filings. Moreover,the Defendant DID NOT receive or hear anything from April 6,
2010 until June 9,2010,the day the Iiamilton County Sheriff picked the Defendant
up from Dayton Correctional Institution and transported him to the Hamilton County
Jail to await the surprise scheduled hearing on June 15,2010.
During this Lapse of time between. April 19,2010-the filing of Defendant's
Crim. R.32.1 Motion and,transport to the Hamilton county Jail on June 9,2010,the
Defendant DID NOT receive any "opposition" from the Plaintiff,State of Ohio,purs-
uant to I.oc. R. 14(B) thus,the Defendant was planning on,at the very least,his
Due process Right to the evidentiary hearing as is mandated by the Ohio Supreme
Court in Xie & Boswell,supra. This basic fundamental Due Process right was comp-
letely thwarted by the in concert witchhunt tactics of the state government Pros-
ecutor,Philip CunMings,Timothy R. Cutcher,the completely ineffective attorney
appointed to the Defendant and,Judge Jody Luebbers,acting as trier of fact.
Furthermore,the Defendant filed on June 15,2010 a "Motion To Vacate the Plea
entered on March 8,2004 for Lack of Jurisdiction". The Defendant served the Plai-
ntiff on June 10,2010,actually the Defendant placed said Motion in the mailbox
at Dayton Correctional Institution the morning of June 9,2010. At the hearing on
June 15,2010,the Defendant attempted to address the court regarding said Motion,
however,the Court muzzled the Defendant and threatened the Defendant with sanc-
tions of contempt and additional time added to the original Ten year sentence,
2
-
when the Defendant was merely attempting to aprise the Court of this Motion
that contained the Jurisdictional defects that the Court SHOULD have recognized
on its own. On this fateful day,when the wheels of justice came to a grinding
tted to proceedhalt against the Defendant,the Plaintiff,State of Ohio,N1AS perml
on his motion in Opposition that was filed on june 14,2010,and the Certificate
of Service indicates that this Motion in opposition was deliberately sent to
Dayton Correctional Institution when the Hamilton County Prosecutor,Philip Cumm-
ings,was fully aware that the Defendant was being housed at the Hamilton County
Jail. Moreover,the court appointed attorney for the Defendant was NOT served with
this motion in opposition. These acts are plain and obvious and,ser've to thwart
any Due process Rights of Notice and an opportunitY for the Defendant to be heard
in "REPLY".
Furthermore,for this Court to entertain these fraudulant tactics,it is apparent
that justice fortheefendant is being obstructed. This is a crime in the State
of Ohio and negates any irmnw'iities that may be obsexved.
The Defendant has attempted to formally bring fundamental constitutional
rights that are guaranteed to the Defendant,directly to the attention of this
Court through his filings of April 19,2010 and june 15, 2010, regarding substantial
judicial compliance and fairness,to absolutely no avail. These fundamental const-
itutional deprivations have to be attributed as subjecting the Defendant to a
biased and hostile environment without due process of law. The Court,as trier
of fact,should have recognized,on its own accord,the lack of subject matter'jur'is-
diction regarding the imposition of Post-Release control and,at the very least,
should have permitted the Defendant an opportunity to be heard on his June 15,2010
filing as the Plaintiff was on their June 14,2010 filing.
Pursuant to Loc. R. 14(B) the Defendant MUST be Provided the opportunity
to "REPLY" to the Plaintiff's motion in Opposition filed on June 14,2010,that
was N(7F served and received by the Defendant until june 18,2010 after his return
3
-
to the Dayton Correctional Institution on June 17,2010.
In support of all of the contentions made herein by the Defandant,the Defe-
ndant offers the following as the "Defendant's Exhibits A,B_,& C".
1) "Defandant,s Echibit A,Department of Rehabilitation and Correction letter^^
signed by Alan Mattingly,Institution Inspector,dated june 21,2010;
2) "Defendant's E^hibit B",copy of "^4a1 Mail Log° from Dayton Correctional
bearing receipt of the Plaintiff's "Motion in opposition";Institution
3) °Defe^idant's Exhibit C",coPY of the Envelope that the Plaintiff'-s "Motion
In opposition" was sent in bearing a U.S. postal Service stamP date of June 15,
2010,again,displaying the fraudulant representations of service. The Fntry dated
June 15,2010 "Denying the Defendant to Withdraw Plea",is a clear fraudulant act
in concert with the State of Ohio,therebY violating the Defet1dant's Due Process
rights under Im• R. 14(B)- Moreover,the Entry does NOT contain the "findings
of fact and Conclusions of law"to support the denial that was speclfically moved
for by the Defendant's filing of April 19,2010.
Wherefore,for the reasons stated herein,the Defendant,ta'Mon Akemon,hereby
moves this Court to SrAY EntrY of any Judgment from the hearing that was held on
June 15,2010 and for this Court to RECALL the Defendant for a proper hearing that
comports with the Defendant's Due Process rights of an Evidentiary Hearing that
is in accordance to the mandate of the Ohio SuPreme Court under Xie= ^,
supra,and crim. R. 32.1. In addition QRA1T an Extension for the Defendant to "R.EPLY"
to the Plaintiff's Motion in opposition*

entry that the trial court did not have jurisdiction to enter or pass upon due to the trial court's Lack of
Jurisdiction as clearly demonstrated in the Defendant's filing Time Stamped and dated June 15,2010 by
the Clerk of Courts Hamilton County. Reasons for the instant motion are more fully articulated in the
Memorandum that follows.
MEMORANDUM
The Defendant,La'Mon Akemon (hereinafter "Defendant"),represents to this Court that on June
15,2010 the Defendant attempted to bring to this Court's attention through a Pro-Se filing and orally
('fr.,pgs.2,3,&17),the Lack of Jurisdiction over the Defendant regarding the original plea that was
entered into on March 8,2004. However,the trial court blatently refused to,at the very least,inquire into
the lack of Jurisdiction as is required by Crim.R.12(C)(2) on its own. Ohio's Crim.R.12(C)(2) states
in very pertinent part: ... " Defenses and objections based on defects in the indictment, inforniation, or
9AfIINl91
-
complaint (other than failure to show jurisdiction in the court or to charge an offense, which objections
shall be noticed by the court at any time during the pendency of the proceeding)". A reasonable
inference can be drawn that this Rule imparts an obligation on the trial court,or any court for that
matter,to inquire into the jurisdiction or lack thereof atanytime during the pendency of the proceedings.
.Moreover,the Defendant's assertions in his filing dated June 15,2010 clearly mandates this Court to
follow the Rules promulgated by the Ohio Supreme Court,specifically,Crim.R.12(I') which also states
in pertinent part: ... "The court may adjudicate a motion based upon briefs, affidavits, the proffer of
testimony and exhibits, a hearing, or other appropriate means. A motion made pursuant to divisions
(C)(1) to (C)(5) of this rule shall be determined before trial. Any other motion made pursuant to
division (C) of this rule shall be determined before trial whenever possible. `Where the court defers
ruling on any motion made by the prosecuting attomey before trial and makes a ruling adverse to the
prosecuting attomey after the commencement of trial, and the ruling is appealed pursuant to law with
the certification required by division (K) of this rule, the court shall stay the proceedings without
discharging the jury or dismissing the charges. A motion made pursuant to divisions (C)(1) to (C)(5) of
this rule shall be determined before trial".(emphasis added). The Defendant asserts and represents to
this Court that his filing dated June 15,2010 was titled and captioned "Motion To Vacate The Plea
Entered on March 8,2004 For Lack of Jurisdiction" which clearly implicates Crim.R.12(C)(2).
The Defendant represents to this Court that he attempted to bring ali of these relevant and
pertinent factors regarding this Court's lack of jurisdiction to the attention of this Court through his
filing on June 15,2010 and also orally on June 15,2010,despite the fact that this Court should have
recognized the lack of jurisdiction on its own accord,through his clear representations and objections at
the hearing conducted on June 15,2010. See "Exhibit A" attached (Transcripts of the June 15,2010
hearing pgs.2,3,14,17). This Court proceeded as if the representations and objections had absolutely no
bearing or meaning whatsoever. Then this Court proceeded to blatently deny the Defendant's

Crim.R.32.1 motion without a seperate,complete, and impartial hearing as is required under State v.
Xie (1992),62 Ohio St.3d 521 and State v. $oswell(2009),121 Ohio St.3d 575. Crim.R.32.1.
Moreover,this Court refused to enter itsfendings offact andconclusions of law to support its decision
as was also requested clearly by the Defendant in his Pro-Se filing on April 19,2010 when this Court
denied the Defendant's "Motion To Withdraw Plea Pursuant To Crim.R.32.1" filed for record on April
19,2010.gurthermore,on June 25,2010 the Defendant filed yet another Pro-Se filing titled and captioned
"Motion To Stay Entry ofAny Judgment From the Hearing Held on June 15,2010 and Recall the
Defendant For a Hearing that Comports With Due Process and Crim R.32.1 "in order to give this
Court the opportunity to rectify the due process deprivations being suffered by the Defendant and to
also preserve the Defendant's right to appeal and toll the time limit described in App.R.4(A). This pro-
se filing, as the pro-se filing of June 15,2010,has NOT been ruled upon by this Court to date.
The Defendant's Due Process rights are clearly being jeopardized by this Court's blatent refusal
to comply with Crim.R.12(T) and render a ruling with regards to the defendant's pro-se filings filed for
record on Jurie 15,2010 and June 25,2010.
Wherefore,the Defendant hereby moves this Court to Proceed To and Expedite Judgment
Pursuant To Crim.I2.47 on hz,gpro-sefilings filed for record on June 15,2010 and June 25,2010.
