Ohio Supreme Court June 11, 1997, No. 96-221 (State v. Gillard)

lead-opinion

Cook, J.

Given our determination in Gillard II, the tasks remaining in this case include a review of the issue of the alleged conflict of interest of appellant’s trial counsel and our own independent review of the appropriateness and proportionality of the death sentences pursuant to R.C. 2929.05(A).
