State v. Wilson
| 2025-0322 | Criminal law—Preindictment delay—A defendant challenging preindictment delay on due-process grounds has the burden to establish both (1) that he was actually prejudiced by the delay and (2) that the delay was an intentional device to gain a tactical advantage for the State—Establishing actual prejudice requires showing that missing evidence would be favorable, material, and noncumulative—State v. Luck and its progeny overruled—Appellant failed to satisfy his burden to show that he was actually prejudiced by preindictment delay—Court of appeals’ judgment affirming trial court’s judgment denying appellant’s motion to dismiss indictment based on preindictment delay affirmed. | Deters, J. | Slip Opinion No. 2026-Ohio-3988 |

State v. Thoen
| 2025-0093 | Criminal law—Double jeopardy—Whether the Double Jeopardy Clauses of the United States and Ohio Constitutions bar further proceedings depends on whether a defendant has acquired a legitimate expectation of finality in the guilty-plea proceeding and whether concerns of prosecutorial overreach are implicated—Appellant’s guilty plea to an unlawful bill of information could not culminate in a lawful judgment of conviction, and the finality interests were therefore never implicated—Court of appeals’ judgment affirmed. | Shanahan, J. | Slip Opinion No. 2026-Ohio-3976 |
