HUGHLEY v. SAUNDERS (2009)

  {¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals denying the petition of appellant, Kevin Hughley, for a writ of habeas corpus.   Hughley had an adequate  remedy by appeal to raise any error by the trial court in calculating his jail-time credit.  State ex rel. Rudolph v. Horton, 119 Ohio St.3d 350, 2008-Ohio-4476, 894 N.E.2d 49, ¶ 3.   Moreover, because he attacks only one of his sentences, he is not entitled to the writ.   “ ‘Where a petitioner is incarcerated for several crimes, the fact that the sentencing court may have lacked jurisdiction to sentence him on one of the crimes does not warrant his release in habeas corpus.’ ”  Keith v. Bobby, 117 Ohio St.3d 470, 2008-Ohio-1443, 884 N.E.2d 1067, ¶ 13, quoting Swiger v. Seidner (1996), 74 Ohio St.3d 685, 687, 660 N.E.2d 1214.

Judgment affirmed.
