2018Mahoning No. 17MA0025, 2018-Ohio-447 , the appellate court recently noted at ¶ 18, that “[a] retrial is not barred on double jeopardy grounds where the state's mere negligence, rather than intentional misconduct, required the trial court to grant a mistrial on a defense motion.

2018Hodges, supra, citing State v. Wood, 114 Ohio App.3d 395, 400 , 683 N.E.2d 354 (10th Dist.1996), citing United States v. Dinitz, 424 U.S. 600, 607,611 , 96 S.Ct. 1075 (1976). {¶52} More importantly, the State had no way of knowing Appellant’s counsel represented Cory Forshey in an unrelated matter and hence, no way of knowing that use of the texts would place Appellant’s counsel in the position of having a conflict of interest.

2018Montgomery No. 10708, 1988 Ohio App. LEXIS 5113 , *6-10 (Dec. 23, 1988) (affirming trial court judgment where defendant engaged in disruptive conduct in front of prospective jurors, ranting at the trial judge and flipping over the defense table); State v. Bey, 85 Ohio St.3d 487, 500-501 , 1709 N.E.2d 484 (1999) (finding that defendant “created the outburst, so he may not persuasively argue that he is entitled to a mistrial or an instruction to the jury to disregard his own behavior”). {¶ 27} We agree with the conclusions reached by these courts.

2011In State v. Calhoun (1985), 18 Ohio St.3d 373 , 18 OBR 429, 481 N.E.2d 624 , the Ohio Supreme Court found that the subsequent retrial of a criminal defendant based on the same indictment is not barred by double jeopardy where a trial judge sua sponte dismisses a case midtrial due to an “unconstitutionally vague” indictment.

2011In State v. Calhoun (1985), 18 Ohio St.3d 373 , 18 OBR 429, 481 N.E.2d 624 , the Ohio Supreme Court found that the subsequent retrial of a criminal defendant based on the same indictment is not barred by double jeopardy where a trial judge sua sponte dismisses a case midtrial due to an “unconstitutionally vague” indictment.

2008Accordingly, the appellate court held that double jeopardy did not bar reprosecution of the defendant. {¶ 31} In Earnest v. Dorsey (C.A.10, 1996), 87 F.3d 1123 , 1128 , a defense counsel asked for a mistrial due to the trial court's "improper involvement in the case." The trial court noted that the defendant could be retried after the mistrial, and the trial court granted the mistrial on defense's motion.

2008Oregon v. Kennedy (1982), 456 U.S. 667 , 673 ; United States v. Dinitz (1976), 424 U.S. 600 , 607 .

2008For these reasons expressed in Hurd, Dorsey , and Million , the defense's attempt to withdraw the mistrial motion after the trial court declared the *Page 16 mistrial does not preclude us from concluding, for purposes of a double jeopardy analysis, that the trial court granted a mistrial at the defense's request. {¶ 37} In so concluding, we find inapposite appellant's reliance on City of N. Olmsted v. Himes , Cuyahoga App. No. 84076, 2004-Ohio-4241 .

1999As appellants correctly argued at the mistrial hearing, “a defendant is entitled to discovery of relevant written or recorded statements made by him, and it is not within the province of the state to determine, and then to provide, only that which the state believes to be relevant to the defense.” State v. Moore (1988), 40 Ohio St.3d 63 , 531 N.E.2d 691 , syllabus.
