The State of Ohio, Appellee, v. Sibert, Appellant.
    [Cite as State v. Sibert (1996), 74 Ohio St.3d 342.]
    
      (No. 95-1396
    Submitted September 26, 1995
    Decided January 17, 1996.)
    
      Greg Carroll, Adams County Prosecuting Attorney, for appellee.
    
      Jeffrey B. Sibert, pro se.
    
   Per Curiam.

The judgment of the court of appeals is affirmed for the reason stated above. On appeal, appellant alleges failure of trial counsel to present the issue of his mental competence. Apparently, the issue was not raised in the court of appeals; therefore, we will not consider it for the first time on appeal. Zakany v. Zakany (1984), 9 Ohio St.3d 192, 193, 9 OBR 505, 506-507, 459 N.E.2d 870, 872.

Judgment affirmed.

Moyer, C.J., Douglas, Wright, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney, Pfeifer and Cook, JJ., concur.
