Mitchell, Appellant, v. Smith, Warden, Appellee.
    [Cite as Mitchell v. Smith, 120 Ohio St.3d 278, 2008-Ohio-6108.]
    (No. 2008-1521
    Submitted November 19, 2008
    Decided December 2, 2008.)
    Ervin L. Mitchell, pro se.
    Nancy Hardin Rogers, Attorney General, and William H. Lamb, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
   Per Curiam.

{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals dismissing the petition of appellant, Ervin L. Mitchell, for a writ of habeas corpus because a claimed violation of Crim.R. 32(C) does not entitle an inmate to immediate release from prison. Instead, if a violation is established, “the appropriate remedy is resentencing instead of outright release.” McAllister v. Smith, 119 Ohio St.3d 163, 2008-Ohio-3881, 892 N.E.2d 914, ¶ 9.

Judgment affirmed.

Moyer, C.J., and Pfeifer, Lundberg Stratton, O’Connor, O’Donnell, Lanzinger, and Cupp, JJ., concur. 
      
      . We deny Mitchell’s motion for oral argument.
