{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals dismissing the 
petition of appellant, Timothy A. Miller, for a writ of habeas corpus.  Miller 
previously filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus that raised the same issues 
as in this petition.  Miller v. Eberlin, 116 Ohio St.3d 1434, 2007-Ohio-6518, 877 
N.E.2d 987.  Res judicata barred Miller from filing a successive habeas corpus 
petition.  Amstutz v. Eberlin, 119 Ohio St.3d 421, 2008-Ohio-4538, 894 N.E.2d 
1219, ¶ 7. 
Judgment affirmed.
