[Cite as State ex rel. Earl v. Mitchell (1999), 87 Ohio St.3d 259.]
(No. 99-1262
Submitted November 3, 1999
Decided December 1, 1999.)
Jonathan Earl, pro se.
Betty D. Montgomery, Attorney General, and Laurence R. Snyder, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals. A claimed violation of R.C. 2945.05 is not the proper subject for habeas corpus relief and may be remedied only in a direct appeal from a criminal conviction. Jackson v. Rose (1997), 79 Ohio St.3d 51, 679 N.E.2d 684, 685; State v. Pless (1996), 74 Ohio St.3d 333, 658 N.E.2d 766, paragraph two of the syllabus.
Judgment affirmed.
Moyer, C.J., Douglas, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney, Pfeifer, Cook and Lundberg Stratton, JJ., concur.
