Per Curiam.

We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals. App.R. 26(B)(1) clearly provides that a “defendant in a criminal case may apply for reopening of the appeal from the judgment of conviction and sentence, based on a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel.” (Emphasis added.) Since the judgment that Loomer complains about was an appeal from a motion to dismiss, and not an appeal from a judgment of conviction and sentence, no basis existed under App.R. 26(B) to reopen the appeal.

Judgment affirmed.

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