        {¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals denying the writ of
habeas corpus requested by appellant, Terrance Quillen.                    His June 2001
sentencing entry “sufficiently included language that postrelease control was part
of his sentence so as to afford him sufficient notice to raise any claimed errors on
appeal rather than by extraordinary writ.” State ex rel. Pruitt v. Cuyahoga Cty.
Court of Common Pleas, 125 Ohio St. 3d 402, 2010-Ohio-1808, 928 N.E.2d 722,
¶ 4; McGee v. Sheldon, 132 Ohio St. 3d 89, 2012-Ohio-2217, 969 N.E.2d 262, ¶ 1.
The sentencing entry “constituted a final, appealable order, and he had an
adequate remedy by way of appeal to raise his claims.” State ex rel. Castro v.
Corrigan, 129 Ohio St. 3d 342, 2011-Ohio-4059, 952 N.E.2d 497, ¶ 3.
                                                                        Judgment affirmed.

and MCGEE BROWN, JJ., concur.
        LANZINGER, J., concurs in judgment only.
