Description
This is an appeal by James Nelson Coleman, petitioner-appellant, from an order of the United States District Court of the Northern District of Ohio, denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The appellant is confined in the Chillicothe Correctional Institute at Chillicothe, Ohio, on conviction of three counts of Breaking and Entering under Section 2907.09, Ohio Revised Code, and three counts of Grand Larceny under Section 2907.20, Ohio Revised Code. The appellant was sentenced thirty years to life on each of the Breaking and Entering counts and one to seven years on each of the Grand Larceny counts. The Breaking and Entering sentences were to run concurrently with each other and the Larceny sentences were to run concurrently with each other but consecutively to the Breaking and Entering sentences. The appellant claims that the trial court committed error in permitting the jury to return verdicts of guilty on both Breaking and Entering and Larceny where both offenses arose out of the same transaction, and that this constituted double jeopardy in violation of the Fifth Amendment. He also claims that there was a duplicity of sentence in giving consecutive sentences on the Breaking and Entering and Larceny convictions.
