Per Curiam.
{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals denying the motion
of appellant, Dana Goins, for leave to file a second petition for a writ of habeas
corpus. Res judicata bars Goins from filing a successive habeas corpus petition to
raise claims that he raised or could have raised in his previous petition. See State
ex rel. Johnson v. Pineda, 126 Ohio St.3d 480, 2010-Ohio-4387, 935 N.E.2d 38, ¶
1.1
Judgment affirmed.
O’CONNOR, C.J., and PFEIFER, LUNDBERG STRATTON, O’DONNELL,
LANZINGER, CUPP, and MCGEE BROWN, JJ., concur.
