## Opinion text

Per Curiam.
Appellant raises the following constitutional issues: right to counsel, prosecutorial misconduct, right to a speedy trial, denial of due process, and effective assistance of counsel. All these issues are appropriately raised by appeal or through post-conviction relief proceedings under R.C. 2953.21 through 2953.23, but not *56 by petition for habeas corpus. Habeas corpus “is not and never was a post-conviction remedy for the review of errors or irregularities of an accused’s conviction or for a retrial of the guilt or innocence of an accused. * * *” Walker v. Maxwell (1965), 1 Ohio St. 2d 136, 137 , 30 O.O. 2d 487, 488, 205 N.E. 2d 394, 395 .
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the court of appeals.
Judgment affirmed.
Moyer, C.J., Sweeney, Locher, Holmes, Douglas, Wright and H. Brown, JJ., concur.
