Opinion
{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals dismissing the petition of appellant, James R. Shroyer, for a writ of habeas corpus. Habeas corpus is not available to challenge the validity of a charging instrument. McCuller v. Hudson, 121 Ohio St.3d 168, 2009-Ohio-721, 902 N.E.2d 979, ¶1. In addition, Shroyer’s plea of guilty to the charges contained in the bill of information waived his claimed right to an indictment. State ex rel. Morris v. Leonard (1999), 86 Ohio St.3d 624, 625, 716 N.E.2d 208. Finally, Shroyer’s claim of ineffective assistance of counsel is not cognizable in habeas corpus. Everett v. Eberlin, 114 Ohio St.3d 199, 2007-Ohio-3832, 870 N.E.2d 1190, ¶ 6.
Judgment affirmed.
