Opinion

Per Curiam.

Lawrence E. Wilson, pro se. Richard Cordray, Attorney General, and Thelma Thomas Price, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

{¶ 1} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals dismissing the petition of appellant, Lawrence E. Wilson, for a writ of habeas corpus. As the court of appeals properly held, habeas corpus is not available to raise Wilson’s various claims. See Shroyer v. Banks, 123 Ohio St.3d 88, 2009-Ohio-4080, 914 N.E.2d 368, ¶ 1 (validity of charging instrument and ineffective assistance of counsel); Durain v. Sheldon, 122 Ohio St.3d 582, 2009-Ohio-4082, 913 N.E.2d 442, ¶ 1 (sentencing entry violating Crim.R. 32); Cammon v. Brigano, 101 Ohio St.3d 133, 2004-Ohio-316, 802 N.E.2d 656, ¶ 2, 4 (improper jury instructions and erroneous admission of “other acts” evidence); Tucker v. Collins (1992), 64 Ohio St.3d 77, 78, 591 N.E.2d 1241 (invalid waiver of counsel); Junius v. Eberlin, 122 Ohio St.3d 53, 2009-Ohio-2383, 907 N.E.2d 1179, ¶ 1 (actual innocence); State ex rel. Jaffal v. Calabrese, 105 Ohio St.3d 440, 2005-Ohio-2591, 828 N.E.2d 107, ¶ 5 (sentencing errors); Bussey v. Maxwell (1965), 2 Ohio St.2d 143, 144, 31 O.O.2d 236, 207 N.E.2d 244 (denial of right to fair trial); Tucker v. McAninch (1998), 82 Ohio St.3d 423, 696 N.E.2d 595 (due process); Norris v. Wilson, Richland App. No. 04 CA 33, 2005-Ohio-4594, 2005 WL 2106538 (violation of Crim.R. 43(A)). We deny appellant’s motion to correct the case caption on his notice of appeal and merit brief.

Judgment affirmed.
