Submitted April 26, 2000.
Decided August 30, 2000.
Appeal from the Court of Appeals for Franklin County, No. 99AP-235.
Paul Mancino, Jr., for appellant.
Betty D. Montgomery, Attorney General, and Jihad M. Smaili, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
Appellant had adequate legal remedies to raise his claims. Moreover, habeas corpus, not mandamus, is the proper action to seek release from prison. See State ex rel. Milner v. Ohio Adult Parole Auth. (2000), 87 Ohio St.3d 567, 568, 722 N.E.2d 72. Accordingly, the judgment of the court of appeals is affirmed.
