Shelton appeal dismissed over indigent fee certificate
Elyria Ninth District Court of Appeals dismissed the appeal of Jeremy Shelton, 22, who was convicted of attacking his family with a claw hammer. He received nine years on three counts each of aggravated murder and felonious assault after pleading no contest to the April 17, 1997, attack. The court ruled the waiver of the $85 filing fee was invalid due to a missing warden certificate of indigence.
