## Facts

- Ricky Baugh and three juveniles—Greg Cain, Gary Worley, and Jeff Niehaus—agreed on a plan to rob a café.
- Baugh and the juveniles drove together to the café to carry out the planned robbery.
- After looking through a café window, Baugh, Cain, and Worley went into the café while Niehaus stayed in the car.
- Baugh had a gun in the car and may have taken it into the café.
- One juvenile had a gun, and one juvenile carried a pillowcase.
- Baugh, Cain, and Worley were wearing or carrying knit caps when they entered the café.
- After entering, the three went into the restroom.
- Cain and Worley later left the restroom and sat in the tavern area of the café.
- Baugh went to the delicatessen area of the café.
- After a few minutes, Cain and Worley left the café; Baugh remained for about ten more minutes and then left.
- A police officer responding to a call searched Baugh but did not find a weapon on him.
- After the group drove away, police stopped the car and searched it.
- The search of the car uncovered two pistols and a pillowcase.
- Baugh was convicted of conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery and appealed.

## Issues

1. Whether the record supported Baugh’s conviction for conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery based on the group’s planned café robbery and the evidence recovered after the stop.
2. Whether any error raised on appeal required appellate relief from the conspiracy conviction.

## Decision

- Baugh appealed his conviction for conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery to the Ohio Court of Appeals.
- The decision is identified as an unpublished 1978 opinion with the electronic citation 1978 WL 216550.
- Publicly available materials describing this case do not include the appellate court’s stated issues, reasoning, or final disposition (for example, whether the conviction was affirmed or reversed).

## Legal Principles

- The available, public case information confirms the prosecution theory and proof focused on a planned robbery involving multiple participants, entry into the café in furtherance of that plan, and recovery of firearms and a pillowcase after the stop.
- Because the opinion text is not available from public sources, this brief cannot reliably state the court’s rule statements, standard of review, or the specific basis on which the appellate court resolved the appeal.
- Any doctrinal summary beyond the basic procedural posture (conviction followed by appeal) would require access to the unpublished opinion itself.

## Conclusion

State v. Baugh, 1978 WL 216550 (1978), concerns Ricky Baugh’s appeal from a conviction for conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery after he and three juveniles allegedly planned a café robbery, entered the café in furtherance of that plan, and were later stopped with weapons and a pillowcase found in the car; however, the appellate court’s holding and reasoning are not available in the publicly accessible materials describing the case.
