EILEEN T. GALLAGHER, J.:

      {¶1} Tracy Mays has filed a second application for reopening pursuant to App.R.

26(B). Mays is attempting to reopen the appellate judgment rendered in State v. Mays,

8th Dist. Cuyahoga No. 99150, 2013-Ohio-4031. That appeal affirmed his conviction

for the offense of domestic violence.

      {¶2} Mays is permitted to file only one application for reopening with regard to a

specific appeal. Mays has already filed an App.R. 26(B) application for reopening, with

regard to appeal No. 99150, on December 2, 2013. The initial application for reopening

was denied on February 28, 2014. See State v. Mays, 8th Dist. Cuyahoga No. 99150,

2014-Ohio-814. There exists no right to file a second or successive application for

reopening under App.R. 26(B). State v. Cooey, 99 Ohio St.3d 345, 2003-Ohio-3914, 792

N.E.2d 720; State v. Williams, 99 Ohio St.3d 179, 2003-Ohio-3079, 790 N.E.2d 299;

State v. Cheren, 73 Ohio St.3d 137, 1995-Ohio-28, 652 N.E.2d 707; State v. Peeples, 73

Ohio St.3d 149, 1995-Ohio-36, 652 N.E.2d 717.

      {¶3} Application denied.
