in section 2929.12 of the Revised Code, finds that a prison term 630
is consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set 631
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code and finds that the 632
offender is not amenable to an available community control 633
sanction, the court shall impose a prison term upon the offender.634

section, if the court does not make a finding described in 636
division (B)(1)(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), or (i) of 637
this section and if the court, after considering the factors set 638

Code and that is specified as being subject to this division for 649
purposes of sentencing, the sentencing court shall comply with the 650

       (D)(1) Except as provided in division (E) or (F) of this 653
section, for a felony of the first or second degree, for a felony 654
drug offense that is a violation of any provision of Chapter 655
2925., 3719., or 4729. of the Revised Code for which a presumption 656
in favor of a prison term is specified as being applicable, and 657
for a violation of division (A)(4) or (B) of section 2907.05 of 658
the Revised Code for which a presumption in favor of a prison term 659
is specified as being applicable, it is presumed that a prison 660
term is necessary in order to comply with the purposes and 661
principles of sentencing under section 2929.11 of the Revised 662
Code. Division (D)(2) of this section does not apply to a 663
presumption established under this division for a violation of 664

that is a violation of any provision of Chapter 2925., 3719., or 673
4729. of the Revised Code for which a presumption in favor of a 674
prison term is specified as being applicable if it makes both of 675
the following findings:676

       (a) A community control sanction or a combination of 677
community control sanctions would adequately punish the offender 678
and protect the public from future crime, because the applicable 679
factors under section 2929.12 of the Revised Code indicating a 680
lesser likelihood of recidivism outweigh the applicable factors 681
under that section indicating a greater likelihood of recidivism.682

       (b) A community control sanction or a combination of 683
community control sanctions would not demean the seriousness of 684
the offense, because one or more factors under section 2929.12 of 685
the Revised Code that indicate that the offender's conduct was 686
less serious than conduct normally constituting the offense are 687
applicable, and they outweigh the applicable factors under that 688
section that indicate that the offender's conduct was more serious 689
than conduct normally constituting the offense.690

       (E)(1) Except as provided in division (F) of this section, 691
for any drug offense that is a violation of any provision of 692
Chapter 2925. of the Revised Code and that is a felony of the 693
third, fourth, or fifth degree, the applicability of a presumption 694
under division (D) of this section in favor of a prison term or of 695
division (B) or (C) of this section in determining whether to 696
impose a prison term for the offense shall be determined as 697
specified in section 2925.02, 2925.03, 2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.06, 698
2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, or 2925.37 of the 699
Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the violation.700

       (2) If an offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to 701
a felony violates the conditions of a community control sanction 702
imposed for the offense solely by reason of producing positive 703
results on a drug test, the court, as punishment for the violation 704
of the sanction, shall not order that the offender be imprisoned 705
unless the court determines on the record either of the following:706

       (a) The offender had been ordered as a sanction for the 707
felony to participate in a drug treatment program, in a drug 708
education program, or in narcotics anonymous or a similar program, 709
and the offender continued to use illegal drugs after a reasonable 710
period of participation in the program.711

       (b) The imprisonment of the offender for the violation is 712
consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set 713
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code.714

       (3) A court that sentences an offender for a drug abuse 715
offense that is a felony of the third, fourth, or fifth degree may 716
require that the offender be assessed by a properly credentialed 717
professional within a specified period of time. The court shall 718
require the professional to file a written assessment of the 719
offender with the court. If the offender is eligible for a 720
community control sanction and after considering the written 721
assessment, the court may impose a community control sanction that 722
includes treatment and recovery support services authorized by 723
section 3793.02 of the Revised Code. If the court imposes 724
treatment and recovery support services as a community control 725
sanction, the court shall direct the level and type of treatment 726
and recovery support services after considering the assessment and 727
recommendation of treatment and recovery support services 728
providers.729

       (F) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, the 730
court shall impose a prison term or terms under sections 2929.02 731
to 2929.06, section 2929.14, section 2929.142, or section 2971.03 732
of the Revised Code and except as specifically provided in section 733
2929.20 or 2967.191 of the Revised Code or when parole is 734
authorized for the offense under section 2967.13 of the Revised 735
Code shall not reduce the term or terms pursuant to section 736
2929.20, section 2967.193, or any other provision of Chapter 2967. 737
or Chapter 5120. of the Revised Code for any of the following 738

sentenced under section 2971.03 of the Revised Code;746

       (G) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, if 880
an offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree felony OVI 881
offense or for a third degree felony OVI offense, the court shall 882
impose upon the offender a mandatory term of local incarceration 883
or a mandatory prison term in accordance with the following:884

       (1) If the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree 885
felony OVI offense and if the offender has not been convicted of 886
and has not pleaded guilty to a specification of the type 887
described in section 2941.1413 of the Revised Code, the court may 888
impose upon the offender a mandatory term of local incarceration 889
of sixty days or one hundred twenty days as specified in division 890
(G)(1)(d) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code. The court shall 891
not reduce the term pursuant to section 2929.20, 2967.193, or any 892
other provision of the Revised Code. The court that imposes a 893
mandatory term of local incarceration under this division shall 894
specify whether the term is to be served in a jail, a 895
community-based correctional facility, a halfway house, or an 896
alternative residential facility, and the offender shall serve the 897
term in the type of facility specified by the court. A mandatory 898
term of local incarceration imposed under division (G)(1) of this 899
section is not subject to any other Revised Code provision that 900
pertains to a prison term except as provided in division (A)(1) of 901
this section.902

       (2) If the offender is being sentenced for a third degree 903
felony OVI offense, or if the offender is being sentenced for a 904
fourth degree felony OVI offense and the court does not impose a 905
mandatory term of local incarceration under division (G)(1) of 906
this section, the court shall impose upon the offender a mandatory 907
prison term of one, two, three, four, or five years if the 908
offender also is convicted of or also pleads guilty to a 909
specification of the type described in section 2941.1413 of the 910
Revised Code or shall impose upon the offender a mandatory prison 911
term of sixty days or one hundred twenty days as specified in 912
division (G)(1)(d) or (e) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code 913
if the offender has not been convicted of and has not pleaded 914
guilty to a specification of that type. The court shall not reduce 915
the term pursuant to section 2929.20, 2967.193, or any other 916
provision of the Revised Code. The offender shall serve the one-, 917
two-, three-, four-, or five-year mandatory prison term 918
consecutively to and prior to the prison term imposed for the 919
underlying offense and consecutively to any other mandatory prison 920
term imposed in relation to the offense. In no case shall an 921
offender who once has been sentenced to a mandatory term of local 922
incarceration pursuant to division (G)(1) of this section for a 923
fourth degree felony OVI offense be sentenced to another mandatory 924
term of local incarceration under that division for any violation 925
of division (A) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code. In 926
addition to the mandatory prison term described in division (G)(2) 927
of this section, the court may sentence the offender to a 928
community control sanction under section 2929.16 or 2929.17 of the 929
Revised Code, but the offender shall serve the prison term prior 930
to serving the community control sanction. The department of 931
rehabilitation and correction may place an offender sentenced to a 932
mandatory prison term under this division in an intensive program 933
prison established pursuant to section 5120.033 of the Revised 934
Code if the department gave the sentencing judge prior notice of 935
its intent to place the offender in an intensive program prison 936
established under that section and if the judge did not notify the 937
department that the judge disapproved the placement. Upon the 938
establishment of the initial intensive program prison pursuant to 939
section 5120.033 of the Revised Code that is privately operated 940
and managed by a contractor pursuant to a contract entered into 941
under section 9.06 of the Revised Code, both of the following 942
apply:943

       (a) The department of rehabilitation and correction shall 944
make a reasonable effort to ensure that a sufficient number of 945
offenders sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division 946
are placed in the privately operated and managed prison so that 947
the privately operated and managed prison has full occupancy.948

       (b) Unless the privately operated and managed prison has full 949
occupancy, the department of rehabilitation and correction shall 950
not place any offender sentenced to a mandatory prison term under 951
this division in any intensive program prison established pursuant 952
to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code other than the privately 953
operated and managed prison.954

       (H) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 955
offense or child-victim oriented offense that is a felony 956
committed on or after January 1, 1997, the judge shall require the 957
offender to submit to a DNA specimen collection procedure pursuant 958
to section 2901.07 of the Revised Code.959

       (I) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 960
offense or a child-victim oriented offense committed on or after 961
January 1, 1997, the judge shall include in the sentence a summary 962
of the offender's duties imposed under sections 2950.04, 2950.041, 963
2950.05, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code and the duration of the 964
duties. The judge shall inform the offender, at the time of 965
sentencing, of those duties and of their duration. If required 966
under division (A)(2) of section 2950.03 of the Revised Code, the 967
judge shall perform the duties specified in that section, or, if 968
required under division (A)(6) of section 2950.03 of the Revised 969
Code, the judge shall perform the duties specified in that 970
division.971

       (J)(1) Except as provided in division (J)(2) of this section, 972
when considering sentencing factors under this section in relation 973
to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an attempt 974
to commit an offense in violation of section 2923.02 of the 975
Revised Code, the sentencing court shall consider the factors 976
applicable to the felony category of the violation of section 977
2923.02 of the Revised Code instead of the factors applicable to 978
the felony category of the offense attempted.979

       (2) When considering sentencing factors under this section in 980
relation to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an 981
attempt to commit a drug abuse offense for which the penalty is 982
determined by the amount or number of unit doses of the controlled 983
substance involved in the drug abuse offense, the sentencing court 984
shall consider the factors applicable to the felony category that 985
the drug abuse offense attempted would be if that drug abuse 986
offense had been committed and had involved an amount or number of 987
unit doses of the controlled substance that is within the next 988
lower range of controlled substance amounts than was involved in 989
the attempt.990

       (K) As used in this section, "drug abuse offense" has the 991
same meaning as in section 2925.01 of the Revised Code.992

       (L) At the time of sentencing an offender for any sexually 993
oriented offense, if the offender is a tier III sex 994
offender/child-victim offender relative to that offense and the 995
offender does not serve a prison term or jail term, the court may 996
require that the offender be monitored by means of a global 997
positioning device. If the court requires such monitoring, the 998
cost of monitoring shall be borne by the offender. If the offender 999
is indigent, the cost of compliance shall be paid by the crime 1000
victims reparations fund.1001

       Sec. 2929.14.  (A) Except as provided in division (C), 1002
(D)(1), (D)(2), (D)(3), (D)(4), (D)(5), (D)(6), (D)(7), (D)(8), 1003
(D)(9), (G), (I), (J), or (L) of this section, in division (C) of 1004
section 2907.06 of the Revised Code, or in division (D)(6) of 1005
section 2919.25 of the Revised Code and except in relation to an 1006
offense for which a sentence of death or life imprisonment is to 1007
be imposed, if the court imposing a sentence upon an offender for 1008
a felony elects or is required to impose a prison term on the 1009
offender pursuant to this chapter, the court shall impose a 1010
definite prison term that shall be one of the following:1011

       (1) For a felony of the first degree, the prison term shall 1012
be three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten years.1013

       (2) For a felony of the second degree, the prison term shall 1014
be two, three, four, five, six, seven, or eight years.1015

       (3) For a felony of the third degree, the prison term shall 1016
be one, two, three, four, or five years.1017

(L) of this section, in section 2907.02, 2907.03, 2907.05, 1025
2907.06, or 2919.25 of the Revised Code, or in Chapter 2925. of 1026
the Revised Code, if the court imposing a sentence upon an 1027
offender for a felony elects or is required to impose a prison 1028
term on the offender, the court shall impose the shortest prison 1029
term authorized for the offense pursuant to division (A) of this 1030
section, unless one or more of the following applies:1031

       (1) The offender was serving a prison term at the time of the 1032
offense, or the offender previously had served a prison term.1033

       (2) The court finds on the record that the shortest prison 1034
term will demean the seriousness of the offender's conduct or will 1035
not adequately protect the public from future crime by the 1036
offender or others.1037

       (C) Except as provided in division (D)(7), (D)(8), (D)(9),1038
(G), or (L) of this section, in section 2907.03, 2907.06, or1039

the court may impose on an offender, in addition to the longest 1185
prison term authorized or required for the offense, an additional 1186
definite prison term of one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, 1187
eight, nine, or ten years if all of the following criteria are 1188
met:1189

       (i) The offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1190
specification of the type described in section 2941.149 of the 1191
Revised Code that the offender is a repeat violent offender.1192

       (ii) The offense of which the offender currently is convicted 1193
or to which the offender currently pleads guilty is aggravated 1194
murder and the court does not impose a sentence of death or life 1195
imprisonment without parole, murder, terrorism and the court does 1196
not impose a sentence of life imprisonment without parole, any 1197
felony of the first degree that is an offense of violence and the 1198
court does not impose a sentence of life imprisonment without 1199
parole, or any felony of the second degree that is an offense of 1200
violence and the trier of fact finds that the offense involved an 1201
attempt to cause or a threat to cause serious physical harm to a 1202
person or resulted in serious physical harm to a person.1203

       (iii) The court imposes the longest prison term for the 1204
offense that is not life imprisonment without parole.1205

       (iv) The court finds that the prison terms imposed pursuant 1206
to division (D)(2)(a)(iii) of this section and, if applicable, 1207
division (D)(1) or (3) of this section are inadequate to punish 1208
the offender and protect the public from future crime, because the 1209
applicable factors under section 2929.12 of the Revised Code 1210
indicating a greater likelihood of recidivism outweigh the 1211
applicable factors under that section indicating a lesser 1212
likelihood of recidivism.1213

       (v) The court finds that the prison terms imposed pursuant to 1214
division (D)(2)(a)(iii) of this section and, if applicable, 1215
division (D)(1) or (3) of this section are demeaning to the 1216
seriousness of the offense, because one or more of the factors 1217
under section 2929.12 of the Revised Code indicating that the 1218
offender's conduct is more serious than conduct normally 1219
constituting the offense are present, and they outweigh the 1220
applicable factors under that section indicating that the 1221
offender's conduct is less serious than conduct normally 1222
constituting the offense.1223

       (b) The court shall impose on an offender the longest prison 1224
term authorized or required for the offense and shall impose on 1225
the offender an additional definite prison term of one, two, 1226
three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten years if all of 1227
the following criteria are met:1228

       (i) The offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1229
specification of the type described in section 2941.149 of the 1230
Revised Code that the offender is a repeat violent offender.1231

including all offenses described in that division of which the 1235
offender is convicted or to which the offender pleads guilty in 1236
the current prosecution and all offenses described in that 1237
division of which the offender previously has been convicted or to 1238
which the offender previously pleaded guilty, whether prosecuted 1239
together or separately.1240

       (iii) The offense or offenses of which the offender currently 1241
is convicted or to which the offender currently pleads guilty is 1242
aggravated murder and the court does not impose a sentence of 1243
death or life imprisonment without parole, murder, terrorism and 1244
the court does not impose a sentence of life imprisonment without 1245
parole, any felony of the first degree that is an offense of 1246
violence and the court does not impose a sentence of life 1247
imprisonment without parole, or any felony of the second degree 1248
that is an offense of violence and the trier of fact finds that 1249
the offense involved an attempt to cause or a threat to cause 1250
serious physical harm to a person or resulted in serious physical 1251
harm to a person.1252

       (c) For purposes of division (D)(2)(b) of this section, two 1253
or more offenses committed at the same time or as part of the same 1254
act or event shall be considered one offense, and that one offense 1255
shall be the offense with the greatest penalty.1256

       (d) A sentence imposed under division (D)(2)(a) or (b) of 1257
this section shall not be reduced pursuant to section 2929.20 or 1258
section 2967.193, or any other provision of Chapter 2967. or 1259
Chapter 5120. of the Revised Code. The offender shall serve an 1260
additional prison term imposed under this section consecutively to 1261
and prior to the prison term imposed for the underlying offense.1262

       (e) When imposing a sentence pursuant to division (D)(2)(a) 1263
or (b) of this section, the court shall state its findings 1264
explaining the imposed sentence.1265

       (3)(a) Except when an offender commits a violation of section 1266
2903.01 or 2907.02 of the Revised Code and the penalty imposed for 1267
the violation is life imprisonment or commits a violation of 1268
section 2903.02 of the Revised Code, if the offender commits a 1269
violation of section 2925.03 or 2925.11 of the Revised Code and 1270
that section classifies the offender as a major drug offender and 1271
requires the imposition of a ten-year prison term on the offender, 1272
if the offender commits a felony violation of section 2925.02, 1273
2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.36, 3719.07, 3719.08, 3719.16, 3719.161, 1274
4729.37, or 4729.61, division (C) or (D) of section 3719.172, 1275
division (C) of section 4729.51, or division (J) of section 1276
4729.54 of the Revised Code that includes the sale, offer to sell, 1277
or possession of a schedule I or II controlled substance, with the 1278
exception of marihuana, and the court imposing sentence upon the 1279
offender finds that the offender is guilty of a specification of 1280
the type described in section 2941.1410 of the Revised Code 1281
charging that the offender is a major drug offender, if the court 1282
imposing sentence upon an offender for a felony finds that the 1283
offender is guilty of corrupt activity with the most serious 1284
offense in the pattern of corrupt activity being a felony of the 1285
first degree, or if the offender is guilty of an attempted 1286
violation of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code and, had the 1287
offender completed the violation of section 2907.02 of the Revised 1288
Code that was attempted, the offender would have been subject to a 1289
sentence of life imprisonment or life imprisonment without parole 1290
for the violation of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code, the 1291
court shall impose upon the offender for the felony violation a 1292
ten-year prison term that cannot be reduced pursuant to section 1293
2929.20 or Chapter 2967. or 5120. of the Revised Code.1294

       (b) The court imposing a prison term on an offender under 1295
division (D)(3)(a) of this section may impose an additional prison 1296
term of one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or 1297
ten years, if the court, with respect to the term imposed under 1298
division (D)(3)(a) of this section and, if applicable, divisions 1299
(D)(1) and (2) of this section, makes both of the findings set 1300
forth in divisions (D)(2)(a)(iv) and (v) of this section.1301

       (4) If the offender is being sentenced for a third or fourth 1302
degree felony OVI offense under division (G)(2) of section 2929.13 1303
of the Revised Code, the sentencing court shall impose upon the 1304
offender a mandatory prison term in accordance with that division. 1305
In addition to the mandatory prison term, if the offender is being 1306
sentenced for a fourth degree felony OVI offense, the court, 1307
notwithstanding division (A)(4) of this section, may sentence the 1308
offender to a definite prison term of not less than six months and 1309
not more than thirty months, and if the offender is being 1310
sentenced for a third degree felony OVI offense, the sentencing 1311
court may sentence the offender to an additional prison term of 1312
any duration specified in division (A)(3) of this section. In 1313
either case, the additional prison term imposed shall be reduced 1314
by the sixty or one hundred twenty days imposed upon the offender 1315
as the mandatory prison term. The total of the additional prison 1316
term imposed under division (D)(4) of this section plus the sixty 1317
or one hundred twenty days imposed as the mandatory prison term 1318
shall equal a definite term in the range of six months to thirty 1319
months for a fourth degree felony OVI offense and shall equal one 1320
of the authorized prison terms specified in division (A)(3) of 1321
this section for a third degree felony OVI offense. If the court 1322
imposes an additional prison term under division (D)(4) of this 1323
section, the offender shall serve the additional prison term after 1324

offense. In addition to the mandatory prison term or mandatory and 1326
additional prison term imposed as described in division (D)(4) of 1327
this section, the court also may sentence the offender to a 1328
community control sanction under section 2929.16 or 2929.17 of the 1329
Revised Code, but the offender shall serve all of the prison terms 1330
so imposed prior to serving the community control sanction.1331

        If the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree felony 1332
OVI offense under division (G)(1) of section 2929.13 of the 1333
Revised Code and the court imposes a mandatory term of local 1334
incarceration, the court may impose a prison term as described in 1335
division (A)(1) of that section.1336

specification of the type described in section 2941.1414 of the 1340
Revised Code that charges that the victim of the offense is a 1341

the court shall impose on the offender a prison term of five 1345

reduced pursuant to section 2929.20, section 2967.193, or any 1348
other provision of Chapter 2967. or Chapter 5120. of the Revised 1349
Code. A court shall not impose more than one prison term on an 1350
offender under division (D)(5) of this section for felonies 1351
committed as part of the same act.1352

        (6) If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1353
violation of division (A)(1) or (2) of section 2903.06 of the 1354
Revised Code and also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1355

Code, or three or more violations of any combination of those 1361
divisions and offenses, the court shall impose on the offender a 1362
prison term of three years. If a court imposes a prison term on an 1363
offender under division (D)(6) of this section, the prison term 1364
shall not be reduced pursuant to section 2929.20, section 1365
2967.193, or any other provision of Chapter 2967. or Chapter 5120. 1366
of the Revised Code. A court shall not impose more than one prison 1367

Revised Code and also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1398
specification of the type described in section 2941.1423 of the 1399
Revised Code that charges that the victim of the violation was a 1400
woman whom the offender knew was pregnant at the time of the 1401
violation, notwithstanding the range of prison terms prescribed in 1402
division (A) of this section for felonies of the same degree as 1403
the violation, the court shall impose on the offender a mandatory 1404
prison term that is either a definite prison term of six months or 1405
one of the prison terms prescribed in section 2929.14 of the 1406
Revised Code for felonies of the same degree as the violation.1407

       (9) If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1408
felony violation of section 2907.04, 2907.05, 2907.07, or 2919.22 1409
of the Revised Code and also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1410

previously or subsequently imposed upon the offender.1451

       (c) If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender 1452
pursuant to division (D)(1)(f) of this section, the offender shall 1453

other residential detention facility violates section 2917.02, 1476
2917.03, 2921.34, or 2921.35 of the Revised Code, if an offender 1477

offender who is an inmate in a jail, prison, or other residential 1480
detention facility or is under detention at a detention facility 1481
commits another felony while the offender is an escapee in 1482
violation of section 2921.34 of the Revised Code, any prison term 1483

subsequently imposed upon the offender.1496

       (4) If multiple prison terms are imposed on an offender for 1497
convictions of multiple offenses, the court may require the 1498
offender to serve the prison terms consecutively if the court 1499
finds that the consecutive service is necessary to protect the 1500
public from future crime or to punish the offender and that 1501
consecutive sentences are not disproportionate to the seriousness 1502
of the offender's conduct and to the danger the offender poses to 1503
the public, and if the court also finds any of the following:1504

       (a) The offender committed one or more of the multiple 1505
offenses while the offender was awaiting trial or sentencing, was 1506
under a sanction imposed pursuant to section 2929.16, 2929.17, or 1507
2929.18 of the Revised Code, or was under post-release control for 1508
a prior offense.1509

       (b) At least two of the multiple offenses were committed as 1510
part of one or more courses of conduct, and the harm caused by two 1511
or more of the multiple offenses so committed was so great or 1512
unusual that no single prison term for any of the offenses 1513
committed as part of any of the courses of conduct adequately 1514
reflects the seriousness of the offender's conduct.1515

       (c) The offender's history of criminal conduct demonstrates 1516
that consecutive sentences are necessary to protect the public 1517
from future crime by the offender.1518

       (5) If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender 1519
pursuant to division (D)(5) or (6) of this section, the offender 1520
shall serve the mandatory prison term consecutively to and prior 1521
to any prison term imposed for the underlying violation of 1522
division (A)(1) or (2) of section 2903.06 of the Revised Code 1523
pursuant to division (A) of this section or section 2929.142 of 1524
the Revised Code. If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an 1525
offender pursuant to division (D)(5) of this section, and if a 1526
mandatory prison term also is imposed upon the offender pursuant 1527
to division (D)(6) of this section in relation to the same 1528
violation, the offender shall serve the mandatory prison term 1529
imposed pursuant to division (D)(5) of this section consecutively 1530
to and prior to the mandatory prison term imposed pursuant to 1531
division (D)(6) of this section and consecutively to and prior to 1532
any prison term imposed for the underlying violation of division 1533
(A)(1) or (2) of section 2903.06 of the Revised Code pursuant to 1534
division (A) of this section or section 2929.142 of the Revised 1535
Code.1536

       (6) When consecutive prison terms are imposed pursuant to 1537
division (E)(1), (2), (3), (4), or (5) or division (J)(1) or (2) 1538
of this section, the term to be served is the aggregate of all of 1539
the terms so imposed.1540

       (F)(1) If a court imposes a prison term for a felony of the 1541
first degree, for a felony of the second degree, for a felony sex 1542
offense, or for a felony of the third degree that is not a felony 1543
sex offense and in the commission of which the offender caused or 1544
threatened to cause physical harm to a person, it shall include in 1545
the sentence a requirement that the offender be subject to a 1546
period of post-release control after the offender's release from 1547
imprisonment, in accordance with that division. If a court imposes 1548
a sentence including a prison term of a type described in this 1549
division on or after July 11, 2006, the failure of a court to 1550
include a post-release control requirement in the sentence 1551
pursuant to this division does not negate, limit, or otherwise 1552
affect the mandatory period of post-release control that is 1553
required for the offender under division (B) of section 2967.28 of 1554
the Revised Code. Section 2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, 1555
prior to July 11, 2006, a court imposed a sentence including a 1556
prison term of a type described in this division and failed to 1557
include in the sentence pursuant to this division a statement 1558
regarding post-release control.1559

       (2) If a court imposes a prison term for a felony of the 1560
third, fourth, or fifth degree that is not subject to division 1561
(F)(1) of this section, it shall include in the sentence a 1562

nature be clearly inapplicable. The offender shall pay all costs 1670
associated with a sanction imposed under this division, including 1671
the cost of the use of the monitoring device.1672

       (K) At the time of sentencing, the court may recommend the 1673

section 5120.031 of the Revised Code or for placement in an 1675
intensive program prison under section 5120.032 of the Revised 1676

eligible for the placement.1684

       If the court disapproves placement of the offender in a 1685

to the court indicating why the offender was not placed in the 1699
recommended program or prison.1700

       If the court does not make a recommendation under this 1701
division with respect to an offender and if the department 1702
determines as specified in section 5120.031 or 5120.032 of the 1703
Revised Code, whichever is applicable, that the offender is 1704
eligible for placement in a program or prison of that nature, the 1705
department shall screen the offender and determine if there is an 1706
available program of shock incarceration or an intensive program 1707
prison for which the offender is suited. If there is an available 1708
program of shock incarceration or an intensive program prison for 1709
which the offender is suited, the department shall notify the 1710
court of the proposed placement of the offender as specified in 1711
section 5120.031 or 5120.032 of the Revised Code and shall include 1712
with the notice a brief description of the placement. The court 1713

aggravated vehicular homicide in violation of division (A)(1) of 1717
section 2903.06 of the Revised Code and division (B)(2)(c) of that 1718
section applies, the person shall be sentenced pursuant to section 1719
2929.142 of the Revised Code.1720

       Sec. 2929.22.  (A) Unless a mandatory jail term is required 1721
to be imposed by section 2929.23 or 2929.24, division (G) of 1722
section 1547.99, division (B) of section 4510.14, division (G) of 1723
section 4511.19 of the Revised Code, or any other provision of the 1724
Revised Code, a court that imposes a sentence under this chapter 1725
upon an offender for a misdemeanor or minor misdemeanor has 1726
discretion to determine the most effective way to achieve the 1727
purposes and principles of sentencing set forth in section 2929.21 1728
of the Revised Code.1729

       Unless a specific sanction is required to be imposed or is 1730
precluded from being imposed by the section setting forth an 1731
offense or the penalty for an offense or by any provision of 1732
sections 2929.23 to 2929.28 of the Revised Code, a court that 1733
imposes a sentence upon an offender for a misdemeanor may impose 1734
on the offender any sanction or combination of sanctions under 1735
sections 2929.24 to 2929.28 of the Revised Code. The court shall 1736
not impose a sentence that imposes an unnecessary burden on local 1737
government resources.1738

       (B)(1) In determining the appropriate sentence for a 1739
misdemeanor, the court shall consider all of the following 1740
factors:1741

       (a) The nature and circumstances of the offense or offenses;1742

       (b) Whether the circumstances regarding the offender and the 1743
offense or offenses indicate that the offender has a history of 1744
persistent criminal activity and that the offender's character and 1745
condition reveal a substantial risk that the offender will commit 1746
another offense;1747

       (c) Whether the circumstances regarding the offender and the 1748
offense or offenses indicate that the offender's history, 1749
character, and condition reveal a substantial risk that the 1750
offender will be a danger to others and that the offender's 1751
conduct has been characterized by a pattern of repetitive, 1752
compulsive, or aggressive behavior with heedless indifference to 1753
the consequences;1754

       (d) Whether the victim's youth, age, disability, or other 1755
factor made the victim particularly vulnerable to the offense or 1756
made the impact of the offense more serious;1757

       (e) Whether the offender is likely to commit future crimes in 1758
general, in addition to the circumstances described in divisions 1759
(B)(1)(b) and (c) of this section.1760

       (2) In determining the appropriate sentence for a 1761
misdemeanor, in addition to complying with division (B)(1) of this 1762
section, the court may consider any other factors that are 1763
relevant to achieving the purposes and principles of sentencing 1764
set forth in section 2929.21 of the Revised Code.1765

       (C) Before imposing a jail term as a sentence for a 1766
misdemeanor, a court shall consider the appropriateness of 1767
imposing a community control sanction or a combination of 1768
community control sanctions under sections 2929.25, 2929.26, 1769
2929.27, and 2929.28 of the Revised Code. A court may impose the 1770
longest jail term authorized under section 2929.24 of the Revised 1771
Code only upon offenders who commit the worst forms of the offense 1772
or upon offenders whose conduct and response to prior sanctions 1773
for prior offenses demonstrate that the imposition of the longest 1774
jail term is necessary to deter the offender from committing a 1775
future crime.1776

       (D)(1) A sentencing court shall consider any relevant oral or 1777
written statement made by the victim, the defendant, the defense 1778
attorney, or the prosecuting authority regarding sentencing for a 1779
misdemeanor. This division does not create any rights to notice 1780
other than those rights authorized by Chapter 2930. of the Revised 1781
Code.1782

       (2) At the time of sentencing for a misdemeanor or as soon as 1783
possible after sentencing, the court shall notify the victim of 1784
the offense of the victim's right to file an application for an 1785
award of reparations pursuant to sections 2743.51 to 2743.72 of 1786
the Revised Code.1787

       Sec. 2929.24.  (A) Except as provided in section 2929.22 or 1788
2929.23 of the Revised Code or division (E) or, (F), (G), or (H)1789
of this section and unless another term is required or authorized 1790
pursuant to law, if the sentencing court imposing a sentence upon 1791
an offender for a misdemeanor elects or is required to impose a 1792
jail term on the offender pursuant to this chapter, the court 1793
shall impose a definite jail term that shall be one of the 1794
following:1795

       (1) For a misdemeanor of the first degree, not more than one 1796
hundred eighty days;1797

       (2) For a misdemeanor of the second degree, not more than 1798
ninety days;1799

       (3) For a misdemeanor of the third degree, not more than 1800
sixty days;1801

       (4) For a misdemeanor of the fourth degree, not more than 1802
thirty days.1803

       (B)(1) A court that sentences an offender to a jail term 1804
under this section may permit the offender to serve the sentence 1805
in intermittent confinement or may authorize a limited release of 1806
the offender as provided in division (B) of section 2929.26 of the 1807
Revised Code. The court retains jurisdiction over every offender 1808
sentenced to jail to modify the jail sentence imposed at any time, 1809
but the court shall not reduce any mandatory jail term.1810

       (2)(a) If a prosecutor, as defined in section 2935.01 of the 1811
Revised Code, has filed a notice with the court that the 1812
prosecutor wants to be notified about a particular case and if the 1813
court is considering modifying the jail sentence of the offender 1814
in that case, the court shall notify the prosecutor that the court 1815
is considering modifying the jail sentence of the offender in that 1816
case. The prosecutor may request a hearing regarding the court's 1817
consideration of modifying the jail sentence of the offender in 1818
that case, and, if the prosecutor requests a hearing, the court 1819
shall notify the eligible offender of the hearing.1820

        (b) If the prosecutor requests a hearing regarding the 1821
court's consideration of modifying the jail sentence of the 1822
offender in that case, the court shall hold the hearing before 1823
considering whether or not to release the offender from the 1824
offender's jail sentence.1825

       (C) If a court sentences an offender to a jail term under 1826
this section and the court assigns the offender to a county jail 1827
that has established a county jail industry program pursuant to 1828
section 5147.30 of the Revised Code, the court shall specify, as 1829
part of the sentence, whether the offender may be considered for 1830
participation in the program. During the offender's term in the 1831
county jail, the court retains jurisdiction to modify its 1832
specification regarding the offender's participation in the county 1833
jail industry program.1834

       (D) If a person is sentenced to a jail term pursuant to this 1835
section, the court may impose as part of the sentence pursuant to 1836
section 2929.28 of the Revised Code a reimbursement sanction, and, 1837
if the local detention facility in which the term is to be served 1838
is covered by a policy adopted pursuant to section 307.93, 341.14, 1839
341.19, 341.21, 341.23, 753.02, 753.04, 753.16, 2301.56, or 1840
2947.19 of the Revised Code and section 2929.37 of the Revised 1841
Code, both of the following apply:1842

       (1) The court shall specify both of the following as part of 1843
the sentence:1844

       (a) If the person is presented with an itemized bill pursuant 1845
to section 2929.37 of the Revised Code for payment of the costs of 1846
confinement, the person is required to pay the bill in accordance 1847
with that section.1848

       (b) If the person does not dispute the bill described in 1849
division (D)(1)(a) of this section and does not pay the bill by 1850
the times specified in section 2929.37 of the Revised Code, the 1851
clerk of the court may issue a certificate of judgment against the 1852
person as described in that section.1853

       (2) The sentence automatically includes any certificate of 1854
judgment issued as described in division (D)(1)(b) of this 1855
section.1856

also is convicted of or also pleads guilty to a specification of 1859
the type described in section 2941.1416 of the Revised Code and if 1860
the court imposes a jail term on the offender for the underlying 1861
offense, the court shall impose upon the offender an additional 1862
definite jail term of not more than six months. The additional 1863
jail term shall not be reduced pursuant to any provision of the 1864
Revised Code. The offender shall serve the additional jail term 1865
consecutively to and prior to the jail term imposed for the 1866
underlying offense and consecutively to any other mandatory term 1867
imposed in relation to the offense.1868

       (F)(1) If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1869
misdemeanor violation of section 2907.23, 2907.24, 2907.241, or 1870
2907.25 of the Revised Code and to a specification of the type 1871
described in section 2941.1421 of the Revised Code and if the 1872
court imposes a jail term on the offender for the misdemeanor 1873
violation, the court may impose upon the offender an additional 1874
definite jail term as follows:1875

       (a) Subject to division (F)(1)(b) of this section, an 1876
additional definite jail term of not more than sixty days;1877

        (2) In lieu of imposing an additional definite jail term 1886
under division (F)(1) of this section, the court may directly 1887
impose on the offender a sanction that requires the offender to 1888
wear a real-time processing, continual tracking electronic 1889
monitoring device during the period of time specified by the 1890
court. The period of time specified by the court shall equal the 1891
duration of an additional jail term that the court could have 1892
imposed upon the offender under division (F)(1) of this section. A 1893
sanction imposed under this division shall commence on the date 1894

sanction imposed for the violation under section 2929.26 of the 1899
Revised Code. A sanction imposed under this division shall be 1900
considered to be a community control sanction for purposes of 1901
section 2929.25 of the Revised Code, and all provisions of the 1902
Revised Code that pertain to community control sanctions shall 1903
apply to a sanction imposed under this division, except to the 1904
extent that they would by their nature be clearly inapplicable. 1905
The offender shall pay all costs associated with a sanction 1906
imposed under this division, including the cost of the use of the 1907
monitoring device.1908

       (G) If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a 1909
