Oregon Supreme Court

State v. Davidson

March 31, 2022369 Or. 480

Summary

The Oregon Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals and remanded the case, holding that ORS 137.719(2) requires any departure sentence to conform to all felony sentencing‑guidelines rules, including the grid‑block starting point and the limits on duration and post‑prison supervision. Accordingly, the trial court erred by imposing a 180‑month term and lifetime supervision without adhering to those guidelines.
