law enforcement officer of the fact that the tenant or person has777
or presently is engaged in a violation as described in this778
division and it occurred in, is occurring in, or otherwise was or779
is connected with the tenant's premises.780

division precludes the commencement of an action under division 804
(A)(12) of this section when the additional circumstances805
described in that division apply.806

       (11) Against manufactured home park residents who have807
committed two material violations of the rules of the manufactured808
home park, of the public health council, or of applicable state809
and local health and safety codes and who have been notified of810
the violations in compliance with section 3733.13 of the Revised811
Code;812

that is parked in the manufactured home park, has been left818
unoccupied for that thirty-day period, without notice to the park819

the offense, because one or more factors under section 2929.12 of2805
the Revised Code that indicate that the offender's conduct was2806
less serious than conduct normally constituting the offense are2807
applicable, and they outweigh the applicable factors under that2808
section that indicate that the offender's conduct was more serious2809
than conduct normally constituting the offense.2810

       (E)(1) Except as provided in division (F) of this section,2811
for any drug offense that is a violation of any provision of2812
Chapter 2925. of the Revised Code and that is a felony of the2813
third, fourth, or fifth degree, the applicability of a presumption2814
under division (D) of this section in favor of a prison term or of2815
division (B) or (C) of this section in determining whether to2816
impose a prison term for the offense shall be determined as2817
specified in section 2925.02, 2925.03, 2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.06,2818
2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, or 2925.37 of the2819
Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the violation.2820

       (2) If an offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to2821
a felony violates the conditions of a community control sanction2822
imposed for the offense solely by reason of producing positive2823
results on a drug test, the court, as punishment for the violation2824
of the sanction, shall not order that the offender be imprisoned2825
unless the court determines on the record either of the following:2826

       (a) The offender had been ordered as a sanction for the2827
felony to participate in a drug treatment program, in a drug2828
education program, or in narcotics anonymous or a similar program,2829
and the offender continued to use illegal drugs after a reasonable2830
period of participation in the program.2831

       (b) The imprisonment of the offender for the violation is2832
consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set2833
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code.2834

       (F) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, the 2835
court shall impose a prison term or terms under sections 2929.02 2836

Code and except as specifically provided in section 2929.20 or 2838

offense under section 2967.13 of the Revised Code shall not reduce 2840

impose upon the offender a mandatory term of local incarceration2903
or a mandatory prison term in accordance with the following:2904

       (1) If the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree2905

section. The court shall not reduce the term pursuant to section2931

no case shall an offender who once has been sentenced to a2933
mandatory term of local incarceration pursuant to division (G)(1)2934
of this section for a fourth degree felony OMVI offense be2935
sentenced to another mandatory term of local incarceration under2936
that division for any violation of division (A) of section 4511.192937
of the Revised Code. The court shall not sentence the offender to2938

sentencing judge prior notice of its intent to place the offender2944
in an intensive program prison established under that section and2945

disapproved the placement. Upon the establishment of the initial2947
intensive program prison pursuant to section 5120.033 of the2948
Revised Code that is privately operated and managed by a2949
contractor pursuant to a contract entered into under section 9.062950
of the Revised Code, both of the following apply:2951

       (a) The department of rehabilitation and correction shall2952
make a reasonable effort to ensure that a sufficient number of2953
offenders sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division2954
are placed in the privately operated and managed prison so that2955
the privately operated and managed prison has full occupancy.2956

       (b) Unless the privately operated and managed prison has full2957
occupancy, the department of rehabilitation and correction shall 2958
not place any offender sentenced to a mandatory prison term under 2959
this division in any intensive program prison established pursuant2960
to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code other than the privately 2961
operated and managed prison.2962

       (H) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 2963
offense committed on or after January 1, 1997, the judge shall2964

procedure pursuant to section 2901.07 of the Revised Code if2966
either of the following applies:2967

       (1) The offense was a sexually violent offense, and the2968
offender also was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually2969
violent predator specification that was included in the2970
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the2971
sexually violent offense.2972

       (2) The judge imposing sentence for the sexually oriented2973
offense determines pursuant to division (B) of section 2950.09 of2974
the Revised Code that the offender is a sexual predator.2975

       (I) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 2976
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 2977
offense or for a child-victim oriented offense committed on or 2978
after January 1, 1997, the judge shall include in the sentence a 2979
summary of the offender's duty to register pursuant to section2980
duties imposed under sections 2950.04 of the Revised Code, the2981
offender's duty to provide notice of a change in residence address2982
and register the new residence address pursuant to section, 2983
2950.041, 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the offender's duty to 2984
periodically verify the offender's current residence address 2985
pursuant to section, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code, and the2986
duration of the duties. The judge shall inform the offender, at 2987
the time of sentencing, of those duties and of their duration and, 2988
if required under division (A)(2) of section 2950.03 of the 2989
Revised Code, shall perform the duties specified in that section.2990

       (J)(1) Except as provided in division (J)(2) of this section, 2991
when considering sentencing factors under this section in relation 2992
to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an attempt 2993
to commit an offense in violation of section 2923.02 of the 2994
Revised Code, the sentencing court shall consider the factors2995
applicable to the felony category of the violation of section2996
2923.02 of the Revised Code instead of the factors applicable to2997
the felony category of the offense attempted.2998

       (2) When considering sentencing factors under this section in 2999
relation to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an 3000
attempt to commit a drug abuse offense for which the penalty is3001
determined by the amount or number of unit doses of the controlled3002
substance involved in the drug abuse offense, the sentencing court3003
shall consider the factors applicable to the felony category that3004
the drug abuse offense attempted would be if that drug abuse3005
offense had been committed and had involved an amount or number of3006
unit doses of the controlled substance that is within the next3007
lower range of controlled substance amounts than was involved in3008
the attempt.3009

       (K) As used in this section, "drug abuse offense" has the3010
same meaning as in section 2925.01 of the Revised Code.3011

       Sec. 2929.19.  (A)(1) The court shall hold a sentencing3012
hearing before imposing a sentence under this chapter upon an3013
offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a felony and3014
before resentencing an offender who was convicted of or pleaded3015
guilty to a felony and whose case was remanded pursuant to section3016
2953.07 or 2953.08 of the Revised Code. At the hearing, the3017
offender, the prosecuting attorney, the victim or the victim's3018
representative in accordance with section 2930.14 of the Revised3019
Code, and, with the approval of the court, any other person may3020
present information relevant to the imposition of sentence in the3021
case. The court shall inform the offender of the verdict of the3022
jury or finding of the court and ask the offender whether the3023
offender has anything to say as to why sentence should not be3024
imposed upon the offender.3025

       (2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, before3026
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a3027
sexually oriented offense that was committed on or after January3028
1, 1997, that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 3029
offense, and that is not a sexually violent offense, and before3030
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a3031
sexually violent offense committed on or after January 1, 1997,3032
and who was not charged with a sexually violent predator3033
specification in the indictment, count in the indictment, or3034

registration-exempt sexually oriented offense and who was 3038
acquitted of a sexually violent predator specification included in 3039

the sexually oriented offense, the court shall conduct a hearing 3041
in accordance with division (B) of section 2950.09 of the Revised 3042
Code to determine whether the offender is a sexual predator. The 3043
court shall not conduct a hearing under that division if the 3044
offender is being sentenced for a sexually violent offense and, if3045
a sexually violent predator specification was included in the3046
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the3047
sexually violent offense, and if the offender was convicted of or 3048
pleaded guilty to that sexually violent predator specification. 3049
Before imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for 3050
a sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 3051
sexually oriented offense, the court also shall comply with 3052
division (E) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code.3053

       Sec. 2950.02.  (A) The general assembly hereby determines and 4030
declares that it recognizes and finds all of the following:4031

       (1) If the public is provided adequate notice and information 4032
about sexual predators, habitual sex offenders, and certain other4033
offenders and delinquent children who commit sexually oriented 4034
offenses that are not registration-exempt sexually oriented 4035
offenses or who commit child-victim oriented offenses, members of 4036
the public and communities can develop constructive plans to 4037
prepare themselves and their children for the sexual predator's, 4038
habitual sex offender's, or other offender's or delinquent child's4039
release from imprisonment, a prison term, or other confinement or 4040
detention. This allows members of the public and communities to 4041
meet with members of law enforcement agencies to prepare and 4042
obtain information about the rights and responsibilities of the 4043
public and the communities and to provide education and counseling 4044
to their children.4045

       (2) Sexual predators and habitual sexSex offenders and 4046
offenders who commit child-victim oriented offenses pose a high4047
risk of engaging in further offensessexually abusive behavior4048
even after being released from imprisonment, a prison term, or 4049
other confinement or detention, and that protection of members of 4050
the public from sexual predators and habitual sex offenders and 4051
offenders who commit child-victim oriented offenses is a paramount 4052
governmental interest.4053

       (3) The penal, juvenile, and mental health components of the4054
justice system of this state are largely hidden from public view,4055
and a lack of information from any component may result in the4056
failure of the system to satisfy this paramount governmental4057
interest of public safety described in division (A)(2) of this4058
section.4059

       (4) Overly restrictive confidentiality and liability laws4060
governing the release of information about sexual predators and4061
habitual sex offenders and offenders who commit child-victim 4062
oriented offenses have reduced the willingness to release4063
information that could be appropriately released under the public4064
disclosure laws and have increased risks of public safety.4065

       (5) A person who is found to be a sexual predator or a4066
habitual sex offender or to have committed a child-victim oriented 4067
offense has a reduced expectation of privacy because of the 4068
public's interest in public safety and in the effective operation 4069
of government.4070

       (6) The release of information about sexual predators and4071
habitual sex offenders and offenders who commit child-victim 4072
oriented offenses to public agencies and the general public will 4073
further the governmental interests of public safety and public 4074
scrutiny of the criminal, juvenile, and mental health systems as4075
long as the information released is rationally related to the 4076
furtherance of those goals.4077

       (B) The general assembly hereby declares that, in providing4078
in this chapter for registration regarding sexual predators,4079
habitual sex offenders, and offenders and certain delinquent4080
children who have committed sexually oriented offenses that are 4081
not registration-exempt sexually oriented offenses or who have 4082
committed child-victim oriented offenses and for community4083
notification regarding sexual predators and, child-victim 4084
predators, habitual sex offenders, and habitual child-victim 4085
offenders who are about to be or have been released from4086
imprisonment, a prison term, or other confinement or detention and4087
who will live in or near a particular neighborhood or who4088
otherwise will live in or near a particular neighborhood, it is4089
the general assembly's intent to protect the safety and general4090
welfare of the people of this state. The general assembly further4091
declares that it is the policy of this state to require the4092
exchange in accordance with this chapter of relevant information4093
about sexual predators and habitual sex offenders and offenders 4094
who commit child-victim oriented offenses among public agencies 4095
and officials and to authorize the release in accordance with this 4096
chapter of necessary and relevant information about sexual 4097
predators and habitual sex offenders and offenders who commit 4098
child-victim oriented offenses to members of the general public as 4099
a means of assuring public protection and that the exchange or 4100
release of that information is not punitive.4101

       Sec. 2950.021. (A) If an offender is convicted of or pleads 4102
guilty to, or a child is adjudicated a delinquent child for 4103
committing, any presumptive registration-exempt sexually oriented 4104
offense, the court that is imposing sentence on the offender for 4105
that offense or the juvenile court that is making the disposition 4106
of the delinquent child for that offense may determine, prior to 4107
imposing the sentence or making the disposition, that the offender 4108
should be subjected to registration under section 2950.04 of the 4109

oriented offense other than a presumptive registration-exempt 4120
sexually oriented offense. The court may make a determination as 4121
described in this division without a hearing but may conduct a 4122
hearing on the matter. In making a determination under this 4123
division, the court shall consider all relevant factors, 4124
including, but not limited to, public safety, the interests of 4125
justice, and the determinations, findings, and declarations of the 4126
general assembly regarding sex offenders and child-victim 4127
offenders that are set forth in section 2950.02 of the Revised 4128
Code.4129

who are adjudicated delinquent children for committing a sexually 4143
oriented offense other than a presumptive registration-exempt 4144
sexually oriented offense, all of the following apply:4145

        (1) The court shall issue an order that contains its 4146
determination and that removes the presumptive exemption from 4147
registration for the sexually oriented offense, shall include the 4148
order in the offender's sentence or in the delinquent child's 4149
dispositional order, and shall enter the order in the record in 4150
the case.4151

        (2) Regarding an offender, the presumptive exemption from 4152
registration is terminated, and the offender is subject to 4153
registration under section 2950.04 of the Revised Code and all 4154

Revised Code and all other duties and responsibilities generally 4164
imposed under this chapter upon persons who are adjudicated 4165
delinquent children for committing a sexually oriented offense 4166
other than a presumptive registration-exempt sexually oriented 4167
offense, and the juvenile court shall proceed as required and may 4168
proceed as authorized under section 2152.82, 2152.83, 2152.84, or 4169
2152.85 of the Revised Code regarding the child in the same manner 4170
as for persons who are adjudicated delinquent children for 4171
committing a sexually oriented offense other than a presumptive 4172
registration-exempt sexually oriented offense. 4173

       Sec. 2950.03. (A) Each person who has been convicted of, is4174

date of this amendment, the child-victim oriented offense was a 4232
sexually oriented offense and the offender was sentenced as 4233
described in this division for the child-victim oriented offense 4234
when it was designated a sexually oriented offense. If a person 4235

offense on or after January 1, 1997, or who is sentenced for the 4249
child-victim oriented offense on or after the effective date of 4250

offender of any right to notice under this section. If an offender4279
described in this division does not receive notice under this4280
section, the offender is not relieved of the duty to register, the4281

or division (E) of section 2152.85 of the Revised Code, whichever 4300

and 2950.06 of the Revised Code imposed as a result of the 4309

effective date of this amendment an aggravated sexually oriented6526
offense, the determination under this division does not affect any6527
duties imposed upon the offender under this chapter as a result of6528
that conviction of or plea of guilty to the aggravated sexually6529
oriented offense. If the court so terminates the offender's prison 6530
term, the court shall notify the bureau of criminal identification 6531
and investigation and the parole board of the determination that 6532
the offender no longer is a sexual predator. Upon receipt of the 6533
notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff with 6534
whom the offender most recently registered under section 2950.04 6535
or 2950.05 of the Revised Code that the offender no longer is a 6536
sexual predator. If an offender who has been convicted of or 6537
pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense is classified as a 6538
sexual predator pursuant to division (A) of this section is6539
released from prison pursuant to a pardon or commutationor has 6540
been adjudicated a sexual predator relative to the offense as 6541
described in division (B) or (C) of this section, subject to 6542
division (F) of this section, the classification or adjudication6543
of the offender as a sexual predator shall remain in effect after 6544
the offender's release, and the offender may file one or more 6545
petitions in accordance with the procedures and time limitations 6546
contained in division (D)(1) of this section for a determination 6547
that the offender no longer is a sexual predatoris permanent and 6548
continues in effect until the offender's death and in no case 6549
shall the classification or adjudication be removed or terminated.6550

       (E)(1) If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to6551
committing, on or after January 1, 1997, a sexually oriented6552
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 6553
offense, the judge who is to impose sentence on the offender shall6554
determine, prior to sentencing, whether the offender previously6555
has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a6556
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a 6557
child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual sex offender. The 6558
judge who is to impose or has imposed an order of disposition upon 6559
a child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing on or 6560
after January 1, 2002, a sexually oriented offense that is not a 6561
registration-exempt sexually oriented offense shall determine, 6562
prior to entering the order classifying the delinquent child a 6563
juvenile sex offender registrant, whether the delinquent child 6564
previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or 6565
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented 6566
offense or a child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual sex 6567
offender, if either of the following applies:6568

       (a) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A)6569
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a6570
juvenile sex offender registrant;6571

       (b) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code6572
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under6573
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the6574
judge determines at that hearing that the child will be classified6575
a juvenile sex offender registrant.6576

       (2) If, under division (E)(1) of this section, the judge6577
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has6578
not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a6579
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a 6580
child-victim oriented offense or that the offender otherwise does 6581
not satisfy the criteria for being a habitual sex offender, the6582
judge shall specify in the offender's sentence or in the order 6583
classifying the delinquent child a juvenile sex offender 6584
registrant that the judge has determined that the offender or 6585
delinquent child is not a habitual sex offender. If6586

       If, under division (E)(1) of this section, the judge 6587
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has 6588
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a 6589
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a 6590
child-victim oriented offense and that the offender satisfies all6591
other criteria for being a habitual sex offender, the offender or 6592
delinquent child is a habitual sex offender or habitual 6593
child-victim offender and the court shall determine whether to 6594
impose a requirement that the offender or delinquent child be 6595
subject to the community notification provisions contained in 6596
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code. In making the 6597
determination regarding the possible imposition of the community 6598
notification requirement, if at least two of the sexually oriented 6599
offenses or child-victim oriented offenses that are the basis of 6600
the habitual sex offender or habitual child-victim offender 6601
determination were committed against a victim who was under 6602
eighteen years of age, it is presumed that subjecting the offender 6603
or delinquent child to the community notification provisions is 6604
necessary in order to comply with the determinations, findings, 6605
and declarations of the general assembly regarding sex offenders 6606
and child-victim offenders that are set forth in section 2950.02 6607
of the Revised Code. When a judge determines as described in this 6608
division that an offender or delinquent child is a habitual sex 6609
offender or a habitual child-victim offender, the judge shall6610
specify in the offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction6611
that contains the sentence or in the order classifying the6612
delinquent child a juvenile sex offender registrant that the judge6613
has determined that the offender or delinquent child is a habitual6614
sex offender and may impose a requirement in that sentence and6615
judgment of conviction or in that order that the offender or6616
delinquent child be subject to the community notification6617
provisions regarding the offender's or delinquent child's place of6618
residence that are contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of6619
the Revised Code. Unless the habitual sex offender also has been6620
adjudicated as being a sexual predator relative to the sexually6621
oriented offense in question or the habitual sex offender was6622
convicted of or pleaded guilty to an aggravated sexually oriented6623
offense that was committed on or after the effective date of this6624
amendment, the offender or delinquent child shall be subject to6625
those community notification provisions only if the court imposes6626
the requirement described in this division in the offender's6627
sentence and the judgment of conviction or in the order6628
classifying the delinquent child a juvenile sex offender6629
registrant. If the court determines pursuant to this division or 6630
division (C)(2) of this section that an offender is a habitual sex 6631
offender, the determination is permanent and continues in effect 6632
until the offender's death, and in no case shall the determination 6633
be removed or terminated.6634

       If a court in another state, a federal court, military court, 6635
or Indian tribal court, or a court in any nation other than the 6636
United States determines a person to be a habitual sex offender in 6637
that jurisdiction, the person is considered to be determined to be 6638
a habitual sex offender in this state. If the court in the other 6639
state, the federal court, military court, or Indian tribal court, 6640
or the court in the nation other than the United States subjects 6641
the habitual sex offender to community notification regarding the 6642
person's place of residence, the person, as much as is 6643
practicable, is subject to the community notification provisions 6644
regarding the person's place of residence that are contained in 6645
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code, unless the court 6646
that so subjected the person to community notification determines 6647
that the person no longer is subject to community notification.6648

       (F)(1) An offender or delinquent child classified as a sexual 6649
predator may petition the court of common pleas or, for a6650
delinquent child, the juvenile court of the county in which the6651
offender or delinquent child resides or temporarily is domiciled6652
to enter a determination that the offender or delinquent child is6653
not an adjudicated sexual predator in this state for purposes of6654
the sex offender registration and other requirements of this 6655
chapter or the community notification provisions contained in 6656
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code if all of the 6657
following apply:6658

       (a) The offender or delinquent child was convicted of,6659
pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a delinquent child for6660
committing, a sexually oriented offense that is not a 6661
registration-exempt sexually oriented offense in another state or,6662
in a federal court, a military court, or an Indian tribal court, 6663
or in a court of any nation other than the United States.6664

       (b) As a result of the conviction, plea of guilty, or6665
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section, the6666
offender or delinquent child is required under the law of the6667
jurisdiction under which the offender or delinquent child was6668
convicted, pleaded guilty, or was adjudicated to register as a sex6669
offender until the offender's or delinquent child's death and is6670
required to verify the offender's or delinquent child's address on6671
at least a quarterly basis each year.6672

       (c) The offender or delinquent child was automatically6673
classified as a sexual predator under division (A) of this section6674
in relation to the conviction, guilty plea, or adjudication6675
described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section.6676

       (2) The court may enter a determination that the offender or6677
delinquent child filing the petition described in division (F)(1)6678
of this section is not an adjudicated sexual predator in this6679
state for purposes of the sex offender registration and other6680
requirements of this chapter or the community notification 6681
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the 6682
Revised Code only if the offender or delinquent child proves by 6683
clear and convincing evidence that the requirement of the other 6684
jurisdiction that the offender or delinquent child register as a 6685
sex offender until the offender's or delinquent child's death and 6686
the requirement that the offender or delinquent child verify the 6687
offender's or delinquent child's address on at least a quarterly 6688
basis each year is not substantially similar to a classification 6689
as a sexual predator for purposes of this chapter. If the court 6690
enters a determination that the offender or delinquent child is 6691
not an adjudicated sexual predator in this state for those 6692
purposes, the court shall include in the determination a statement 6693
of the reason or reasons why it so determined.6694

       (G) If, prior to the effective date of this section, an 6695
offender or delinquent child was adjudicated a sexual predator or 6696
was determined to be a habitual sex offender under this section or 6697
section 2152.82, 2152.83, 2152.84, or 2152.85 of the Revised Code 6698
and if, on and after the effective date of this amendment, the 6699
sexually oriented offense upon which the classification or 6700
determination was based no longer is considered a sexually 6701
oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, 6702
notwithstanding the redesignation of that offense, on and after 6703
the effective date of this amendment, all of the following apply:6704

       (1) Divisions (A)(1) or (2) or (E)(1) and (2) of section 6705
2950.091 of the Revised Code apply regarding the offender or 6706
child, and the judge's classification or determination made prior 6707
to the effective date of this amendment shall be considered for 6708
all purposes to be a classification or determination that 6709
classifies the offender or child as described in those divisions.6710

       (2) The offender's or child's classification or determination 6711
under divisions (A)(1) or (2) or (E)(1) and (2) of section 6712
2950.091 of the Revised Code shall be considered, for purposes of 6713
section 2950.07 of the Revised Code and for all other purposes, to 6714
be a continuation of the classification or determination made 6715
prior to the effective date of this amendment.6716

       (3) The offender's or child's duties under this chapter 6717
relative to that classification or determination shall be 6718
considered for all purposes to be a continuation of the duties 6719
related to that classification or determination as they existed 6720
prior to the effective date of this amendment.6721

       Sec. 2950.091.  (A)(1) If, prior to the effective date of 6722
this section, a person was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or was 6723
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented 6724
offense, if, prior to the effective date of this section, the 6725
offender or delinquent child was classified a sexual predator in 6726
relation to that offense pursuant to division (A) of section 6727
2950.09 of the Revised Code, and if, on and after the effective 6728
date of this section, the sexually oriented offense upon which the 6729
classification was based no longer is considered a sexually 6730
oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, 6731
notwithstanding the redesignation of the offense, the 6732
classification of the offender or child as a sexual predator 6733
remains valid and in effect on and after the effective date of 6734
this section.6735

       (2) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a person 6736
was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a 6737
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense, if, 6738
prior to the effective date of this section, the offender or 6739
delinquent child was adjudicated a sexual predator in relation to 6740
that offense under section 2950.09 or section 2152.82, 2152.83, 6741
2152.84, or 2152.85 of the Revised Code, if, on and after the 6742
effective date of this section, the sexually oriented offense upon 6743
which the adjudication was based no longer is considered a 6744
sexually oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented 6745
offense, and if division (A)(1) of this section does not apply, 6746
notwithstanding the redesignation of the offense, on and after the 6747
effective date of this section, the offender or delinquent child 6748
automatically is classified a child-victim predator. If a person 6749
is convicted, pleads guilty, or adjudicated a delinquent child in 6750
a court of another state, in a federal court, military court, or 6751
Indian tribal court, or in a court of any nation other than the 6752
United States for committing a child-victim oriented offense, and 6753
if, as a result of that conviction, plea of guilty, or 6754
adjudication, the person is required under the law of the 6755
jurisdiction in which the person was convicted, pleaded guilty, or 6756
adjudicated to register as a child-victim offender or sex offender 6757
until the person's death, that conviction, plea of guilty, or 6758
adjudication automatically classifies the person a child-victim 6759
predator for the purposes of this chapter, but the person may 6760
challenge that classification pursuant to division (F) of this 6761
section.6762

       (3) In all cases not described in division (A)(1) or (2) of 6763
this section, a person who is convicted of or pleads guilty to, 6764
has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or is adjudicated a 6765
delinquent child for committing a child-victim oriented offense 6766
may be classified a child-victim predator for purposes of this 6767
chapter only in accordance with division (B) or (C) of this 6768
section or, regarding delinquent children, divisions (B) and (C) 6769
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code.6770

       (B)(1)(a) Regardless of when the offense was committed, the 6771
judge who is to impose sentence on or after the effective date of 6772
this section on an offender who has been convicted of or pleaded 6773
guilty to a child-victim oriented offense shall conduct a hearing 6774
to determine whether the offender is a child-victim predator.6775

       (b) The judge who is to impose or has imposed an order of 6776
disposition upon a child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for 6777
committing on or after the effective date of this section a 6778
child-victim oriented offense shall conduct a hearing as provided 6779
in this division to determine whether the child is to be 6780
classified as a child-victim predator if either of the following 6781
applies:6782

       (i) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A) 6783
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a 6784
juvenile offender registrant.6785

       (ii) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code 6786
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under 6787
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the 6788
judge determines at that hearing that the child will be classified 6789
a juvenile offender registrant.6790

       (2) Regarding an offender, the judge shall conduct the 6791
hearing required by division (B)(1)(a) of this section prior to 6792
sentencing and, if the child-victim oriented offense is a felony 6793
and if the hearing is being conducted under division (B)(1)(a) of 6794
this section, the judge may conduct it as part of the sentencing 6795
hearing required by section 2929.19 of the Revised Code. Regarding 6796
a delinquent child, the judge may conduct the hearing required by 6797
division (B)(1)(b) of this section at the same time as, or 6798
separate from, the dispositional hearing, as specified in the 6799
applicable provision of section 2152.82 or 2152.83 of the Revised 6800
Code. The court shall give the offender or delinquent child and 6801
the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or handled the case 6802
against the delinquent child for the child-victim oriented offense 6803
notice of the date, time, and location of the hearing. At the 6804
hearing, the offender or delinquent child and the prosecutor have 6805
the same opportunities and rights as described in division (B)(2) 6806
of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code regarding sexual predator 6807
hearings.6808

       (3) In making a determination under divisions (B)(1) and (4) 6809
of this section as to whether an offender or delinquent child is a 6810
child-victim predator, the judge shall consider all relevant 6811
factors, including, but not limited to, all of the factors 6812
identified in division (B)(3) of section 2950.09 of the Revised 6813
Code regarding sexual predator hearings, except that all 6814
references in the factors so identified in that division to any 6815
"sexual offense" or "sexually oriented offense" shall be construed 6816
for purposes of this division as being references to a 6817
"child-victim oriented offense" and all references in the factors 6818
so identified to "sexual offenders" shall be construed for 6819
purposes of this division as being references to "child-victim 6820
offenders."6821

       (4) After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at 6822
the hearing conducted under division (B)(1) of this section and 6823
the factors specified in division (B)(3) of this section, the 6824
court shall determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the 6825
subject offender or delinquent child is a child-victim predator. 6826
If the court determines that the subject offender or delinquent 6827
child is not a child-victim predator, the court shall specify in 6828
the offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction that 6829
contains the sentence or in the delinquent child's dispositional 6830
order, as appropriate, that the court has determined that the 6831
offender or delinquent child is not a child-victim predator and 6832
the reason or reasons why the court determined that the subject 6833
offender or delinquent child is not a child-victim predator. If 6834
the court determines by clear and convincing evidence that the 6835
subject offender or delinquent child is a child-victim predator, 6836
the court shall specify in the offender's sentence and the 6837
judgment of conviction that contains the sentence or in the 6838
delinquent child's dispositional order, as appropriate, that the 6839
court has determined that the offender or delinquent child is a 6840
child-victim predator and shall specify that the determination was 6841
pursuant to division (B) of this section. The offender or 6842
delinquent child and the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or 6843
handled the case against the delinquent child for the child-victim 6844
oriented offense in question may appeal as a matter of right the 6845
court's determination under this division as to whether the 6846
offender or delinquent child is, or is not, a child-victim 6847
predator.6848

       (C)(1) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a 6849
person was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented 6850
offense, if, on and after the effective date of this section, the 6851
sexually oriented offense no longer is considered a sexually 6852
oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, 6853
if the person was not sentenced for the offense on or after 6854
January 1, 1997, and if, on or after the effective date of this 6855
section, the offender is serving a term of imprisonment in a state 6856
correctional institution, the department of rehabilitation and 6857
correction shall determine whether to recommend that the offender 6858
be adjudicated a child-victim predator. In making a determination 6859
under this division as to whether to recommend that the offender 6860
be adjudicated a child-victim predator, the department shall 6861
consider all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all 6862
of the factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this 6863
section. If the department determines that it will recommend that 6864
the offender be adjudicated a child-victim predator or determines 6865
that it will not recommend that the offender be adjudicated a 6866
child-victim predator, it immediately shall send its 6867
recommendation or determination to the court that sentenced the 6868
offender. In all cases, the department shall enter its 6869
determination and recommendation in the offender's institutional 6870
record, and the court shall proceed in accordance with division 6871
(C)(2) of this section.6872

       (2)(a) If, pursuant to division (C)(1) of this section, the 6873
department of rehabilitation and correction sends to a court a 6874
recommendation that an offender be adjudicated a child-victim 6875
predator, the court is not bound by the department's 6876
recommendation, and the court shall conduct a hearing to determine 6877
whether the offender is a child-victim predator. In any case, the 6878
court shall not make a determination that the offender is, or is 6879
not, a child-victim predator without a hearing. The court may hold 6880
the hearing and make the determination prior to the offender's 6881
release from imprisonment or at any time within one year following 6882
the offender's release from that imprisonment.6883

       (b) If, pursuant to division (C)(1) of this section, the 6884
department sends to the court a determination that it is not 6885
recommending that an offender be adjudicated a child-victim 6886
predator, the court shall not make any determination as to whether 6887
the offender is, or is not, a child-victim predator but shall 6888
determine whether the offender previously has been convicted of or 6889
pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense other than the 6890
offense in relation to which the department made its 6891
determination.6892

       The court may conduct a hearing to determine whether the 6893
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 6894
child-victim oriented offense but may make the determination 6895
without a hearing. However, if the court determines that the 6896
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to an 6897
offense of that nature, it shall not impose a requirement that the 6898
offender be subject to the community notification provisions 6899
contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code 6900
without a hearing. The court shall include in the offender's 6901
institutional record any determination made under this division as 6902
to whether the offender previously has been convicted of or 6903
pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense and whether the 6904
offender is a habitual child-victim offender.6905

       (c) Upon scheduling a hearing under division (C)(2)(a) or (b) 6906
of this section, the court shall give the offender and the 6907
prosecutor who prosecuted the offender for the child-victim 6908
oriented offense, or that prosecutor's successor in office, notice 6909
of the date, time, and place of the hearing. If the hearing is 6910
scheduled under division (C)(2)(a) of this section to determine 6911
whether the offender is a child-victim predator, it shall be 6912
conducted in the manner described in division (B)(1) of this 6913
section regarding hearings conducted under that division, and, in 6914
making a determination under this division as to whether the 6915
offender is a child-victim predator, the court shall consider all 6916
relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all of the 6917
factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section. 6918
After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at the 6919
child-victim predator hearing and the factors specified in 6920
divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section, the court shall 6921
determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the offender is 6922
a child-victim predator. If the court determines at the 6923
child-victim predator hearing that the offender is not a 6924
child-victim predator, it also shall determine whether the 6925
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 6926
child-victim oriented offense other than the offense in relation 6927
to which the hearing is being conducted.6928

       Upon making its determinations at the child-victim predator 6929
hearing, the court shall proceed as follows:6930

       (i) If the court determines that the offender is not a 6931
child-victim predator and that the offender previously has not 6932
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented 6933
offense other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is 6934
being conducted, it shall include in the offender's institutional 6935
record its determinations and the reason or reasons why it 6936
determined that the offender is not a child-victim predator.6937

       (ii) If the court determines that the offender is not a 6938
child-victim predator but that the offender previously has been 6939
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense 6940
other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is being 6941
conducted, it shall include in the offender's institutional record 6942
its determination that the offender is not a child-victim predator 6943
but is a habitual child-victim offender and the reason or reasons 6944
why it determined that the offender is not a child-victim 6945
predator, shall attach the determinations and the reason or 6946
reasons to the offender's sentence, shall specify that the 6947
determinations were made pursuant to division (C) of this section, 6948
shall provide a copy of the determinations and the reason or 6949
reasons to the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the 6950
department of rehabilitation and correction, and may impose a 6951
requirement that the offender be subject to the community 6952
notification provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 6953
of the Revised Code. The offender shall not be subject to those 6954
community notification provisions relative to the child-victim 6955
oriented offense in question if the court does not so impose the 6956
requirement described in this division. If the court imposes that 6957
requirement, the offender may appeal the judge's determination 6958
that the offender is a habitual child-victim offender.6959

       (iii) If the court determines by clear and convincing 6960
evidence that the offender is a child-victim predator, it shall 6961
enter its determination in the offender's institutional record, 6962
shall attach the determination to the offender's sentence, shall 6963
specify that the determination was made pursuant to division (C) 6964
of this section, and shall provide a copy of the determination to 6965
the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the department 6966
of rehabilitation and correction. The offender and the prosecutor 6967
may appeal as a matter of right the judge's determination under 6968
this division as to whether the offender is, or is not, a 6969
child-victim predator.6970

       If the hearing is scheduled under division (C)(2)(b) of this 6971
section to determine whether the offender previously has been 6972
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense 6973
or whether to subject the offender to the community notification 6974
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the 6975
Revised Code, upon making the determination, the court shall 6976
attach the determination or determinations to the offender's 6977
sentence, shall provide a copy to the offender, to the prosecuting 6978
attorney, and to the department of rehabilitation and correction 6979
and may impose a requirement that the offender be subject to the 6980
community notification provisions. The offender shall not be 6981
subject to the community notification provisions relative to the 6982
child-victim oriented offense in question if the court does not so 6983
impose the requirement described in this division. If the court 6984
imposes that requirement, the offender may appeal the judge's 6985
determination that the offender is a habitual child-victim 6986
offender.6987

       (3) Divisions (C)(1) and (2) of this section do not require a 6988
court to conduct a new hearing under those divisions for any 6989
offender regarding a child-victim oriented offense if, prior to 6990
the effective date of this section, the court previously conducted 6991
a hearing under divisions (C)(1) and (2) of section 2950.09 of the 6992
Revised Code regarding that offense, while it formerly was 6993
classified a sexually oriented offense, to determine whether the 6994
offender was a sexual predator. Divisions (C)(1) and (2) of this 6995
section do not require a court to conduct a hearing under those 6996
divisions for any offender regarding a child-victim oriented 6997
offense if, prior to the effective date of this section and 6998
pursuant to divisions (C)(1) and (2) of section 2950.09 of the 6999
Revised Code, the department of rehabilitation and correction 7000
recommended that the offender be adjudicated a sexual predator 7001
regarding that offense, while it formerly was classified a 7002
sexually oriented offense, and the court denied the recommendation 7003
and determined that the offender was not a sexual predator without 7004
a hearing, provided that this provision does not apply if the 7005
child-victim oriented offense in question was an offense described 7006
in division (D)(1)(c) of section 2950.01 of the Revised Code.7007

       (D)(1) Division (D) of this section does not apply to any 7008
person who has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 7009
child-victim oriented offense. Division (D) of this section 7010
applies only to delinquent children as provided in Chapter 2152. 7011
of the Revised Code. A person who has been adjudicated a 7012
delinquent child for committing a child-victim oriented offense 7013
and who has been classified by a juvenile court judge a juvenile 7014
offender registrant or, if applicable, additionally has been 7015
determined by a juvenile court judge to be a child-victim predator 7016
or habitual child-victim offender, may petition the adjudicating 7017
court for a reclassification or declassification pursuant to 7018
section 2152.85 of the Revised Code.7019

       A judge who is reviewing a child-victim predator 7020
determination for a delinquent child under section 2152.84 or 7021
2152.85 of the Revised Code shall comply with this section. At the 7022
hearing, the judge shall consider all relevant evidence and 7023
information, including, but not limited to, the factors set forth 7024
in division (B)(3) of this section. The judge shall not enter a 7025
determination that the delinquent child no longer is a 7026
child-victim predator unless the judge determines by clear and 7027
convincing evidence that the delinquent child is unlikely to 7028
commit a child-victim oriented offense in the future. If the judge 7029
enters a determination under this division that the delinquent 7030
child no longer is a child-victim predator, the judge shall notify 7031
the bureau of criminal identification and investigation of the 7032
determination and shall include in the notice a statement of the 7033
reason or reasons why it determined that the delinquent child no 7034
longer is a child-victim predator. Upon receipt of the 7035
notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff with 7036
whom the delinquent child most recently registered under section 7037
2950.04 or 2950.05 of the Revised Code of the determination that 7038
the offender no longer is a child-victim predator.7039

       (2) If an offender who has been convicted of or pleaded 7040
guilty to a child-victim oriented offense is classified a 7041
child-victim predator pursuant to division (A) of this section or 7042
has been adjudicated a child-victim predator relative to the 7043
offense as described in division (B) or (C) of this section, 7044
subject to division (F) of this section, the classification or 7045
adjudication of the offender as a child-victim predator is 7046
permanent and continues in effect until the offender's death, and 7047
in no case shall the classification or adjudication be removed or 7048
terminated.7049

       (E)(1) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a 7050
person was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a 7051
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense, if, 7052
on and after the effective date of this section, the sexually 7053
oriented offense no longer is considered a sexually oriented 7054
offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, if, prior 7055
to the effective date of this section, a judge determined that the 7056
offender or delinquent child was a habitual sex offender, and if 7057
one or more of the offenses that was the basis of the offender or 7058
delinquent child being a habitual sex offender remains on and 7059
after the effective date of this section a sexually oriented 7060
offense, notwithstanding the redesignation of the offense as 7061
described in this division, the determination and classification 7062
of that person as a habitual sex offender remains valid and in 7063
effect on and after the effective date of this section.7064

       (2) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a person 7065
was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a delinquent 7066
child for committing a sexually oriented offense, if, on and after 7067
the effective date of this section, the sexually oriented offense 7068
no longer is considered a sexually oriented offense but instead is 7069
a child-victim oriented offense, if, prior to the effective date 7070
of this section, a judge determined that the offender or 7071
delinquent child was a habitual sex offender, and if none of the 7072
offenses that was the basis of the offender or delinquent child 7073
being a habitual sex offender remains on and after the effective 7074
date of this section a sexually oriented offense, on and after the 7075
effective date of this section, the offender or delinquent child 7076
automatically is classified a habitual child-victim offender.7077

       (3) If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to 7078
committing a child-victim oriented offense and is to be sentenced 7079
for the offense on or after the effective date of this section, 7080
the judge who is to impose sentence on the offender shall 7081
determine, prior to sentencing, whether the offender previously 7082
has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a 7083
delinquent child for committing, a child-victim oriented offense 7084
and is a habitual child-victim offender. The judge who is to 7085
impose or has imposed an order of disposition on or after the 7086
effective date of this section upon a child who is adjudicated a 7087
delinquent child for committing a child-victim oriented offense 7088
shall determine, prior to entering the order classifying the 7089
delinquent child a juvenile child-victim offender registrant, 7090
whether the delinquent child previously has been convicted of or 7091
pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a delinquent child for 7092
committing, a child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual 7093
child-victim offender, if either of the following applies:7094

       (a) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A) 7095
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a 7096
juvenile offender registrant.7097

       (b) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code 7098
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under 7099
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the 7100
judge determines at that hearing that the child will be classified 7101
a juvenile offender registrant.7102

       (4) If, under division (E)(3) of this section, the judge 7103
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has 7104
not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a 7105
delinquent child for committing, a child-victim oriented offense 7106
or that the offender otherwise does not satisfy the criteria for 7107
being a habitual child-victim offender, the judge shall specify in 7108
the offender's sentence or in the order classifying the delinquent 7109
child a juvenile child-victim offender registrant that the judge 7110
has determined that the offender or delinquent child is not a 7111
habitual child-victim offender. If the judge determines that the 7112
offender or delinquent child previously has been convicted of or 7113
pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a delinquent child for 7114
committing, a child-victim oriented offense and that the offender 7115
satisfies all other criteria for being a habitual child-victim 7116
offender, the judge shall specify in the offender's sentence and 7117
the judgment of conviction that contains the sentence or in the 7118
order classifying the delinquent child a juvenile offender 7119
registrant that the judge has determined that the offender or 7120
delinquent child is a habitual child-victim offender and may 7121
impose a requirement in that sentence and judgment of conviction 7122
or in that order that the offender or delinquent child be subject 7123
to the community notification provisions contained in sections 7124
2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code. Unless the habitual 7125
child-victim offender also has been adjudicated a child-victim 7126
predator relative to the child-victim oriented offense in 7127
question, the offender or delinquent child shall be subject to 7128
those community notification provisions only if the court imposes 7129
the requirement described in this division in the offender's 7130
sentence and the judgment of conviction or in the order 7131
classifying the delinquent child a juvenile offender registrant. 7132
If the court determines pursuant to this division or division 7133
(C)(2) of this section that an offender is a habitual child-victim 7134
offender, the determination is permanent and continues in effect 7135
until the offender's death, and in no case shall the determination 7136
be removed or terminated.7137

       If a court in another state, a federal court, military court, 7138
or Indian tribal court, or a court in any nation other than the 7139
United States, determines a person is a habitual child-victim 7140
offender in that jurisdiction, the person is considered to be 7141
determined a habitual child-victim offender in this state. If the 7142
court in the other state, the federal court, military court, or 7143
Indian tribal court, or the court in any nation other than the 7144
United States subjects the habitual child-victim offender to 7145
community notification regarding the person's place of residence, 7146
the person, as much as is practicable, is subject to the community 7147
notification provisions regarding the person's place of residence 7148
that are contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised 7149
Code, unless the court that so subjected the person to community 7150
notification determines that the person no longer is subject to 7151
community notification.7152

       (F)(1) An offender or delinquent child classified a 7153
child-victim predator may petition the court of common pleas or, 7154
for a delinquent child, the juvenile court of the county in which 7155
the offender or delinquent child resides or temporarily is 7156
domiciled to enter a determination that the offender or delinquent 7157
child is not an adjudicated child-victim predator in this state 7158
for purposes of the registration and other requirements of this 7159
chapter or the community notification provisions contained in 7160
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code if all of the 7161
following apply:7162

       (a) The offender or delinquent child was convicted, pleaded 7163
guilty, or adjudicated a delinquent child in a court of another 7164
state, in a federal court, a military court, or Indian tribal 7165
court, or in a court of any nation other than the United States 7166
for committing a child-victim oriented offense.7167

       (b) As a result of the conviction, plea of guilty, or 7168
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section, the 7169
offender or delinquent child is required under the law of the 7170
jurisdiction under which the offender or delinquent child was 7171
convicted, pleaded guilty, or was adjudicated to register as a 7172
child-victim offender until the offender's or delinquent child's 7173
death.7174

       (c) The offender or delinquent child was automatically 7175
classified a child-victim predator under division (A) of this 7176
section in relation to the conviction, guilty plea, or 7177
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section.7178

       (2) The court may enter a determination that the offender or 7179
delinquent child filing the petition described in division (F)(1) 7180
of this section is not an adjudicated child-victim predator in 7181
this state for purposes of the registration and other requirements 7182
of this chapter or the community notification provisions contained 7183
in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code only if the 7184
offender or delinquent child proves by clear and convincing 7185
evidence that the requirement of the other jurisdiction that the 7186
offender or delinquent child register as a child-victim offender 7187
until the offender's or delinquent child's death is not 7188
substantially similar to a classification as a child-victim 7189
predator for purposes of this chapter. If the court enters a 7190
determination that the offender or delinquent child is not an 7191
adjudicated child-victim predator in this state for those 7192
purposes, the court shall include in the determination a statement 7193
of the reason or reasons why it so determined.7194

       Sec. 2950.10.  (A)(1) If a person is convicted of or pleads7195
guilty to, or has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, either a7196
sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 7197
sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense or a 7198
person is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing either a 7199
sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 7200
sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense and 7201

and residencethe address or addresses of the offender's 7216
residence, school, institution of higher education, or place of 7217
employment, as applicable, or the delinquent child's name and 7218
residence address or addresses. The sheriff shall provide the7219

been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, either a sexually oriented7225
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 7226

section, and if the offender or delinquent child notifies the7241
sheriff of a change of residence, school, institution of higher 7242
education, or place of employment address or the delinquent child 7243
notifies the sheriff of a change of residence address pursuant to7244
section 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the sheriff shall notify the 7245
victim of the sexually oriented offense or child-victim oriented 7246
offense, in writing, that the offender's or delinquent child's 7247

lesser likelihood of recidivism outweigh the applicable factors9751
under that section indicating a greater likelihood of recidivism.9752

       (2) A community control sanction or a combination of9753
community control sanctions would not demean the seriousness of9754
the offense, because one or more factors under section 2929.12 of9755
the Revised Code that indicate that the offender's conduct was9756
less serious than conduct normally constituting the offense are9757
applicable, and they outweigh the applicable factors under that9758
section that indicate that the offender's conduct was more serious9759
than conduct normally constituting the offense.9760

       (E)(1) Except as provided in division (F) of this section,9761
for any drug offense that is a violation of any provision of9762
Chapter 2925. of the Revised Code and that is a felony of the9763
third, fourth, or fifth degree, the applicability of a presumption9764
under division (D) of this section in favor of a prison term or of9765
division (B) or (C) of this section in determining whether to9766
impose a prison term for the offense shall be determined as9767
specified in section 2925.02, 2925.03, 2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.06,9768
2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, or 2925.37 of the9769
Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the violation.9770

       (2) If an offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to9771
a felony violates the conditions of a community control sanction9772
imposed for the offense solely by reason of producing positive9773
results on a drug test, the court, as punishment for the violation9774
of the sanction, shall not order that the offender be imprisoned9775
unless the court determines on the record either of the following:9776

       (a) The offender had been ordered as a sanction for the9777
felony to participate in a drug treatment program, in a drug9778
education program, or in narcotics anonymous or a similar program,9779
and the offender continued to use illegal drugs after a reasonable9780
period of participation in the program.9781

       (b) The imprisonment of the offender for the violation is9782
consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set9783
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code.9784

       (F) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, the 9785
court shall impose a prison term or terms under sections 2929.02 9786

Code and except as specifically provided in section 2929.20 or 9788

offense under section 2967.13 of the Revised Code shall not reduce 9790
the terms pursuant to section 2929.20, section 2967.193, or any 9791
other provision of Chapter 2967. or Chapter 5120. of the Revised 9792
Code for any of the following offenses:9793

       (1) Aggravated murder when death is not imposed or murder;9794

       (2) Any rape, regardless of whether force was involved and9795
regardless of the age of the victim, or an attempt to commit rape 9796

offender would have been subject to a sentence of life9798

for a fourth degree felony OVI offense be sentenced to another9883
mandatory term of local incarceration under that division for any9884
violation of division (A) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code.9885
The court shall not sentence the offender to a community control9886

       (a) The department of rehabilitation and correction shall9900
make a reasonable effort to ensure that a sufficient number of9901
offenders sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division9902
are placed in the privately operated and managed prison so that9903
the privately operated and managed prison has full occupancy.9904

       (b) Unless the privately operated and managed prison has full9905
occupancy, the department of rehabilitation and correction shall 9906
not place any offender sentenced to a mandatory prison term under 9907
this division in any intensive program prison established pursuant9908
to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code other than the privately 9909
operated and managed prison.9910

       (H) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 9911
offense committed on or after January 1, 1997, the judge shall9912

procedure pursuant to section 2901.07 of the Revised Code if9914
either of the following applies:9915

       (1) The offense was a sexually violent offense, and the9916

violent predator specification that was included in the9918
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the9919
sexually violent offense.9920

       (2) The judge imposing sentence for the sexually oriented9921
offense determines pursuant to division (B) of section 2950.09 of9922
the Revised Code that the offender is a sexual predator.9923

       (I) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 9924
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 9925
offense or for a child-victim oriented offense committed on or 9926
after January 1, 1997, the judge shall include in the sentence a 9927
summary of the offender's duty to register pursuant to section9928
duties imposed under sections 2950.04 of the Revised Code, the9929
offender's duty to provide notice of a change in residence address9930
and register the new residence address pursuant to section, 9931
2950.041, 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the offender's duty to 9932
periodically verify the offender's current residence address 9933
pursuant to section, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code, and the9934
duration of the duties. The judge shall inform the offender, at 9935
the time of sentencing, of those duties and of their duration and, 9936
if required under division (A)(2) of section 2950.03 of the 9937
Revised Code, shall perform the duties specified in that section.9938

       (J)(1) Except as provided in division (J)(2) of this section, 9939
when considering sentencing factors under this section in relation 9940
to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an attempt 9941
to commit an offense in violation of section 2923.02 of the 9942
Revised Code, the sentencing court shall consider the factors9943
applicable to the felony category of the violation of section9944
2923.02 of the Revised Code instead of the factors applicable to9945
the felony category of the offense attempted.9946

       (2) When considering sentencing factors under this section in 9947
relation to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an 9948
attempt to commit a drug abuse offense for which the penalty is9949
determined by the amount or number of unit doses of the controlled9950
substance involved in the drug abuse offense, the sentencing court9951
shall consider the factors applicable to the felony category that9952
the drug abuse offense attempted would be if that drug abuse9953
offense had been committed and had involved an amount or number of9954
unit doses of the controlled substance that is within the next9955
lower range of controlled substance amounts than was involved in9956
the attempt.9957

       (K) As used in this section, "drug abuse offense" has the9958
same meaning as in section 2925.01 of the Revised Code.9959

       Sec. 2929.19.  (A)(1) The court shall hold a sentencing9960
hearing before imposing a sentence under this chapter upon an9961
offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a felony and9962
before resentencing an offender who was convicted of or pleaded9963
guilty to a felony and whose case was remanded pursuant to section9964

offender, the prosecuting attorney, the victim or the victim's9966
representative in accordance with section 2930.14 of the Revised9967
Code, and, with the approval of the court, any other person may9968
present information relevant to the imposition of sentence in the9969
case. The court shall inform the offender of the verdict of the9970
jury or finding of the court and ask the offender whether the9971
offender has anything to say as to why sentence should not be9972
imposed upon the offender.9973

       (2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, before9974

the sexually oriented offense, the court shall conduct a hearing 9989
in accordance with division (B) of section 2950.09 of the Revised 9990
Code to determine whether the offender is a sexual predator. The 9991
court shall not conduct a hearing under that division if the 9992
offender is being sentenced for a sexually violent offense and, if9993
a sexually violent predator specification was included in the9994
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the9995
sexually violent offense, and if the offender was convicted of or 9996
pleaded guilty to that sexually violent predator specification. 9997

a sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 9999
sexually oriented offense, the court also shall comply with 10000
