law enforcement officer of the fact that the tenant or person has792
or presently is engaged in a violation as described in this793
division and it occurred in, is occurring in, or otherwise was or794
is connected with the tenant's premises.795

division precludes the commencement of an action under division 819
(A)(12) of this section when the additional circumstances820
described in that division apply.821

       (11) Against manufactured home park residents who have822
committed two material violations of the rules of the manufactured823

the violations in compliance with section 3733.13 of the Revised826

community control sanctions would not demean the seriousness of2819
the offense, because one or more factors under section 2929.12 of2820
the Revised Code that indicate that the offender's conduct was2821
less serious than conduct normally constituting the offense are2822
applicable, and they outweigh the applicable factors under that2823
section that indicate that the offender's conduct was more serious2824
than conduct normally constituting the offense.2825

       (E)(1) Except as provided in division (F) of this section,2826
for any drug offense that is a violation of any provision of2827
Chapter 2925. of the Revised Code and that is a felony of the2828
third, fourth, or fifth degree, the applicability of a presumption2829
under division (D) of this section in favor of a prison term or of2830
division (B) or (C) of this section in determining whether to2831
impose a prison term for the offense shall be determined as2832
specified in section 2925.02, 2925.03, 2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.06,2833
2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, or 2925.37 of the2834
Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the violation.2835

       (2) If an offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to2836
a felony violates the conditions of a community control sanction2837
imposed for the offense solely by reason of producing positive2838
results on a drug test, the court, as punishment for the violation2839
of the sanction, shall not order that the offender be imprisoned2840
unless the court determines on the record either of the following:2841

       (a) The offender had been ordered as a sanction for the2842
felony to participate in a drug treatment program, in a drug2843
education program, or in narcotics anonymous or a similar program,2844
and the offender continued to use illegal drugs after a reasonable2845
period of participation in the program.2846

       (b) The imprisonment of the offender for the violation is2847
consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set2848
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code.2849

mandatory term of local incarceration pursuant to division (G)(1)2949
of this section for a fourth degree felony OMVI offense be2950
sentenced to another mandatory term of local incarceration under2951
that division for any violation of division (A) of section 4511.192952

Revised Code that is privately operated and managed by a2964
contractor pursuant to a contract entered into under section 9.062965
of the Revised Code, both of the following apply:2966

       (a) The department of rehabilitation and correction shall2967
make a reasonable effort to ensure that a sufficient number of2968
offenders sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division2969
are placed in the privately operated and managed prison so that2970
the privately operated and managed prison has full occupancy.2971

       (b) Unless the privately operated and managed prison has full2972
occupancy, the department of rehabilitation and correction shall 2973
not place any offender sentenced to a mandatory prison term under 2974
this division in any intensive program prison established pursuant2975
to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code other than the privately 2976
operated and managed prison.2977

       (H) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 2978
offense committed on or after January 1, 1997, the judge shall2979

procedure pursuant to section 2901.07 of the Revised Code if2981
either of the following applies:2982

       (1) The offense was a sexually violent offense, and the2983
offender also was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually2984
violent predator specification that was included in the2985
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the2986
sexually violent offense.2987

       (2) The judge imposing sentence for the sexually oriented2988
offense determines pursuant to division (B) of section 2950.09 of2989
the Revised Code that the offender is a sexual predator.2990

       (I) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 2991
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 2992
offense or for a child-victim oriented offense committed on or 2993
after January 1, 1997, the judge shall include in the sentence a 2994
summary of the offender's duty to register pursuant to section2995
duties imposed under sections 2950.04 of the Revised Code, the2996
offender's duty to provide notice of a change in residence address2997
and register the new residence address pursuant to section, 2998
2950.041, 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the offender's duty to 2999
periodically verify the offender's current residence address 3000
pursuant to section, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code, and the3001
duration of the duties. The judge shall inform the offender, at 3002
the time of sentencing, of those duties and of their duration and, 3003
if required under division (A)(2) of section 2950.03 of the 3004
Revised Code, shall perform the duties specified in that section.3005

       (J)(1) Except as provided in division (J)(2) of this section, 3006
when considering sentencing factors under this section in relation 3007
to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an attempt 3008
to commit an offense in violation of section 2923.02 of the 3009
Revised Code, the sentencing court shall consider the factors3010
applicable to the felony category of the violation of section3011
2923.02 of the Revised Code instead of the factors applicable to3012
the felony category of the offense attempted.3013

       (2) When considering sentencing factors under this section in 3014
relation to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an 3015
attempt to commit a drug abuse offense for which the penalty is3016
determined by the amount or number of unit doses of the controlled3017
substance involved in the drug abuse offense, the sentencing court3018
shall consider the factors applicable to the felony category that3019
the drug abuse offense attempted would be if that drug abuse3020
offense had been committed and had involved an amount or number of3021
unit doses of the controlled substance that is within the next3022
lower range of controlled substance amounts than was involved in3023
the attempt.3024

       (K) As used in this section, "drug abuse offense" has the3025
same meaning as in section 2925.01 of the Revised Code.3026

       Sec. 2929.19.  (A)(1) The court shall hold a sentencing3027
hearing before imposing a sentence under this chapter upon an3028
offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a felony and3029
before resentencing an offender who was convicted of or pleaded3030
guilty to a felony and whose case was remanded pursuant to section3031
2953.07 or 2953.08 of the Revised Code. At the hearing, the3032
offender, the prosecuting attorney, the victim or the victim's3033
representative in accordance with section 2930.14 of the Revised3034
Code, and, with the approval of the court, any other person may3035
present information relevant to the imposition of sentence in the3036
case. The court shall inform the offender of the verdict of the3037
jury or finding of the court and ask the offender whether the3038
offender has anything to say as to why sentence should not be3039
imposed upon the offender.3040

       (2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, before3041
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a3042
sexually oriented offense that was committed on or after January3043
1, 1997, that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 3044
offense, and that is not a sexually violent offense, and before3045
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a3046
sexually violent offense committed on or after January 1, 1997,3047
and who was not charged with a sexually violent predator3048
specification in the indictment, count in the indictment, or3049

the indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging 3055
the sexually oriented offense, the court shall conduct a hearing 3056
in accordance with division (B) of section 2950.09 of the Revised 3057
Code to determine whether the offender is a sexual predator. The 3058
court shall not conduct a hearing under that division if the 3059
offender is being sentenced for a sexually violent offense and, if3060
a sexually violent predator specification was included in the3061
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the3062
sexually violent offense, and if the offender was convicted of or 3063
pleaded guilty to that sexually violent predator specification. 3064
Before imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for 3065
a sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 3066
sexually oriented offense, the court also shall comply with 3067
division (E) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code.3068

       Sec. 2950.02.  (A) The general assembly hereby determines and 4045
declares that it recognizes and finds all of the following:4046

       (1) If the public is provided adequate notice and information 4047
about sexual predators, habitual sex offenders, and certain other4048
offenders and delinquent children who commit sexually oriented 4049
offenses that are not registration-exempt sexually oriented 4050
offenses or who commit child-victim oriented offenses, members of 4051
the public and communities can develop constructive plans to 4052
prepare themselves and their children for the sexual predator's, 4053
habitual sex offender's, or other offender's or delinquent child's4054
release from imprisonment, a prison term, or other confinement or 4055
detention. This allows members of the public and communities to 4056
meet with members of law enforcement agencies to prepare and 4057
obtain information about the rights and responsibilities of the 4058
public and the communities and to provide education and counseling 4059
to their children.4060

       (2) Sexual predators and habitual sexSex offenders and 4061
offenders who commit child-victim oriented offenses pose a high4062
risk of engaging in further offensessexually abusive behavior4063
even after being released from imprisonment, a prison term, or 4064
other confinement or detention, and that protection of members of 4065
the public from sexual predators and habitual sex offenders and 4066
offenders who commit child-victim oriented offenses is a paramount 4067
governmental interest.4068

       (3) The penal, juvenile, and mental health components of the4069
justice system of this state are largely hidden from public view,4070
and a lack of information from any component may result in the4071
failure of the system to satisfy this paramount governmental4072
interest of public safety described in division (A)(2) of this4073
section.4074

       (4) Overly restrictive confidentiality and liability laws4075
governing the release of information about sexual predators and4076
habitual sex offenders and offenders who commit child-victim 4077
oriented offenses have reduced the willingness to release4078
information that could be appropriately released under the public4079
disclosure laws and have increased risks of public safety.4080

       (5) A person who is found to be a sexual predator or a4081
habitual sex offender or to have committed a child-victim oriented 4082
offense has a reduced expectation of privacy because of the 4083
public's interest in public safety and in the effective operation 4084
of government.4085

       (6) The release of information about sexual predators and4086
habitual sex offenders and offenders who commit child-victim 4087
oriented offenses to public agencies and the general public will 4088
further the governmental interests of public safety and public 4089
scrutiny of the criminal, juvenile, and mental health systems as4090
long as the information released is rationally related to the 4091
furtherance of those goals.4092

       (B) The general assembly hereby declares that, in providing4093
in this chapter for registration regarding sexual predators,4094
habitual sex offenders, and offenders and certain delinquent4095
children who have committed sexually oriented offenses that are 4096
not registration-exempt sexually oriented offenses or who have 4097
committed child-victim oriented offenses and for community4098
notification regarding sexual predators and, child-victim 4099
predators, habitual sex offenders, and habitual child-victim 4100
offenders who are about to be or have been released from4101
imprisonment, a prison term, or other confinement or detention and4102
who will live in or near a particular neighborhood or who4103
otherwise will live in or near a particular neighborhood, it is4104
the general assembly's intent to protect the safety and general4105
welfare of the people of this state. The general assembly further4106
declares that it is the policy of this state to require the4107
exchange in accordance with this chapter of relevant information4108
about sexual predators and habitual sex offenders and offenders 4109
who commit child-victim oriented offenses among public agencies 4110
and officials and to authorize the release in accordance with this 4111
chapter of necessary and relevant information about sexual 4112
predators and habitual sex offenders and offenders who commit 4113
child-victim oriented offenses to members of the general public as 4114
a means of assuring public protection and that the exchange or 4115
release of that information is not punitive.4116

       Sec. 2950.021. (A) If an offender is convicted of or pleads 4117
guilty to, or a child is adjudicated a delinquent child for 4118
committing, any presumptive registration-exempt sexually oriented 4119

that offense or the juvenile court that is making the disposition 4121
of the delinquent child for that offense may determine, prior to 4122

described in this division without a hearing but may conduct a 4137
hearing on the matter. In making a determination under this 4138
division, the court shall consider all relevant factors, 4139
including, but not limited to, public safety, the interests of 4140

dispositional order, and shall enter the order in the record in 4165
the case.4166

        (2) Regarding an offender, the presumptive exemption from 4167

section 2152.84 or 2152.85 of the Revised Code shall comply with 6525
this section. At the hearing, the judge shall consider all 6526
relevant evidence and information, including, but not limited to, 6527
the factors set forth in division (B)(3) of this section, either6528
shall enter a determination that the offender no longer is a6529
sexual predator or shall enter an order denying the petition. The 6530
judge shall not enter a determination under this division that the6531
offenderdelinquent child no longer is a sexual predator unless 6532
the judge determines by clear and convincing evidence that the6533
offenderdelinquent child is unlikely to commit a sexually 6534
oriented offense in the future. If the judge enters a6535
determination under this division that the offenderdelinquent 6536
child no longer is a sexual predator, the judge shall notify the 6537
bureau of criminal identification and investigation and the parole 6538
board of the determination and shall include in the notice a 6539
statement of the reason or reasons why it determined that the 6540
delinquent child no longer is a sexual predator. Upon receipt of 6541
the notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff 6542
with whom the offenderdelinquent child most recently registered 6543
under section 2950.04 or 2950.05 of the Revised Code of the 6544
determination that the offenderdelinquent child no longer is a 6545
sexual predator. If the judge enters a determination under this6546
division that the offender no longer is a sexual predator and if6547
the offender has a duty to register under section 2950.04 of the6548
Revised Code resulting from the offender's conviction of or plea6549
of guilty to committing on or after the effective date of this6550
amendment an aggravated sexually oriented offense, the entry of6551
the determination under this division does not affect any duties6552
imposed upon the offender under this chapter as a result of that6553
conviction of or plea of guilty to the aggravated sexually6554
oriented offense. If the judge enters an order denying the6555
petition, the prior adjudication of the offender as a sexual6556
predator shall remain in effect. An offender determined to be a6557
sexual predator in the manner described in division (B) or (C) of6558
this section may file a petition under this division after the6559
expiration of the following periods of time:6560

       (a) Regardless of when the sexually oriented offense was6561
committed, if, on or after January 1, 1997, the offender is6562
imprisoned or sentenced to a prison term or other confinement for6563
the sexually oriented offense in relation to which the6564
determination was made, the offender initially may file the6565
petition not earlier than one year prior to the offender's release6566
from the imprisonment, prison term, or other confinement by6567
discharge, parole, judicial release, or any other final release.6568
If the offender is sentenced on or after January 1, 1997, for the6569
sexually oriented offense in relation to which the determination6570
is made and is not imprisoned or sentenced to a prison term or6571
other confinement for the sexually oriented offense, the offender6572
initially may file the petition upon the expiration of one year6573
after the entry of the offender's judgment of conviction.6574

       (b) After the offender's initial filing of a petition under6575
division (D)(1)(a) of this section, thereafter, an offender may6576
file a petition under this division upon the expiration of five6577
years after the court has entered an order denying the petition6578
under division (D)(1)(a) of this section or the most recent6579
petition the offender has filed under this division.6580

       (2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, division6581
(D)(1) of this section does not apply to a person who is6582
classified as a sexual predator pursuant to division (A) of this6583
section. If a person who is so classified was sentenced to a6584
prison term pursuant to division (A)(3) of section 2971.03 of the6585
Revised Code and if the sentencing court terminates the offender's6586
prison term as provided in division (D) of section 2971.05 of the6587
Revised Code, the court's termination of the prison term6588
automatically shall constitute a determination by the court that6589
the offender no longer is a sexual predator. However, if there is6590
a determination under this division that the offender no longer is6591
a sexual predator and if the offender has a duty to register under6592
section 2950.04 of the Revised Code resulting from the offender's6593
conviction of or plea of guilty to committing on or after the6594
effective date of this amendment an aggravated sexually oriented6595
offense, the determination under this division does not affect any6596
duties imposed upon the offender under this chapter as a result of6597
that conviction of or plea of guilty to the aggravated sexually6598
oriented offense. If the court so terminates the offender's prison 6599
term, the court shall notify the bureau of criminal identification 6600
and investigation and the parole board of the determination that 6601
the offender no longer is a sexual predator. Upon receipt of the 6602
notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff with 6603
whom the offender most recently registered under section 2950.04 6604
or 2950.05 of the Revised Code that the offender no longer is a 6605
sexual predator. If an offender who has been convicted of or 6606
pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense is classified as a 6607
sexual predator pursuant to division (A) of this section is6608
released from prison pursuant to a pardon or commutationor has 6609
been adjudicated a sexual predator relative to the offense as 6610
described in division (B) or (C) of this section, subject to 6611
division (F) of this section, the classification or adjudication6612
of the offender as a sexual predator shall remain in effect after 6613
the offender's release, and the offender may file one or more 6614
petitions in accordance with the procedures and time limitations 6615
contained in division (D)(1) of this section for a determination 6616
that the offender no longer is a sexual predatoris permanent and 6617
continues in effect until the offender's death and in no case 6618
shall the classification or adjudication be removed or terminated.6619

       (E)(1) If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to6620
committing, on or after January 1, 1997, a sexually oriented6621
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 6622
offense, the judge who is to impose sentence on the offender shall6623
determine, prior to sentencing, whether the offender previously6624
has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a6625
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a 6626
child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual sex offender. The 6627
judge who is to impose or has imposed an order of disposition upon 6628
a child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing on or 6629
after January 1, 2002, a sexually oriented offense that is not a 6630
registration-exempt sexually oriented offense shall determine, 6631
prior to entering the order classifying the delinquent child a 6632
juvenile sex offender registrant, whether the delinquent child 6633
previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or 6634
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented 6635
offense or a child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual sex 6636
offender, if either of the following applies:6637

       (a) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A)6638
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a6639
juvenile sex offender registrant;6640

       (b) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code6641
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under6642
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the6643
judge determines at that hearing that the child will be classified6644
a juvenile sex offender registrant.6645

       (2) If, under division (E)(1) of this section, the judge6646
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has6647
not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a6648
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a 6649
child-victim oriented offense or that the offender otherwise does 6650
not satisfy the criteria for being a habitual sex offender, the6651
judge shall specify in the offender's sentence or in the order 6652
classifying the delinquent child a juvenile sex offender 6653
registrant that the judge has determined that the offender or 6654
delinquent child is not a habitual sex offender. If6655

       If, under division (E)(1) of this section, the judge 6656
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has 6657
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a 6658
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a 6659
child-victim oriented offense and that the offender satisfies all6660
other criteria for being a habitual sex offender, the offender or 6661
delinquent child is a habitual sex offender or habitual 6662
child-victim offender and the court shall determine whether to 6663
impose a requirement that the offender or delinquent child be 6664
subject to the community notification provisions contained in 6665
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code. In making the 6666
determination regarding the possible imposition of the community 6667
notification requirement, if at least two of the sexually oriented 6668
offenses or child-victim oriented offenses that are the basis of 6669
the habitual sex offender or habitual child-victim offender 6670
determination were committed against a victim who was under 6671
eighteen years of age, it is presumed that subjecting the offender 6672
or delinquent child to the community notification provisions is 6673
necessary in order to comply with the determinations, findings, 6674
and declarations of the general assembly regarding sex offenders 6675
and child-victim offenders that are set forth in section 2950.02 6676
of the Revised Code. When a judge determines as described in this 6677
division that an offender or delinquent child is a habitual sex 6678
offender or a habitual child-victim offender, the judge shall6679
specify in the offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction6680
that contains the sentence or in the order classifying the6681
delinquent child a juvenile sex offender registrant that the judge6682
has determined that the offender or delinquent child is a habitual6683
sex offender and, regarding an offender who committed the most6684
recent sexually oriented offense prior to the effective date of6685
this amendment or a delinquent child, may impose a requirement in 6686
that sentence and judgment of conviction or in that order that the6687
offender or delinquent child be subject to the community6688
notification provisions regarding the offender's or delinquent6689
child's place of residence that are contained in sections 2950.106690
and 2950.11 of the Revised Code. Unless the habitual sex offender6691
also has been adjudicated as being a sexual predator relative to6692
the sexually oriented offense in question or, the habitual sex 6693
offender was convicted of or pleaded guilty to an aggravated 6694
sexually oriented offense that was committed on or after the 6695
effective date of this amendment, or the habitual sex offender was 6696
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense that 6697
was committed on or after the effective date of this amendment,6698
the offender or delinquent child shall be subject to those6699
community notification provisions only if the court imposes the6700
requirement described in this division in the offender's sentence6701
and the judgment of conviction or in the order classifying the6702
delinquent child a juvenile sex offender registrant. If the court 6703
determines pursuant to this division or division (C)(2) of this 6704
section that an offender is a habitual sex offender, the 6705
determination is permanent and continues in effect until the 6706
offender's death, and in no case shall the determination be 6707
removed or terminated. Sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised 6708
Code automatically apply regarding an offender who was convicted 6709
of or pleaded guilty to an aggravated sexually oriented offense6710
committed on or after June 13, 2002, or was convicted of or6711
pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense committed on or6712
after the effective date of this amendment.6713

       If a court in another state, a federal court, military court, 6714
or Indian tribal court, or a court in any nation other than the 6715
United States determines a person to be a habitual sex offender in 6716
that jurisdiction, the person is considered to be determined to be 6717
a habitual sex offender in this state. If the court in the other 6718
state, the federal court, military court, or Indian tribal court, 6719
or the court in the nation other than the United States subjects 6720
the habitual sex offender to community notification regarding the 6721
person's place of residence, the person, as much as is 6722
practicable, is subject to the community notification provisions 6723
regarding the person's place of residence that are contained in 6724
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code, unless the court 6725
that so subjected the person to community notification determines 6726
that the person no longer is subject to community notification.6727

       (F)(1) An offender or delinquent child classified as a sexual 6728
predator may petition the court of common pleas or, for a6729
delinquent child, the juvenile court of the county in which the6730
offender or delinquent child resides or temporarily is domiciled6731
to enter a determination that the offender or delinquent child is6732
not an adjudicated sexual predator in this state for purposes of6733
the sex offender registration and other requirements of this 6734
chapter or the community notification provisions contained in 6735
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code if all of the 6736
following apply:6737

       (a) The offender or delinquent child was convicted of,6738
pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a delinquent child for6739
committing, a sexually oriented offense that is not a 6740
registration-exempt sexually oriented offense in another state or,6741
in a federal court, a military court, or an Indian tribal court, 6742
or in a court of any nation other than the United States.6743

       (b) As a result of the conviction, plea of guilty, or6744
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section, the6745
offender or delinquent child is required under the law of the6746
jurisdiction under which the offender or delinquent child was6747
convicted, pleaded guilty, or was adjudicated to register as a sex6748
offender until the offender's or delinquent child's death and is6749
required to verify the offender's or delinquent child's address on6750
at least a quarterly basis each year.6751

       (c) The offender or delinquent child was automatically6752
classified as a sexual predator under division (A) of this section6753
in relation to the conviction, guilty plea, or adjudication6754
described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section.6755

       (2) The court may enter a determination that the offender or6756
delinquent child filing the petition described in division (F)(1)6757
of this section is not an adjudicated sexual predator in this6758
state for purposes of the sex offender registration and other6759
requirements of this chapter or the community notification 6760
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the 6761
Revised Code only if the offender or delinquent child proves by 6762
clear and convincing evidence that the requirement of the other 6763
jurisdiction that the offender or delinquent child register as a 6764
sex offender until the offender's or delinquent child's death and 6765
the requirement that the offender or delinquent child verify the 6766
offender's or delinquent child's address on at least a quarterly 6767
basis each year is not substantially similar to a classification 6768
as a sexual predator for purposes of this chapter. If the court 6769
enters a determination that the offender or delinquent child is 6770
not an adjudicated sexual predator in this state for those 6771
purposes, the court shall include in the determination a statement 6772
of the reason or reasons why it so determined.6773

       (G) If, prior to the effective date of this section, an 6774
offender or delinquent child was adjudicated a sexual predator or 6775
was determined to be a habitual sex offender under this section or 6776
section 2152.82, 2152.83, 2152.84, or 2152.85 of the Revised Code 6777
and if, on and after the effective date of this amendment, the 6778
sexually oriented offense upon which the classification or 6779
determination was based no longer is considered a sexually 6780
oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, 6781
notwithstanding the redesignation of that offense, on and after 6782
the effective date of this amendment, all of the following apply:6783

       (1) Divisions (A)(1) or (2) or (E)(1) and (2) of section 6784
2950.091 of the Revised Code apply regarding the offender or 6785
child, and the judge's classification or determination made prior 6786
to the effective date of this amendment shall be considered for 6787
all purposes to be a classification or determination that 6788
classifies the offender or child as described in those divisions.6789

       (2) The offender's or child's classification or determination 6790
under divisions (A)(1) or (2) or (E)(1) and (2) of section 6791
2950.091 of the Revised Code shall be considered, for purposes of 6792
section 2950.07 of the Revised Code and for all other purposes, to 6793
be a continuation of the classification or determination made 6794
prior to the effective date of this amendment.6795

       (3) The offender's or child's duties under this chapter 6796
relative to that classification or determination shall be 6797
considered for all purposes to be a continuation of the duties 6798
related to that classification or determination as they existed 6799
prior to the effective date of this amendment.6800

       Sec. 2950.091.  (A)(1) If, prior to the effective date of 6801
this section, a person was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or was 6802
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented 6803
offense, if, prior to the effective date of this section, the 6804
offender or delinquent child was classified a sexual predator in 6805
relation to that offense pursuant to division (A) of section 6806
2950.09 of the Revised Code, and if, on and after the effective 6807
date of this section, the sexually oriented offense upon which the 6808
classification was based no longer is considered a sexually 6809
oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, 6810
notwithstanding the redesignation of the offense, the 6811
classification of the offender or child as a sexual predator 6812
remains valid and in effect on and after the effective date of 6813
this section.6814

       (2) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a person 6815
was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a 6816
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense, if, 6817
prior to the effective date of this section, the offender or 6818
delinquent child was adjudicated a sexual predator in relation to 6819
that offense under section 2950.09 or section 2152.82, 2152.83, 6820
2152.84, or 2152.85 of the Revised Code, if, on and after the 6821
effective date of this section, the sexually oriented offense upon 6822
which the adjudication was based no longer is considered a 6823
sexually oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented 6824
offense, and if division (A)(1) of this section does not apply, 6825
notwithstanding the redesignation of the offense, on and after the 6826
effective date of this section, the offender or delinquent child 6827
automatically is classified a child-victim predator. If a person 6828
is convicted, pleads guilty, or adjudicated a delinquent child in 6829
a court of another state, in a federal court, military court, or 6830
Indian tribal court, or in a court of any nation other than the 6831
United States for committing a child-victim oriented offense, and 6832
if, as a result of that conviction, plea of guilty, or 6833
adjudication, the person is required under the law of the 6834
jurisdiction in which the person was convicted, pleaded guilty, or 6835
adjudicated to register as a child-victim offender or sex offender 6836
until the person's death, that conviction, plea of guilty, or 6837
adjudication automatically classifies the person a child-victim 6838
predator for the purposes of this chapter, but the person may 6839
challenge that classification pursuant to division (F) of this 6840
section.6841

       (3) In all cases not described in division (A)(1) or (2) of 6842
this section, a person who is convicted of or pleads guilty to, 6843
has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or is adjudicated a 6844
delinquent child for committing a child-victim oriented offense 6845
may be classified a child-victim predator for purposes of this 6846
chapter only in accordance with division (B) or (C) of this 6847
section or, regarding delinquent children, divisions (B) and (C) 6848
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code.6849

       (B)(1)(a) Regardless of when the offense was committed, the 6850
judge who is to impose sentence on or after the effective date of 6851
this section on an offender who has been convicted of or pleaded 6852
guilty to a child-victim oriented offense shall conduct a hearing 6853
to determine whether the offender is a child-victim predator.6854

       (b) The judge who is to impose or has imposed an order of 6855
disposition upon a child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for 6856
committing on or after the effective date of this section a 6857
child-victim oriented offense shall conduct a hearing as provided 6858
in this division to determine whether the child is to be 6859
classified as a child-victim predator if either of the following 6860
applies:6861

       (i) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A) 6862
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a 6863
juvenile offender registrant.6864

       (ii) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code 6865
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under 6866
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the 6867
judge determines at that hearing that the child will be classified 6868
a juvenile offender registrant.6869

       (2) Regarding an offender, the judge shall conduct the 6870
hearing required by division (B)(1)(a) of this section prior to 6871
sentencing and, if the child-victim oriented offense is a felony 6872
and if the hearing is being conducted under division (B)(1)(a) of 6873
this section, the judge may conduct it as part of the sentencing 6874
hearing required by section 2929.19 of the Revised Code. Regarding 6875
a delinquent child, the judge may conduct the hearing required by 6876
division (B)(1)(b) of this section at the same time as, or 6877
separate from, the dispositional hearing, as specified in the 6878
applicable provision of section 2152.82 or 2152.83 of the Revised 6879
Code. The court shall give the offender or delinquent child and 6880
the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or handled the case 6881
against the delinquent child for the child-victim oriented offense 6882
notice of the date, time, and location of the hearing. At the 6883
hearing, the offender or delinquent child and the prosecutor have 6884
the same opportunities and rights as described in division (B)(2) 6885
of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code regarding sexual predator 6886
hearings.6887

       (3) In making a determination under divisions (B)(1) and (4) 6888
of this section as to whether an offender or delinquent child is a 6889
child-victim predator, the judge shall consider all relevant 6890
factors, including, but not limited to, all of the factors 6891
identified in division (B)(3) of section 2950.09 of the Revised 6892
Code regarding sexual predator hearings, except that all 6893
references in the factors so identified in that division to any 6894
"sexual offense" or "sexually oriented offense" shall be construed 6895
for purposes of this division as being references to a 6896
"child-victim oriented offense" and all references in the factors 6897
so identified to "sexual offenders" shall be construed for 6898
purposes of this division as being references to "child-victim 6899
offenders."6900

       (4) After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at 6901
the hearing conducted under division (B)(1) of this section and 6902
the factors specified in division (B)(3) of this section, the 6903
court shall determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the 6904
subject offender or delinquent child is a child-victim predator. 6905
If the court determines that the subject offender or delinquent 6906
child is not a child-victim predator, the court shall specify in 6907
the offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction that 6908
contains the sentence or in the delinquent child's dispositional 6909
order, as appropriate, that the court has determined that the 6910
offender or delinquent child is not a child-victim predator and 6911
the reason or reasons why the court determined that the subject 6912
offender or delinquent child is not a child-victim predator. If 6913
the court determines by clear and convincing evidence that the 6914
subject offender or delinquent child is a child-victim predator, 6915
the court shall specify in the offender's sentence and the 6916
judgment of conviction that contains the sentence or in the 6917
delinquent child's dispositional order, as appropriate, that the 6918
court has determined that the offender or delinquent child is a 6919
child-victim predator and shall specify that the determination was 6920
pursuant to division (B) of this section. In any case in which the 6921
child-victim oriented offense in question was committed by the6922
offender on or after the effective date of this amendment, the6923
court shall specify in the offender's sentence and judgment of6924
conviction that contains the sentence that the offender committed6925
the child-victim oriented offense on or after the effective date 6926
of this section. The offender or delinquent child and the 6927
prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or handled the case against 6928
the delinquent child for the child-victim oriented offense in 6929
question may appeal as a matter of right the court's determination 6930
under this division as to whether the offender or delinquent child 6931
is, or is not, a child-victim predator.6932

       (C)(1) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a 6933
person was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented 6934
offense, if, on and after the effective date of this section, the 6935
sexually oriented offense no longer is considered a sexually 6936
oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, 6937
if the person was not sentenced for the offense on or after 6938
January 1, 1997, and if, on or after the effective date of this 6939
section, the offender is serving a term of imprisonment in a state 6940
correctional institution, the department of rehabilitation and 6941
correction shall determine whether to recommend that the offender 6942
be adjudicated a child-victim predator. In making a determination 6943
under this division as to whether to recommend that the offender 6944
be adjudicated a child-victim predator, the department shall 6945
consider all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all 6946
of the factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this 6947
section. If the department determines that it will recommend that 6948
the offender be adjudicated a child-victim predator or determines 6949
that it will not recommend that the offender be adjudicated a 6950
child-victim predator, it immediately shall send its 6951
recommendation or determination to the court that sentenced the 6952
offender. In all cases, the department shall enter its 6953
determination and recommendation in the offender's institutional 6954
record, and the court shall proceed in accordance with division 6955
(C)(2) of this section.6956

       (2)(a) If, pursuant to division (C)(1) of this section, the 6957
department of rehabilitation and correction sends to a court a 6958
recommendation that an offender be adjudicated a child-victim 6959
predator, the court is not bound by the department's 6960
recommendation, and the court shall conduct a hearing to determine 6961
whether the offender is a child-victim predator. In any case, the 6962
court shall not make a determination that the offender is, or is 6963
not, a child-victim predator without a hearing. The court may hold 6964
the hearing and make the determination prior to the offender's 6965
release from imprisonment or at any time within one year following 6966
the offender's release from that imprisonment.6967

       (b) If, pursuant to division (C)(1) of this section, the 6968
department sends to the court a determination that it is not 6969
recommending that an offender be adjudicated a child-victim 6970
predator, the court shall not make any determination as to whether 6971
the offender is, or is not, a child-victim predator but shall 6972
determine whether the offender previously has been convicted of or 6973
pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense other than the 6974
offense in relation to which the department made its 6975
determination.6976

       The court may conduct a hearing to determine whether the 6977
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 6978
child-victim oriented offense but may make the determination 6979
without a hearing. However, if the court determines that the 6980
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to an 6981
offense of that nature, it shall not impose a requirement that the 6982
offender be subject to the community notification provisions 6983
contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code 6984
without a hearing. The court shall include in the offender's 6985
institutional record any determination made under this division as 6986
to whether the offender previously has been convicted of or 6987
pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense and whether the 6988
offender is a habitual child-victim offender.6989

       (c) Upon scheduling a hearing under division (C)(2)(a) or (b) 6990
of this section, the court shall give the offender and the 6991
prosecutor who prosecuted the offender for the child-victim 6992
oriented offense, or that prosecutor's successor in office, notice 6993
of the date, time, and place of the hearing. If the hearing is 6994
scheduled under division (C)(2)(a) of this section to determine 6995
whether the offender is a child-victim predator, it shall be 6996
conducted in the manner described in division (B)(1) of this 6997
section regarding hearings conducted under that division, and, in 6998
making a determination under this division as to whether the 6999
offender is a child-victim predator, the court shall consider all 7000
relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all of the 7001
factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section. 7002
After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at the 7003
child-victim predator hearing and the factors specified in 7004
divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section, the court shall 7005
determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the offender is 7006
a child-victim predator. If the court determines at the 7007
child-victim predator hearing that the offender is not a 7008
child-victim predator, it also shall determine whether the 7009
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 7010
child-victim oriented offense other than the offense in relation 7011
to which the hearing is being conducted.7012

       Upon making its determinations at the child-victim predator 7013
hearing, the court shall proceed as follows:7014

       (i) If the court determines that the offender is not a 7015
child-victim predator and that the offender previously has not 7016
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented 7017
offense other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is 7018
being conducted, it shall include in the offender's institutional 7019
record its determinations and the reason or reasons why it 7020
determined that the offender is not a child-victim predator.7021

       (ii) If the court determines that the offender is not a 7022
child-victim predator but that the offender previously has been 7023
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense 7024
other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is being 7025
conducted, it shall include in the offender's institutional record 7026
its determination that the offender is not a child-victim predator 7027
but is a habitual child-victim offender and the reason or reasons 7028
why it determined that the offender is not a child-victim 7029
predator, shall attach the determinations and the reason or 7030
reasons to the offender's sentence, shall specify that the 7031
determinations were made pursuant to division (C) of this section, 7032
shall provide a copy of the determinations and the reason or 7033
reasons to the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the 7034
department of rehabilitation and correction, and may impose a 7035
requirement that the offender be subject to the community 7036
notification provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 7037
of the Revised Code. The offender shall not be subject to those 7038
community notification provisions relative to the child-victim 7039
oriented offense in question if the court does not so impose the 7040
requirement described in this division. If the court imposes that 7041
requirement, the offender may appeal the judge's determination 7042
that the offender is a habitual child-victim offender.7043

       (iii) If the court determines by clear and convincing 7044
evidence that the offender is a child-victim predator, it shall 7045
enter its determination in the offender's institutional record, 7046
shall attach the determination to the offender's sentence, shall 7047
specify that the determination was made pursuant to division (C) 7048
of this section, and shall provide a copy of the determination to 7049
the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the department 7050
of rehabilitation and correction. The offender and the prosecutor 7051
may appeal as a matter of right the judge's determination under 7052
this division as to whether the offender is, or is not, a 7053
child-victim predator.7054

       If the hearing is scheduled under division (C)(2)(b) of this 7055
section to determine whether the offender previously has been 7056
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense 7057
or whether to subject the offender to the community notification 7058
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the 7059
Revised Code, upon making the determination, the court shall 7060
attach the determination or determinations to the offender's 7061
sentence, shall provide a copy to the offender, to the prosecuting 7062
attorney, and to the department of rehabilitation and correction 7063
and may impose a requirement that the offender be subject to the 7064
community notification provisions. The offender shall not be 7065
subject to the community notification provisions relative to the 7066
child-victim oriented offense in question if the court does not so 7067
impose the requirement described in this division. If the court 7068
imposes that requirement, the offender may appeal the judge's 7069
determination that the offender is a habitual child-victim 7070
offender.7071

       (3) Divisions (C)(1) and (2) of this section do not require a 7072
court to conduct a new hearing under those divisions for any 7073
offender regarding a child-victim oriented offense if, prior to 7074
the effective date of this section, the court previously conducted 7075
a hearing under divisions (C)(1) and (2) of section 2950.09 of the 7076
Revised Code regarding that offense, while it formerly was 7077
classified a sexually oriented offense, to determine whether the 7078
offender was a sexual predator. Divisions (C)(1) and (2) of this 7079
section do not require a court to conduct a hearing under those 7080
divisions for any offender regarding a child-victim oriented 7081
offense if, prior to the effective date of this section and 7082
pursuant to divisions (C)(1) and (2) of section 2950.09 of the 7083
Revised Code, the department of rehabilitation and correction 7084
recommended that the offender be adjudicated a sexual predator 7085
regarding that offense, while it formerly was classified a 7086
sexually oriented offense, and the court denied the recommendation 7087
and determined that the offender was not a sexual predator without 7088
a hearing, provided that this provision does not apply if the 7089
child-victim oriented offense in question was an offense described 7090
in division (D)(1)(c) of section 2950.01 of the Revised Code.7091

       (D)(1) Division (D) of this section does not apply to any 7092
person who has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 7093
child-victim oriented offense. Division (D) of this section 7094
applies only to delinquent children as provided in Chapter 2152. 7095
of the Revised Code. A person who has been adjudicated a 7096
delinquent child for committing a child-victim oriented offense 7097
and who has been classified by a juvenile court judge a juvenile 7098
offender registrant or, if applicable, additionally has been 7099
determined by a juvenile court judge to be a child-victim predator 7100
or habitual child-victim offender, may petition the adjudicating 7101
court for a reclassification or declassification pursuant to 7102
section 2152.85 of the Revised Code.7103

       A judge who is reviewing a child-victim predator 7104
determination for a delinquent child under section 2152.84 or 7105
2152.85 of the Revised Code shall comply with this section. At the 7106
hearing, the judge shall consider all relevant evidence and 7107
information, including, but not limited to, the factors set forth 7108
in division (B)(3) of this section. The judge shall not enter a 7109
determination that the delinquent child no longer is a 7110
child-victim predator unless the judge determines by clear and 7111
convincing evidence that the delinquent child is unlikely to 7112
commit a child-victim oriented offense in the future. If the judge 7113
enters a determination under this division that the delinquent 7114
child no longer is a child-victim predator, the judge shall notify 7115
the bureau of criminal identification and investigation of the 7116
determination and shall include in the notice a statement of the 7117
reason or reasons why it determined that the delinquent child no 7118
longer is a child-victim predator. Upon receipt of the 7119
notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff with 7120
whom the delinquent child most recently registered under section 7121
2950.04 or 2950.05 of the Revised Code of the determination that 7122
the offender no longer is a child-victim predator.7123

       (2) If an offender who has been convicted of or pleaded 7124
guilty to a child-victim oriented offense is classified a 7125
child-victim predator pursuant to division (A) of this section or 7126
has been adjudicated a child-victim predator relative to the 7127
offense as described in division (B) or (C) of this section, 7128
subject to division (F) of this section, the classification or 7129
adjudication of the offender as a child-victim predator is 7130
permanent and continues in effect until the offender's death, and 7131
in no case shall the classification or adjudication be removed or 7132
terminated.7133

       (E)(1) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a 7134
person was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a 7135
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense, if, 7136
on and after the effective date of this section, the sexually 7137
oriented offense no longer is considered a sexually oriented 7138
offense but instead is a child-victim oriented offense, if, prior 7139
to the effective date of this section, a judge determined that the 7140
offender or delinquent child was a habitual sex offender, and if 7141
one or more of the offenses that was the basis of the offender or 7142
delinquent child being a habitual sex offender remains on and 7143
after the effective date of this section a sexually oriented 7144
offense, notwithstanding the redesignation of the offense as 7145
described in this division, the determination and classification 7146
of that person as a habitual sex offender remains valid and in 7147
effect on and after the effective date of this section.7148

       (2) If, prior to the effective date of this section, a person 7149
was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a delinquent 7150
child for committing a sexually oriented offense, if, on and after 7151
the effective date of this section, the sexually oriented offense 7152
no longer is considered a sexually oriented offense but instead is 7153
a child-victim oriented offense, if, prior to the effective date 7154
of this section, a judge determined that the offender or 7155
delinquent child was a habitual sex offender, and if none of the 7156
offenses that was the basis of the offender or delinquent child 7157
being a habitual sex offender remains on and after the effective 7158
date of this section a sexually oriented offense, on and after the 7159
effective date of this section, the offender or delinquent child 7160
automatically is classified a habitual child-victim offender.7161

       (3) If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to 7162
committing a child-victim oriented offense and is to be sentenced 7163
for the offense on or after the effective date of this section, 7164
the judge who is to impose sentence on the offender shall 7165
determine, prior to sentencing, whether the offender previously 7166
has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a 7167
delinquent child for committing, a child-victim oriented offense 7168
and is a habitual child-victim offender. The judge who is to 7169
impose or has imposed an order of disposition on or after the 7170
effective date of this section upon a child who is adjudicated a 7171
delinquent child for committing a child-victim oriented offense 7172
shall determine, prior to entering the order classifying the 7173
delinquent child a juvenile child-victim offender registrant, 7174
whether the delinquent child previously has been convicted of or 7175
pleaded guilty to, or adjudicated a delinquent child for 7176
committing, a child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual 7177
child-victim offender, if either of the following applies:7178

       (a) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A) 7179
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a 7180
juvenile offender registrant.7181

       (b) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code 7182
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under 7183
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the 7184
judge determines at that hearing that the child will be classified 7185
a juvenile offender registrant.7186

       (4) If, under division (E)(3) of this section, the judge 7187
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has 7188
not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a 7189
delinquent child for committing, a child-victim oriented offense 7190
or that the offender otherwise does not satisfy the criteria for 7191
being a habitual child-victim offender, the judge shall specify in 7192
the offender's sentence or in the order classifying the delinquent 7193
child a juvenile child-victim offender registrant that the judge 7194
has determined that the offender or delinquent child is not a 7195
habitual child-victim offender. If the judge determines that the 7196
offender or delinquent child previously has been convicted of or 7197
pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a delinquent child for 7198
committing, a child-victim oriented offense and that the offender 7199
satisfies all other criteria for being a habitual child-victim 7200
offender, the judge shall specify in the offender's sentence and 7201
the judgment of conviction that contains the sentence or in the 7202
order classifying the delinquent child a juvenile offender 7203
registrant that the judge has determined that the offender or 7204
delinquent child is a habitual child-victim offender and regarding 7205
an offender who committed the most recent child-victim oriented 7206
offense prior to the effective date of this section or a 7207
delinquent child, may impose a requirement in that sentence and 7208
judgment of conviction or in that order that the offender or 7209
delinquent child be subject to the community notification 7210
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the 7211
Revised Code. Unless the habitual child-victim offender also has 7212
been adjudicated a child-victim predator relative to the 7213
child-victim oriented offense in question, or the habitual7214
child-victim offender was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a 7215
child-victim oriented offense that was committed on or after the 7216
effective date of this section the offender or delinquent child 7217
shall be subject to those community notification provisions only 7218
if the court imposes the requirement described in this division in 7219
the offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction or in the 7220
order classifying the delinquent child a juvenile offender 7221
registrant. If the court determines pursuant to this division or 7222
division (C)(2) of this section that an offender is a habitual 7223
child-victim offender, the determination is permanent and 7224
continues in effect until the offender's death, and in no case 7225
shall the determination be removed or terminated.7226

       If a court in another state, a federal court, military court, 7227
or Indian tribal court, or a court in any nation other than the 7228
United States, determines a person is a habitual child-victim 7229
offender in that jurisdiction, the person is considered to be 7230
determined a habitual child-victim offender in this state. If the 7231
court in the other state, the federal court, military court, or 7232
Indian tribal court, or the court in any nation other than the 7233
United States subjects the habitual child-victim offender to 7234
community notification regarding the person's place of residence, 7235
the person, as much as is practicable, is subject to the community 7236
notification provisions regarding the person's place of residence 7237
that are contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised 7238
Code, unless the court that so subjected the person to community 7239
notification determines that the person no longer is subject to 7240
community notification.7241

       (F)(1) An offender or delinquent child classified a 7242
child-victim predator may petition the court of common pleas or, 7243
for a delinquent child, the juvenile court of the county in which 7244
the offender or delinquent child resides or temporarily is 7245
domiciled to enter a determination that the offender or delinquent 7246
child is not an adjudicated child-victim predator in this state 7247
for purposes of the registration and other requirements of this 7248
chapter or the community notification provisions contained in 7249
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code if all of the 7250
following apply:7251

       (a) The offender or delinquent child was convicted, pleaded 7252
guilty, or adjudicated a delinquent child in a court of another 7253
state, in a federal court, a military court, or Indian tribal 7254
court, or in a court of any nation other than the United States 7255
for committing a child-victim oriented offense.7256

       (b) As a result of the conviction, plea of guilty, or 7257
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section, the 7258
offender or delinquent child is required under the law of the 7259
jurisdiction under which the offender or delinquent child was 7260
convicted, pleaded guilty, or was adjudicated to register as a 7261
child-victim offender until the offender's or delinquent child's 7262
death.7263

       (c) The offender or delinquent child was automatically 7264
classified a child-victim predator under division (A) of this 7265
section in relation to the conviction, guilty plea, or 7266
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section.7267

       (2) The court may enter a determination that the offender or 7268
delinquent child filing the petition described in division (F)(1) 7269
of this section is not an adjudicated child-victim predator in 7270
this state for purposes of the registration and other requirements 7271
of this chapter or the community notification provisions contained 7272
in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code only if the 7273
offender or delinquent child proves by clear and convincing 7274
evidence that the requirement of the other jurisdiction that the 7275
offender or delinquent child register as a child-victim offender 7276
until the offender's or delinquent child's death is not 7277
substantially similar to a classification as a child-victim 7278
predator for purposes of this chapter. If the court enters a 7279
determination that the offender or delinquent child is not an 7280
adjudicated child-victim predator in this state for those 7281
purposes, the court shall include in the determination a statement 7282
of the reason or reasons why it so determined.7283

person is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing either a 7288
sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 7289
sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense and 7290

this section, if the offender or delinquent child registers with a7295
sheriff pursuant to section 2950.04, 2950.041, or 2950.05 of the7296
Revised Code, and if the victim of the sexually oriented offense 7297
or child-victim oriented offense has made a request in accordance 7298
with rules adopted by the attorney general that specifies that the7299
victim would like to be provided the notices described in this7300

and residencethe address or addresses of the offender's 7305
residence, school, institution of higher education, or place of 7306
employment, as applicable, or the delinquent child's name and 7307
residence address or addresses. The sheriff shall provide the7308

been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, either a sexually oriented7314
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 7315
offense or a child-victim oriented offense or a person is 7316

oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually 7318

this section, if the offender or delinquent child registers with a7324
sheriff pursuant to section 2950.04, 2950.041, or 2950.05 of the 7325
Revised Code, if the victim of the sexually oriented offense or 7326
child-victim oriented offense has made a request in accordance7327
with rules adopted by the attorney general that specifies that the7328
victim would like to be provided the notices described in this7329
section, and if the offender or delinquent child notifies the7330
sheriff of a change of residence, school, institution of higher 7331
education, or place of employment address or the delinquent child 7332
notifies the sheriff of a change of residence address pursuant to7333
section 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the sheriff shall notify the 7334
victim of the sexually oriented offense or child-victim oriented 7335
offense, in writing, that the offender's or delinquent child's 7336

that are provided in sections 2929.14 to 2929.18 of the Revised9807
Code. The sentence shall not impose an unnecessary burden on state 9808
or local government resources.9809

       If the offender is eligible to be sentenced to community9810
control sanctions, the court shall consider the appropriateness of9811
imposing a financial sanction pursuant to section 2929.18 of the9812
Revised Code or a sanction of community service pursuant to9813
section 2929.17 of the Revised Code as the sole sanction for the9814
offense. Except as otherwise provided in this division, if the9815
court is required to impose a mandatory prison term for the9816
offense for which sentence is being imposed, the court also may9817
impose a financial sanction pursuant to section 2929.18 of the9818
Revised Code but may not impose any additional sanction or9819
combination of sanctions under section 2929.16 or 2929.17 of the9820
Revised Code.9821

       If the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree felony9822
OVI offense or for a third degree felony OVI offense, in addition9823
to the mandatory term of local incarceration or the mandatory9824
prison term required for the offense by division (G)(1) or (2) of9825

       (2) For a third or fourth degree felony OVI offense for which9834

(G) of this section, in sentencing an offender for a felony of the9839
fourth or fifth degree, the sentencing court shall determine9840

the offender previously was convicted of an offense that caused9849
physical harm to a person.9850

       (d) The offender held a public office or position of trust9851
and the offense related to that office or position; the offender's9852
position obliged the offender to prevent the offense or to bring9853
those committing it to justice; or the offender's professional9854
reputation or position facilitated the offense or was likely to9855
influence the future conduct of others.9856

       (e) The offender committed the offense for hire or as part of 9857
an organized criminal activity.9858

       (f) The offense is a sex offense that is a fourth or fifth9859
degree felony violation of section 2907.03, 2907.04, 2907.05,9860

from custody on a bond or personal recognizance.9867

       (i) The offender committed the offense while in possession of 9868
a firearm.9869

       (2)(a) If the court makes a finding described in division9870
(B)(1)(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), or (i) of this9871
section and if the court, after considering the factors set forth9872
in section 2929.12 of the Revised Code, finds that a prison term9873
is consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set9874
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code and finds that the9875
offender is not amenable to an available community control9876
sanction, the court shall impose a prison term upon the offender.9877

       (b) Except as provided in division (E), (F), or (G) of this9878
section, if the court does not make a finding described in9879
division (B)(1)(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), or (i) of9880
this section and if the court, after considering the factors set9881
forth in section 2929.12 of the Revised Code, finds that a9882
community control sanction or combination of community control9883
sanctions is consistent with the purposes and principles of9884
sentencing set forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code, the9885
court shall impose a community control sanction or combination of9886
community control sanctions upon the offender.9887

       (C) Except as provided in division (E), (F), or (G) of this9888
section, in determining whether to impose a prison term as a9889
sanction for a felony of the third degree or a felony drug offense9890
that is a violation of a provision of Chapter 2925. of the Revised9891
Code and that is specified as being subject to this division for9892
purposes of sentencing, the sentencing court shall comply with the9893
purposes and principles of sentencing under section 2929.11 of the9894
Revised Code and with section 2929.12 of the Revised Code.9895

       (D) Except as provided in division (E) or (F) of this9896
section, for a felony of the first or second degree and for a9897
felony drug offense that is a violation of any provision of9898
Chapter 2925., 3719., or 4729. of the Revised Code for which a9899
presumption in favor of a prison term is specified as being9900
applicable, it is presumed that a prison term is necessary in9901
order to comply with the purposes and principles of sentencing9902
under section 2929.11 of the Revised Code. Notwithstanding the9903
presumption established under this division, the sentencing court9904
may impose a community control sanction or a combination of9905
community control sanctions instead of a prison term on an9906
offender for a felony of the first or second degree or for a9907
felony drug offense that is a violation of any provision of9908
Chapter 2925., 3719., or 4729. of the Revised Code for which a9909
presumption in favor of a prison term is specified as being9910
applicable if it makes both of the following findings:9911

       (1) A community control sanction or a combination of9912
community control sanctions would adequately punish the offender9913
and protect the public from future crime, because the applicable9914
factors under section 2929.12 of the Revised Code indicating a9915
lesser likelihood of recidivism outweigh the applicable factors9916
under that section indicating a greater likelihood of recidivism.9917

       (2) A community control sanction or a combination of9918
community control sanctions would not demean the seriousness of9919
the offense, because one or more factors under section 2929.12 of9920
the Revised Code that indicate that the offender's conduct was9921
less serious than conduct normally constituting the offense are9922
applicable, and they outweigh the applicable factors under that9923
section that indicate that the offender's conduct was more serious9924
than conduct normally constituting the offense.9925

       (E)(1) Except as provided in division (F) of this section,9926
for any drug offense that is a violation of any provision of9927
Chapter 2925. of the Revised Code and that is a felony of the9928
third, fourth, or fifth degree, the applicability of a presumption9929
under division (D) of this section in favor of a prison term or of9930
division (B) or (C) of this section in determining whether to9931
impose a prison term for the offense shall be determined as9932
specified in section 2925.02, 2925.03, 2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.06,9933
2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, or 2925.37 of the9934
Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the violation.9935

       (2) If an offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to9936
a felony violates the conditions of a community control sanction9937
imposed for the offense solely by reason of producing positive9938
results on a drug test, the court, as punishment for the violation9939
of the sanction, shall not order that the offender be imprisoned9940
unless the court determines on the record either of the following:9941

       (a) The offender had been ordered as a sanction for the9942
felony to participate in a drug treatment program, in a drug9943
education program, or in narcotics anonymous or a similar program,9944
and the offender continued to use illegal drugs after a reasonable9945
period of participation in the program.9946

       (b) The imprisonment of the offender for the violation is9947
consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set9948
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code.9949

       (F) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, the 9950
court shall impose a prison term or terms under sections 2929.02 9951
to 2929.06, section 2929.14, or section 2971.03 of the Revised 9952
Code and except as specifically provided in section 2929.20 or 9953
2967.191 of the Revised Code or when parole is authorized for the 9954
offense under section 2967.13 of the Revised Code shall not reduce 9955
the terms pursuant to section 2929.20, section 2967.193, or any 9956
other provision of Chapter 2967. or Chapter 5120. of the Revised 9957
Code for any of the following offenses:9958

       (1) Aggravated murder when death is not imposed or murder;9959

       (2) Any rape, regardless of whether force was involved and9960
regardless of the age of the victim, or an attempt to commit rape 9961

imprisonment or life imprisonment without parole for the rape;9964

       (3) Gross sexual imposition or sexual battery, if the victim9965
is under thirteen years of age, if the offender previously was9966

battery, and if the victim of the previous offense was under9969
thirteen years of age;9970

       (4) A felony violation of section 2903.04, 2903.06, 2903.08,9971

2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, 2925.37, 3719.99, or9976
4729.99 of the Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the9977
violation, requires the imposition of a mandatory prison term;9978

       (6) Any offense that is a first or second degree felony and9979

guilty to aggravated murder, murder, any first or second degree9982
felony, or an offense under an existing or former law of this9983
state, another state, or the United States that is or was9984
substantially equivalent to one of those offenses;9985

any offense that is listed in division (DD)(2)(a)(i) or (ii) of9989
section 2929.01 of the Revised Code;9990

the Revised Code, that is a felony, if the offender had a firearm 9992
on or about the offender's person or under the offender's control9993
while committing the felony, with respect to a portion of the9994

       (11) Any sexually violent offense for which the offender also 10006

section, if the offender is an officer or employee of the10013
department of rehabilitation and correction.10014

       (G) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, if10015
an offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree felony OVI10016
offense or for a third degree felony OVI offense, the court shall10017
impose upon the offender a mandatory term of local incarceration10018
or a mandatory prison term in accordance with the following:10019

       (1) If the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree10020
felony OVI offense, the court may impose upon the offender a10021
mandatory term of local incarceration of sixty days or one hundred10022
twenty days as specified in division (G)(1)(d) of section 4511.1910023
of the Revised Code. The court shall not reduce the term pursuant10024
to section 2929.20, 2967.193, or any other provision of the10025
Revised Code. The court that imposes a mandatory term of local10026
incarceration under this division shall specify whether the term10027
is to be served in a jail, a community-based correctional10028
facility, a halfway house, or an alternative residential facility,10029
and the offender shall serve the term in the type of facility10030

prison term of sixty days or one hundred twenty days as specified10042
in division (G)(1)(e) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code. The10043
court shall not reduce the term pursuant to section 2929.20,10044
2967.193, or any other provision of the Revised Code. In no case10045
shall an offender who once has been sentenced to a mandatory term10046
of local incarceration pursuant to division (G)(1) of this section10047
for a fourth degree felony OVI offense be sentenced to another10048
mandatory term of local incarceration under that division for any10049
violation of division (A) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code.10050
The court shall not sentence the offender to a community control10051

department of rehabilitation and correction may place an offender10053
sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division in an 10054
intensive program prison established pursuant to section 5120.033 10055
of the Revised Code if the department gave the sentencing judge 10056
prior notice of its intent to place the offender in an intensive 10057
program prison established under that section and if the judge did 10058
not notify the department that the judge disapproved the10059
placement. Upon the establishment of the initial intensive program 10060
prison pursuant to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code that is 10061
privately operated and managed by a contractor pursuant to a 10062
contract entered into under section 9.06 of the Revised Code, both 10063
of the following apply:10064

       (a) The department of rehabilitation and correction shall10065
make a reasonable effort to ensure that a sufficient number of10066
offenders sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division10067
are placed in the privately operated and managed prison so that10068
the privately operated and managed prison has full occupancy.10069

       (b) Unless the privately operated and managed prison has full10070
occupancy, the department of rehabilitation and correction shall 10071
not place any offender sentenced to a mandatory prison term under 10072
this division in any intensive program prison established pursuant10073
to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code other than the privately 10074
operated and managed prison.10075

       (H) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 10076
offense committed on or after January 1, 1997, the judge shall10077
require the offender to submit to a DNA specimen collection10078
procedure pursuant to section 2901.07 of the Revised Code if10079
either of the following applies:10080

       (1) The offense was a sexually violent offense, and the10081
offender also was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually10082
violent predator specification that was included in the10083
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the10084
sexually violent offense.10085

       (2) The judge imposing sentence for the sexually oriented10086
offense determines pursuant to division (B) of section 2950.09 of10087
the Revised Code that the offender is a sexual predator.10088

       (I) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented 10089
offense that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 10090
offense or for a child-victim oriented offense committed on or 10091
after January 1, 1997, the judge shall include in the sentence a 10092
summary of the offender's duty to register pursuant to section10093
duties imposed under sections 2950.04 of the Revised Code, the10094
offender's duty to provide notice of a change in residence address10095
and register the new residence address pursuant to section, 10096
2950.041, 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the offender's duty to 10097
periodically verify the offender's current residence address 10098
pursuant to section, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code, and the10099
duration of the duties. The judge shall inform the offender, at 10100
the time of sentencing, of those duties and of their duration and, 10101
if required under division (A)(2) of section 2950.03 of the 10102
Revised Code, shall perform the duties specified in that section.10103

       (J)(1) Except as provided in division (J)(2) of this section, 10104
when considering sentencing factors under this section in relation 10105
to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an attempt 10106
to commit an offense in violation of section 2923.02 of the 10107
Revised Code, the sentencing court shall consider the factors10108
applicable to the felony category of the violation of section10109
2923.02 of the Revised Code instead of the factors applicable to10110
the felony category of the offense attempted.10111

       (2) When considering sentencing factors under this section in 10112
relation to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an 10113
attempt to commit a drug abuse offense for which the penalty is10114
determined by the amount or number of unit doses of the controlled10115
substance involved in the drug abuse offense, the sentencing court10116
shall consider the factors applicable to the felony category that10117
the drug abuse offense attempted would be if that drug abuse10118
offense had been committed and had involved an amount or number of10119
unit doses of the controlled substance that is within the next10120
lower range of controlled substance amounts than was involved in10121
the attempt.10122

       (K) As used in this section, "drug abuse offense" has the10123
same meaning as in section 2925.01 of the Revised Code.10124

       Sec. 2929.19.  (A)(1) The court shall hold a sentencing10125
hearing before imposing a sentence under this chapter upon an10126
offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a felony and10127
before resentencing an offender who was convicted of or pleaded10128
guilty to a felony and whose case was remanded pursuant to section10129
2953.07 or 2953.08 of the Revised Code. At the hearing, the10130
offender, the prosecuting attorney, the victim or the victim's10131
representative in accordance with section 2930.14 of the Revised10132
Code, and, with the approval of the court, any other person may10133
present information relevant to the imposition of sentence in the10134
case. The court shall inform the offender of the verdict of the10135
jury or finding of the court and ask the offender whether the10136
offender has anything to say as to why sentence should not be10137
imposed upon the offender.10138

       (2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, before10139
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a10140
sexually oriented offense that was committed on or after January10141
1, 1997, that is not a registration-exempt sexually oriented 10142
offense, and that is not a sexually violent offense, and before10143
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a10144
sexually violent offense committed on or after January 1, 1997,10145
and who was not charged with a sexually violent predator10146
specification in the indictment, count in the indictment, or10147
information charging the sexually violent offense, and before 10148
imposing sentence on or after May 7, 2002, on an offender who is 10149
being sentenced for a sexually oriented offense that is not a 10150
registration-exempt sexually oriented offense and who was 10151
acquitted of a sexually violent predator specification included in 10152
the indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging 10153
the sexually oriented offense, the court shall conduct a hearing 10154
in accordance with division (B) of section 2950.09 of the Revised 10155
Code to determine whether the offender is a sexual predator. The 10156
court shall not conduct a hearing under that division if the 10157
offender is being sentenced for a sexually violent offense and, if10158
a sexually violent predator specification was included in the10159
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging the10160
sexually violent offense, and if the offender was convicted of or 10161
pleaded guilty to that sexually violent predator specification. 10162
Before imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for 10163
a sexually oriented offense that is not a registration-exempt 10164
sexually oriented offense, the court also shall comply with 10165
division (E) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code.10166

       Before imposing sentence on or after the effective date of 10167
this amendment on an offender who is being sentenced for a 10168
child-victim oriented offense, regardless of when the offense was 10169
committed, the court shall conduct a hearing in accordance with 10170
division (B) of section 2950.091 of the Revised Code to determine 10171
whether the offender is a child-victim predator. Before imposing 10172
sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a child-victim 10173
oriented offense, the court also shall comply with division (E) of 10174
section 2950.091 of the Revised Code.10175

       (B)(1) At the sentencing hearing, the court, before imposing10176
sentence, shall consider the record, any information presented at10177
the hearing by any person pursuant to division (A) of this10178
section, and, if one was prepared, the presentence investigation10179
report made pursuant to section 2951.03 of the Revised Code or10180
Criminal Rule 32.2, and any victim impact statement made pursuant10181
to section 2947.051 of the Revised Code.10182

       (2) The court shall impose a sentence and shall make a10183
finding that gives its reasons for selecting the sentence imposed10184
in any of the following circumstances:10185

       (a) Unless the offense is a sexually violent offense for10186
which the court is required to impose sentence pursuant to10187
division (G) of section 2929.14 of the Revised Code, if it imposes10188
