time and in the manner specified in division (B)(3)(b)
of this | 195 |
section. Prior to the
child's attainment of eighteen years of
age, | 196 |
all originals and
copies of the photographs and records shall
be | 197 |
retained and shall
be kept in a file separate and apart from
all | 198 |
photographs taken
of adults. During the period of retention
of the | 199 |
fingerprints,
all originals and copies of them may be
maintained | 200 |
in the files
of fingerprints taken of adults. Upon the
child's | 201 |
attainment of
eighteen years of age, all originals and
copies of | 202 |
the
fingerprints, photographs, and records shall be
disposed of as | 203 |
follows: | 204 |
(ii) If the juvenile judge does not issue and has not | 210 |
previously issued an order that specifies a manner of disposition | 211 |

adult files, photographs, and records, the law enforcement
agency, | 213 |

taken into custody for, or under investigation for
the commission | 218 |

maintained in the files of | 222 |
fingerprints taken of adults or if
pursuant to division | 223 |
(B)(3)(b)(ii) of this section
the agency transfers the originals | 224 |
and
copies of any fingerprints not maintained in adult files, | 225 |
photographs, or records to the files that are used for the | 226 |

arrested for, otherwise taken into custody for, or under | 228 |
investigation for the commission of a criminal offense, the | 229 |
originals and copies of the fingerprints, photographs, and
records | 230 |
may be maintained, used, and released after they are
maintained in | 231 |
the adult files or after the transfer as if the
fingerprints and | 232 |
photographs had been taken of, and as if the
records pertained to, | 233 |
an adult who was arrested for, otherwise
taken into custody for, | 234 |
or under investigation for the
commission of a criminal offense. | 235 |
(4) If a sealing or expungement order issued under section | 236 |

records that are subject to

sealed or destroyed in
accordance with
the order. | 247 |
(5) All fingerprints of a child, photographs of a child, | 248 |
records of an arrest or custody of a child, and copies delivered | 249 |
to a juvenile court in accordance with division (B)(1), (2), or | 250 |
(3) of this section shall be destroyed by the court, provided | 251 |
that,
if a complaint is filed against the child in
relation to any | 252 |
act to which the records pertain, the court shall maintain all | 253 |
records of an arrest or custody of a
child so delivered for at | 254 |
least three years after the final
disposition of the case or after | 255 |
the case becomes inactive. | 256 |
(b) If a child who is the subject of photographs or | 265 |

of an act that would be an offense, other than a traffic

and all records of the arrest or custody of the child | 272 |
that is the
basis of the taking of the fingerprints or | 273 |
photographs, that are
retained pursuant to division (B) of this | 274 |
section and not
delivered to a juvenile court shall be kept in a | 275 |
file separate
and apart from fingerprints, photographs, and arrest | 276 |
and custody
records of children who have not been adjudicated a | 277 |
delinquent
child for the commission of an act that would be an | 278 |

committed by an adult and have not been convicted of or pleaded | 280 |
guilty to a criminal offense other than a traffic
offense or a | 281 |
minor misdemeanor. | 282 |
(1) During the initial thirty-day period of retention, | 291 |
originals and copies of fingerprints and photographs of a child, | 292 |
and records of the arrest or custody of a child, shall be used, | 293 |
prior to the filing of a complaint or information against or the | 294 |
obtaining of an indictment of the child in relation
to the act for | 295 |
which the fingerprints and photographs were
originally obtained or | 296 |
taken, only for the investigation of that
act and shall be | 297 |
released, prior to the filing of the complaint,
only to a court | 298 |
that would have jurisdiction of the child's case
under this | 299 |
chapter. Subsequent to the filing of a complaint or information
or | 300 |
the obtaining of an indictment,
originals and copies of | 301 |
fingerprints and photographs of a child,
and records of the arrest | 302 |
or custody of a child, shall be used or
released during the | 303 |
initial thirty-day period of retention only
as provided in | 304 |

(2) The appropriate public office or agency shall immediately | 408 |
deliver all original records at that public office or agency | 409 |
pertaining to a juvenile to the court, if the person was arrested | 410 |
or taken into custody for allegedly committing a delinquent or | 411 |
unruly act, no complaint was filed against the person with respect | 412 |
to the commission of the act pursuant to section 2151.27 of the | 413 |
Revised Code, and the person was not brought before or referred to | 414 |
the court for the commission of the act. The records delivered to | 415 |
the court as required under this division shall not include | 416 |
fingerprints, DNA specimens, and DNA records described under | 417 |
division (A)(3) of section 2151.357 of the Revised Code. | 418 |
(C)(1) The juvenile court shall consider the sealing of | 419 |
records pertaining to a juvenile upon the court's own motion or | 420 |
upon the application of a person if the person has been | 421 |
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing an act other than a | 422 |
violation of section 2903.01, 2903.02, 2907.02, 2907.03, or | 423 |
2907.05 of the Revised Code, an unruly child, or a juvenile | 424 |
traffic offender and if, at the time of the motion or application, | 425 |
the person is not under the jurisdiction of the court in relation | 426 |
to a complaint alleging the person to be a delinquent child. The | 427 |
motion or application may be made at any time after two years | 428 |
after the later of the following: | 429 |
(ii) If the prosecuting attorney does not file a response | 452 |
with the court or if the prosecuting attorney files a response but | 453 |
indicates that the prosecuting attorney does not object to the | 454 |
sealing of the records, the court may order the records of the | 455 |
person that are under consideration to be sealed without | 456 |
conducting a hearing on the motion or application. If the court | 457 |
decides in its discretion to conduct a hearing on the motion or | 458 |
application, the court shall conduct the hearing within thirty | 459 |
days after making that decision and shall give notice, by regular | 460 |
mail, of the date, time, and location of the hearing to the | 461 |
prosecuting attorney and to the person who is the subject of the | 462 |
records under consideration. | 463 |
(B) Except as provided in division (D) of this section, an | 555 |
order to seal under section 2151.356 of the Revised Code applies | 556 |
to every public office or agency that has a record relating to the | 557 |
case, regardless of whether it receives notice of the hearing on | 558 |
the sealing of the record or a copy of the order. Except as | 559 |
provided in division (D) of this section, upon the written request | 560 |
of a person whose record has been sealed and the presentation of a | 561 |
copy of the order and compliance with division (A)(3) of this | 562 |
section, a public office or agency shall expunge its record | 563 |
relating to the case, except a record of the adjudication or | 564 |
arrest or taking into custody that is maintained for compiling | 565 |
statistical data and that does not contain any reference to the | 566 |
person who is the subject of the order. | 567 |
(D) Notwithstanding any provision of this section that | 586 |
requires otherwise, a board of education of a city, local, | 587 |
exempted village, or joint vocational school district that | 588 |
maintains records of an individual who has been permanently | 589 |
excluded under sections 3301.121 and 3313.662 of the Revised Code | 590 |
is permitted to maintain records regarding an adjudication that | 591 |
the individual is a delinquent child that was used as the basis | 592 |
for the individual's permanent exclusion, regardless of a court | 593 |
order to seal the record. An order issued under section 2151.356 | 594 |
of the Revised Code to seal the record of an adjudication that an | 595 |
individual is a delinquent child does not revoke the adjudication | 596 |
order of the superintendent of public instruction to permanently | 597 |
exclude the individual who is the subject of the sealing order. An | 598 |
order to seal the record of an adjudication that an individual is | 599 |
a delinquent child may be presented to a district superintendent | 600 |
as evidence to support the contention that the superintendent | 601 |
should recommend that the permanent exclusion of the individual | 602 |
who is the subject of the sealing order be revoked. Except as | 603 |
otherwise authorized by this division and sections 3301.121 and | 604 |
3313.662 of the Revised Code, any school employee in possession of | 605 |
or having access to the sealed adjudication records of an | 606 |
individual that were the basis of a permanent exclusion of the | 607 |
individual is subject to division (F) of this section. | 608 |
(F) No officer or employee of the state or any of its | 634 |
political subdivisions shall knowingly release, disseminate, or | 635 |
make available for any purpose involving employment, bonding, | 636 |
licensing, or education to any person or to any department, | 637 |
agency, or other instrumentality of the state or of any of its | 638 |
political subdivisions any information or other data concerning | 639 |
any arrest, taking into custody, complaint, indictment, | 640 |
information, trial, hearing, adjudication, or correctional | 641 |
supervision, the records of which have been sealed pursuant to | 642 |
section 2151.356 of the Revised Code and the release, | 643 |
dissemination, or making available of which is not expressly | 644 |
permitted by this section. Whoever violates this division is | 645 |
guilty of divulging confidential information, a misdemeanor of the | 646 |
fourth degree. | 647 |
(H) The judgment rendered by the court under this chapter | 656 |
shall not impose any of the civil disabilities ordinarily imposed | 657 |
by conviction of a crime in that the child is not a criminal by | 658 |
reason of the adjudication, and no child shall be charged with or | 659 |
convicted of a crime in any court except as provided by this | 660 |
chapter. The disposition of a child under the judgment rendered or | 661 |
any evidence given in court shall not operate to disqualify a | 662 |
child in any future civil service examination, appointment, or | 663 |
application. Evidence of a judgment rendered and the disposition | 664 |
of a child under the judgment is not admissible to impeach the | 665 |
credibility of the child in any action or proceeding. Otherwise, | 666 |
the disposition of a child under the judgment rendered or any | 667 |
evidence given in court is admissible as evidence for or against | 668 |
the child in any action or proceeding in any court in accordance | 669 |
with the Rules of Evidence and also may be considered by any court | 670 |
as to the matter of sentence or to the granting of probation, and | 671 |
a court may consider the judgment rendered and the disposition of | 672 |
a child under that judgment for purposes of determining whether | 673 |
the child, for a future criminal conviction or guilty plea, is a | 674 |
repeat violent offender, as defined in section 2929.01 of the | 675 |
Revised Code. | 676 |
(b) If the prosecuting attorney does not file a response with | 699 |
the court or if the prosecuting attorney files a response but | 700 |
indicates that the prosecuting attorney does not object to the | 701 |
expungement of the records, the court may order the records of the | 702 |
person that are under consideration to be expunged without | 703 |
conducting a hearing on the application. If the court decides in | 704 |
its discretion to conduct a hearing on the application, the court | 705 |
shall conduct the hearing within thirty days after making that | 706 |
decision and shall give notice, by regular mail, of the date, | 707 |
time, and location of the hearing to the prosecuting attorney and | 708 |
to the person who is the subject of the records under | 709 |
consideration. | 710 |
Sec. 2151.357. Sec. 2151.362. (A)(1) In the manner prescribed by | 745 |
division (C)(1) or (2)
of section 3313.64 of the Revised Code, as | 746 |
applicable, the court, at the
time of
making any order that | 747 |
removes a child from the child's own
home or
that vests legal or | 748 |
permanent custody of the child in a person
other
than the child's | 749 |
parent
or a government agency, shall
determine the school
district | 750 |
that is to bear the cost of
educating the child. The
court shall | 751 |
make the
determination a
part of the order that provides for
the | 752 |
child's placement or
commitment. That school district shall bear | 753 |
the cost of educating the child unless and until the court | 754 |
modifies its order pursuant to division (A)(2) of this section. | 755 |
(2) If, while the child is in the custody of a person other | 756 |
than the child's parent or a government agency, the department of | 757 |
education notifies the court that the place of residence of the | 758 |
child's parent has changed since the court issued its initial | 759 |
order, the court may modify its order to name a different school | 760 |
district to bear the cost of educating the child. The department | 761 |
may submit the notice to the court upon receipt, from the school | 762 |
district initially ordered to bear the cost of educating the | 763 |
child, of evidence acceptable to the department that the residence | 764 |
of the child's parent has changed since the court issued its | 765 |
initial order. In the notice to the court, the department shall | 766 |
recommend to the court whether a different district should be | 767 |
ordered to bear the cost of educating the child and, if so, which | 768 |
district should be so ordered. The department shall recommend to | 769 |
the court the district in which the child's parent currently | 770 |
resides or, if the parent's residence is not known, the district | 771 |
in which the parent's last known residence is located. If the | 772 |
department cannot determine any Ohio district in which the parent | 773 |
currently resides or has resided, the school district designated | 774 |
in the initial court order shall continue to bear the cost of | 775 |
educating the child. | 776 |
(C) Whenever a child is placed by the court in a private | 788 |
institution, school, or residential treatment center or
any other | 789 |
private facility, the state shall pay to the court a subsidy to | 790 |
help defray the expense of educating the child in an amount equal | 791 |
to the product of the daily per capita educational cost of the | 792 |
private
facility, as determined pursuant to this section, and the | 793 |
number of days the child resides at the private facility, provided | 794 |
that
the subsidy shall not exceed twenty-five
hundred dollars per | 795 |
year per child. The daily per capita educational cost
of a
private | 796 |
facility shall be determined by dividing the actual
program cost | 797 |
of the private facility or twenty-five hundred
dollars, whichever | 798 |
is less, by
three hundred sixty-five days or by
three hundred | 799 |
sixty-six days for years
that include February
twenty-ninth. The | 800 |
state shall pay seventy-five per cent of the
total subsidy for | 801 |
each year
quarterly to the court. The state may
adjust the | 802 |
remaining twenty-five per
cent of the
total subsidy to
be paid to | 803 |
the court for each year to an amount that is less
than
twenty-five | 804 |
per cent of the total subsidy for that year based upon
the | 805 |
availability of funds appropriated to the department of
education | 806 |
for the
purpose of subsidizing courts that place a child
in a | 807 |
private institution,
school, or residential treatment center
or | 808 |
any other private facility and
shall pay that adjusted amount
to | 809 |
the court at the end of the year. | 810 |
(d) The substantial and material conclusions and | 849 |
recommendations
of any
psychiatric or psychological examination | 850 |
conducted
on the child or, if no psychological or psychiatric | 851 |
examination of the child
is available, the substantial and | 852 |
material conclusions and recommendations of
an examination to | 853 |
detect mental and emotional disorders conducted in
compliance with | 854 |
the requirements of Chapter 4757. of the Revised Code by an | 855 |
independent social worker, social worker, professional clinical | 856 |
counselor, or
professional counselor licensed under that chapter. | 857 |
The entity shall not
provide any part of a psychological, | 858 |
psychiatric, or mental and emotional
disorder examination to the | 859 |
foster caregivers
or prospective adoptive parents other than the | 860 |
substantial and
material
conclusions. | 861 |
(2) When a juvenile court grants temporary or permanent | 890 |
custody of a child
pursuant to any section of the Revised Code, | 891 |
including section 2151.33,
2151.353, 2151.354,
or 2152.19 of the | 892 |
Revised Code, to a public children services agency or
private | 893 |
child placing agency, the
court shall provide the agency the | 894 |
information described in division
(B) of this
section, pay the | 895 |
expenses of preparing that information, and, if a new
examination | 896 |
is required to be conducted, pay the expenses of
conducting the | 897 |

On receipt | 898 |
of the information described in division (B) of this
section, the | 899 |
agency shall provide to the court written acknowledgment that the | 900 |
agency received the information. The court shall keep the | 901 |
acknowledgment and
provide a copy to the agency. On the motion of | 902 |
the agency, the court may
terminate the order granting
temporary | 903 |
or permanent custody of the child to that agency, if the court | 904 |
does
not provide the information described in division (B) of this | 905 |
section. | 906 |
The agency receiving the information described in division | 924 |
(B) of
this section shall provide the entity
described in division | 925 |
(D)(3)(a) to (c)
of this section that sent the information written | 926 |
acknowledgment that the
agency received
the information and | 927 |
provided it to the foster caregivers
or prospective adoptive | 928 |
parents. The entity shall
keep the
acknowledgment and provide a | 929 |
copy
to the agency. An entity that
places a child in a certified | 930 |
foster home
or for adoption with the assistance of
or by | 931 |
contracting with an agency remains responsible to provide
the | 932 |
information described in division
(B) of this section to the | 933 |
foster caregivers
or prospective adoptive parents unless the | 934 |
entity receives written
acknowledgment that the agency provided | 935 |
the information. | 936 |
(c) Except as provided in division
(D)(1)(e)
of this
section, | 1045 |
if an offender who is convicted of or pleads

another, | 1049 |
also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a specification
of the | 1050 |

2929.20, section 2967.193, or
any other provision of Chapter 2967. | 1059 |
or Chapter 5120. of the Revised Code. A

more than one additional prison term on an offender under
division | 1061 |
(D)(1)(c) of this section for felonies committed as
part of the | 1062 |
same
act or transaction. If a court imposes an additional prison | 1063 |
term on an
offender under division (D)(1)(c) of this section | 1064 |
relative to an offense, the court also shall
impose a prison term | 1065 |
under division
(D)(1)(a) of this section
relative to the same | 1066 |
offense, provided the criteria specified in that division
for | 1067 |
imposing an additional prison term are satisfied relative to the | 1068 |
offender
and the offense. | 1069 |

If an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to | 1070 |
an offense
of violence that is a felony also is convicted of or | 1071 |
pleads guilty to a
specification of the type described in section | 1072 |

offender with | 1073 |
wearing or carrying body armor
while committing the felony offense | 1074 |
of violence, the court shall
impose on the offender a prison term | 1075 |
of two years. The prison
term so imposed shall not be reduced | 1076 |
pursuant to section 2929.20,
section 2967.193, or any other | 1077 |
provision of
Chapter 2967. or
Chapter 5120. of the
Revised Code.
A | 1078 |
court shall not impose more
than one prison term
on an offender | 1079 |

term under division (D)(1)(a)
or (c)
of this | 1082 |
section, the
court is not precluded from imposing
an additional | 1083 |

the
offender is a repeat

court shall
impose | 1124 |
a prison term from the range of terms
authorized for the offense | 1125 |
under division (A) of this section
that
may be the longest term in | 1126 |
the range and that shall not be reduced
pursuant to section | 1127 |
2929.20, section 2967.193, or
any other
provision of Chapter 2967. | 1128 |
or Chapter 5120. of the

person | 1131 |
or that involved substantial permanent
incapacity or
substantial | 1132 |
permanent disfigurement of a person,
the
court shall impose the | 1133 |

section
2903.02 of the Revised Code, if the offender
commits a | 1161 |
violation of section 2925.03 or 2925.11 of
the Revised
Code and | 1162 |
that section classifies the offender as a major drug
offender and | 1163 |
requires the
imposition of a ten-year prison term on
the offender, | 1164 |
if
the offender commits a felony violation of
section 2925.02, | 1165 |
2925.04, 2925.05,

or possession of a schedule
I or II controlled
substance, with the | 1170 |
exception of

court imposing
sentence upon the | 1171 |
offender finds
that the offender is guilty of a
specification of | 1172 |
the type
described in section 2941.1410 of the
Revised Code | 1173 |
charging
that the offender is a
major drug offender,
if the court | 1174 |
imposing sentence upon an offender for
a felony
finds
that the | 1175 |
offender is guilty
of corrupt activity with the
most
serious | 1176 |
offense in the pattern
of corrupt activity being a
felony
of the | 1177 |
first degree, or if the offender is guilty of
an attempted | 1178 |
violation of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code and, had the | 1179 |
offender completed the violation of section 2907.02 of the Revised | 1180 |
Code that was attempted, the offender would have been subject to a | 1181 |
sentence of life imprisonment or life imprisonment without parole | 1182 |
for the violation of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code, the | 1183 |
court shall
impose upon

ten-year

cannot be reduced pursuant to section | 1185 |
2929.20 or

offender caused or threatened to cause physical harm to a person, | 1364 |
it shall
include in the sentence a
requirement that the offender | 1365 |
be subject
to a period of
post-release control after the | 1366 |
offender's release
from imprisonment, in
accordance with that | 1367 |
division. If a court imposes a sentence including a prison term of | 1368 |
a type described in this division on or after the effective date | 1369 |
of this amendment, the failure of a court to include a | 1370 |
post-release control requirement in the sentence pursuant to this | 1371 |
division does not negate, limit, or otherwise affect the mandatory | 1372 |
period of post-release control that is required for the offender | 1373 |
under division (B) of section 2967.28 of the Revised Code. Section | 1374 |
2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, prior to the effective | 1375 |
date of this amendment, a court imposed a sentence including a | 1376 |
prison term of a type described in this division and failed to | 1377 |

division (C) of that
sectionfor a felony of the third, fourth, or | 1381 |
fifth degree that is not subject to division (F)(1) of this | 1382 |
section, it
shall include in the sentence a requirement that the | 1383 |
offender be
subject to a period of post-release control after the | 1384 |
offender's release
from imprisonment, in accordance with that | 1385 |
division, if the
parole board determines that a period of | 1386 |
post-release control is
necessary. Section 2929.191 of the Revised | 1387 |
Code applies if, prior to the effective date of this amendment, a | 1388 |
court imposed a sentence including a prison term of a type | 1389 |
described in this division and failed to include in the sentence | 1390 |
pursuant to this division a statement regarding post-release | 1391 |
control. | 1392 |
(J) If an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to | 1416 |
aggravated murder, murder, or a
felony of the first, second, or | 1417 |
third degree that is an

or pleads guilty to a
specification of the type described in | 1419 |
section 2941.143 of the
Revised
Code that charges the offender | 1420 |
with having committed the offense in a school safety
zone or | 1421 |
towards a person in a school safety zone, the court shall impose | 1422 |
upon the offender an additional prison term of two years. The | 1423 |
offender shall
serve the additional two years consecutively to and | 1424 |
prior to the prison term
imposed for the underlying offense. | 1425 |
(K) At the time of sentencing, the court
may recommend the | 1426 |
offender for
placement in a program of shock incarceration
under | 1427 |
section 5120.031 of the Revised Code or for
placement
in an | 1428 |
intensive program prison
under
section 5120.032 of the Revised | 1429 |
Code, disapprove placement of the
offender in a program of shock | 1430 |
incarceration or
an intensive
program
prison
of that nature, or | 1431 |
make
no recommendation on placement of
the offender.
In no case | 1432 |
shall
the department of rehabilitation and correction place the | 1433 |
offender
in a program or prison of that nature unless the | 1434 |
department
determines as specified in section 5120.031 or 5120.032 | 1435 |
of the
Revised Code, whichever is applicable, that the offender is | 1436 |
eligible for the placement. | 1437 |
If the court does not make a recommendation under this | 1454 |
division with
respect to an
offender
and if the
department | 1455 |
determines as specified in section 5120.031 or 5120.032
of the | 1456 |
Revised Code, whichever is applicable, that the offender is | 1457 |
eligible for placement in a program or prison of that nature, the | 1458 |
department shall screen the offender and
determine if there is an | 1459 |
available program of shock incarceration or an
intensive program | 1460 |
prison for which the offender is suited. If there is an
available | 1461 |
program of shock incarceration or an intensive program prison for | 1462 |
which the offender is suited, the department shall notify the | 1463 |
court of the
proposed placement of the offender
as specified in | 1464 |
section 5120.031 or 5120.032 of the Revised Code and shall include | 1465 |
with the notice a brief
description of the placement. The court | 1466 |
shall have ten days from receipt of
the notice to disapprove the | 1467 |
placement. | 1468 |
Sec. 2929.19. (A)(1) The court shall hold a sentencing | 1469 |
hearing
before imposing a sentence
under this chapter upon an | 1470 |
offender who was convicted of or
pleaded guilty to a felony and | 1471 |
before resentencing an offender
who was convicted of or pleaded | 1472 |
guilty to a felony and whose case
was remanded pursuant to section | 1473 |
2953.07 or 2953.08 of the Revised
Code. At the hearing, the | 1474 |
offender, the prosecuting attorney, the victim or
the victim's | 1475 |
representative in accordance with section 2930.14 of
the Revised | 1476 |
Code, and, with the approval of the
court, any other person may | 1477 |
present information relevant to the
imposition of sentence in the | 1478 |
case. The court shall inform the
offender of the verdict of the | 1479 |
jury or finding of the court and
ask the offender whether the | 1480 |
offender has anything to say as to why
sentence should not be | 1481 |
imposed upon the offender. | 1482 |
(2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, before | 1483 |
imposing sentence on an offender who is being
sentenced on or | 1484 |
after January 1, 1997, for a
sexually oriented offense that is not | 1485 |
a registration-exempt sexually oriented offense and who is in any | 1486 |
category of offender described in division (B)(1)(a)(i), (ii), or | 1487 |
(iii) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code, the court shall | 1488 |
conduct a
hearing in accordance with division (B)
of section | 1489 |
2950.09 of the Revised Code to
determine whether the offender is a | 1490 |
sexual predator. The court shall not
conduct a hearing under that | 1491 |
division if the offender is being sentenced for a
violent sex | 1492 |
offense or a designated homicide, assault, or kidnapping offense | 1493 |
and, in relation to that offense, the offender was adjudicated a | 1494 |
sexually violent predator. Before imposing sentence
on an
offender | 1495 |
who is being sentenced for a sexually oriented
offense that is not | 1496 |
a registration-exempt sexually oriented offense,
the court also | 1497 |
shall comply with division (E) of section
2950.09 of
the Revised | 1498 |
Code. | 1499 |
(a) Unless the offense is a violent sex offense or designated | 1519 |
homicide, assault, or kidnapping offense for
which
the court is | 1520 |
required to impose sentence pursuant to
division (G) of
section | 1521 |
2929.14 of the Revised Code, if it imposes
a prison term for a | 1522 |
felony
of the fourth or fifth degree or for a
felony drug
offense | 1523 |
that is a violation of a provision of
Chapter
2925. of the Revised | 1524 |
Code and that is specified as
being subject
to division (B)
of | 1525 |
section 2929.13 of the Revised Code for

its reasons for imposing the prison term,
based upon the | 1527 |
overriding purposes and principles of felony
sentencing set
forth | 1528 |
in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code, and
any factors
listed in | 1529 |
divisions (B)(1)(a) to (i) of section

felony of | 1564 |
the first degree or second
degree, for a felony
sex offense, or | 1565 |
for a felony of the third degree that is not a felony sex offense | 1566 |
and in the commission of which
the
offender caused or threatened | 1567 |
to cause physical harm to a person;. If a court imposes a sentence | 1568 |
including a prison term of a type described in division (B)(3)(c) | 1569 |
of this section on or after the effective date of this amendment, | 1570 |
the failure of a court to notify the offender pursuant to division | 1571 |
(B)(3)(c) of this section that the offender will be supervised | 1572 |
under section 2967.28 of the Revised Code after the offender | 1573 |
leaves prison or to include in the judgment of conviction entered | 1574 |
on the journal a statement to that effect does not negate, limit, | 1575 |
or otherwise affect the mandatory period of supervision that is | 1576 |
required for the offender under division (B) of section 2967.28 of | 1577 |
the Revised Code. Section 2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, | 1578 |
prior to the effective date of this amendment, a court imposed a | 1579 |
sentence including a prison term of a type described in division | 1580 |
(B)(3)(c) of this section and failed to notify the offender | 1581 |

period of supervision is | 1598 |
imposed following
the
offender's release from prison, as described | 1599 |
in division

section, and if the offender | 1600 |
violates that supervision or a condition of
post-release control | 1601 |
imposed under division (B) of section 2967.131 of the
Revised | 1602 |
Code, the parole board may
impose a prison
term, as part of the | 1603 |
sentence, of up to one-half of the stated
prison term originally | 1604 |
imposed
upon the offender;. If a court imposes a sentence | 1605 |
including a prison term on or after the effective date of this | 1606 |

post-release control imposed under division (B) of section | 1611 |
2967.131 of the Revised Code or to include in the judgment of | 1612 |
conviction entered on the journal a statement to that effect does | 1613 |
not negate, limit, or otherwise affect the authority of the parole | 1614 |
board to so impose a prison term for a violation of that nature | 1615 |
if, pursuant to division (D)(1) of section 2967.28 of the Revised | 1616 |
Code, the parole board notifies the offender prior to the | 1617 |
offender's release of the board's authority to so impose a prison | 1618 |
term. Section 2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, prior to | 1619 |
the effective date of this amendment, a court imposed a sentence | 1620 |
including a prison term and failed to notify the offender pursuant | 1621 |
to division (B)(3)(e) of this section regarding the possibility of | 1622 |
the parole board imposing a prison term for a violation of | 1623 |
supervision or a condition of post-release control. | 1624 |

this section shall not issue the correction until after the court | 1826 |
has conducted a hearing in accordance with this division. Before a | 1827 |
court holds a hearing pursuant to this division, the court shall | 1828 |
provide notice of the date, time, place, and purpose of the | 1829 |
hearing to the offender who is the subject of the hearing, the | 1830 |
prosecuting attorney of the county, and the department of | 1831 |
rehabilitation and correction. The offender has the right to be | 1832 |
physically present at the hearing, except that, upon the court's | 1833 |
own motion or the motion of the offender or the prosecuting | 1834 |
attorney, the court may permit the offender to appear at the | 1835 |
hearing by video conferencing equipment if available and | 1836 |
compatible. An appearance by video conferencing equipment pursuant | 1837 |
to this division has the same force and effect as if the offender | 1838 |
were physically present at the hearing. At the hearing, the | 1839 |
offender and the prosecuting attorney may make a statement as to | 1840 |
whether the court should issue a correction to the judgment of | 1841 |
conviction. | 1842 |
(B) If a probation officer or other person is preparing a | 1851 |
presentence investigation report pursuant to section 2947.06 or | 1852 |
2951.03
of the Revised Code or Criminal Rule 32.2, or a | 1853 |
disposition
investigation report pursuant to section 2151.355 | 1854 |
2152.18 of
the Revised
Code, concerning the
defendant or alleged | 1855 |
juvenile
offender in the case,
the victim may make a written or | 1856 |
oral
statement regarding the impact of the
crime or specified | 1857 |
delinquent act to the probation
officer or
other person. The | 1858 |
probation officer or other
person shall use the statement in | 1859 |
preparing the
presentence investigation report or disposition | 1860 |
investigation report
and, upon
the victim's request, shall include | 1861 |
a written statement submitted
by the victim in the presentence | 1862 |
investigation report or disposition
investigation report. | 1863 |
(D) If a statement made by a victim under
division (A) of | 1882 |
this section is included in a victim
impact statement, the | 1883 |
provision, receipt, and retention of
copies of, the use of, and | 1884 |
the confidentiality, nonpublic record character,
and sealing of | 1885 |
the victim impact statement is
governed by division (H)(B)(2) of | 1886 |
section
2151.3552152.20 or by division
(C) of section 2947.051 of | 1887 |
the Revised
Code, as appropriate. If a statement made by a
victim | 1888 |
under
division (B) of this section is included in a presentence | 1889 |
investigation report prepared pursuant to section 2947.06 or | 1890 |
2951.03 of the
Revised Code
or Criminal Rule 32.2 or in a | 1891 |
disposition
investigation report pursuant to division (C)(1) of | 1892 |
section
2152.18 of the Revised
Code, the
provision, receipt, and | 1893 |
retention of copies of, the use of, and the
confidentiality, | 1894 |
nonpublic record character, and sealing of the
presentence | 1895 |
investigation report or disposition investigation report
that | 1896 |
contains the victim's statement
is governed by section 2951.03 of | 1897 |
the Revised Code. | 1898 |
(B) Each sentence to a prison term for a felony
of the first | 1906 |
degree, for a felony of the second degree, for a felony sex | 1907 |
offense, or for a felony of the third degree
that is not a felony | 1908 |
sex offense and in the commission of which the offender
caused or | 1909 |
threatened to cause physical harm to a person shall include a | 1910 |
requirement that the offender be subject to a period of | 1911 |
post-release control imposed by the parole board after the | 1912 |
offender's
release from imprisonment. If a court imposes a | 1913 |
sentence including a prison term of a type described in this | 1914 |
division on or after the effective date of this amendment, the | 1915 |
failure of a sentencing court to notify the offender pursuant to | 1916 |
division (B)(3)(c) of section 2929.19 of the Revised Code of this | 1917 |
requirement or to include in the judgment of conviction entered on | 1918 |
the journal a statement that the offender's sentence includes this | 1919 |
requirement does not negate, limit, or otherwise affect the | 1920 |
mandatory period of supervision that is required for the offender | 1921 |
under this division. Section 2929.191 of the Revised Code applies | 1922 |
if, prior to the effective date of this amendment, a court imposed | 1923 |
a sentence including a prison term of a type described in this | 1924 |
division and failed to notify the offender pursuant to division | 1925 |
(B)(3)(c) of section 2929.19 of the Revised Code regarding | 1926 |
post-release control or to include in the judgment of conviction | 1927 |
entered on the journal or in the sentence pursuant to division | 1928 |
(F)(1) of section 2929.14 of the Revised Code a statement | 1929 |
regarding post-release control. Unless reduced by the
parole board | 1930 |
pursuant to division (D) of this section when
authorized under | 1931 |
that
division, a period of
post-release control
required by this | 1932 |
division for an offender shall be of one
of the
following periods: | 1933 |
(C) Any sentence to a prison term for a felony
of the third, | 1941 |
fourth, or
fifth degree that is not subject to division (B)(1) or | 1942 |
(3) of this
section shall include a requirement that the offender | 1943 |
be
subject to a period of post-release control of up to three | 1944 |
years
after the offender's release from imprisonment, if the | 1945 |
parole board, in
accordance with division (D) of this section, | 1946 |
determines that a
period of post-release control is necessary for | 1947 |
that offender. Section 2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, | 1948 |
prior to the effective date of this amendment, a court imposed a | 1949 |
sentence including a prison term of a type described in this | 1950 |
division and failed to notify the offender pursuant to division | 1951 |
(B)(3)(d) of section 2929.19 of the Revised Code regarding | 1952 |
post-release control or to include in the judgment of conviction | 1953 |
entered on the journal or in the sentence pursuant to division | 1954 |
(F)(2) of section 2929.14 of the Revised Code a statement | 1955 |
regarding post-release control. | 1956 |
(D)(1) Before the prisoner is released from
imprisonment,
the | 1957 |
parole board
shall impose upon a prisoner
described in
division | 1958 |
(B) of this section, may impose
upon a prisoner described
in | 1959 |
division (C) of this
section, and shall impose upon a prisoner | 1960 |
described in division
(B)(2)(b) of section 5120.031 or in division | 1961 |
(B)(1) of section 5120.032 of the Revised
Code, one or more | 1962 |
post-release control sanctions to apply
during the prisoner's | 1963 |
period of post-release control. Whenever the board
imposes one or | 1964 |
more post-release control sanctions upon a prisoner, the board,
in | 1965 |
addition to imposing the sanctions, also shall include as a | 1966 |
condition of
the post-release control that the individual or felon | 1967 |
not
leave the state without permission of the court or the | 1968 |
individual's or felon's
parole or probation officer and that the | 1969 |
individual or felon abide by the
law. The board may impose any | 1970 |
other
conditions of release under a post-release control sanction | 1971 |
that the board
considers appropriate, and the conditions of | 1972 |
release may include any
community residential sanction, community | 1973 |
nonresidential sanction, or
financial sanction that the sentencing | 1974 |
court was authorized to impose pursuant
to sections 2929.16, | 1975 |
2929.17, and 2929.18 of the Revised Code. Prior to
the release of | 1976 |
a prisoner for whom it will impose one or more post-release | 1977 |
control sanctions under this division, the parole board shall | 1978 |
review the
prisoner's
criminal history, all
juvenile court | 1979 |
adjudications finding the prisoner, while a juvenile, to be a | 1980 |
delinquent child, and the record of the prisoner's conduct while | 1981 |
imprisoned. The parole board shall consider any recommendation | 1982 |
regarding
post-release control sanctions for the prisoner made by | 1983 |
the office of victims'
services. After considering those | 1984 |
materials, the board shall
determine, for a prisoner described in | 1985 |
division (B) of
this section, division (B)(2)(b) of
section | 1986 |
5120.031, or division (B)(1) of section 5120.032
of the Revised | 1987 |
Code, which post-release control
sanction or combination of | 1988 |
post-release control sanctions is
reasonable under the | 1989 |
circumstances or, for a prisoner described
in division (C) of this | 1990 |
section, whether a post-release
control sanction is necessary and, | 1991 |
if so, which post-release
control sanction or combination of | 1992 |
post-release control sanctions
is reasonable under the | 1993 |
circumstances. In the case of a prisoner convicted of
a felony of | 1994 |
the fourth
or fifth degree other than a felony sex offense, the | 1995 |
board shall presume that
monitored time is the appropriate | 1996 |
post-release control sanction unless the
board determines that a | 1997 |
more restrictive sanction is
warranted. A post-release control | 1998 |
sanction imposed under this
division takes effect upon the | 1999 |
prisoner's release from
imprisonment. | 2000 |
Regardless of whether the prisoner was sentenced to the | 2001 |
prison term prior to, on, or after the effective date of this | 2002 |
amendment, prior to the release of a prisoner for whom it will | 2003 |
impose one or more post-release control sanctions under this | 2004 |
division, the parole board shall notify the prisoner that, if the | 2005 |
prisoner violates any sanction so imposed or any condition of | 2006 |
post-release control described in division (B) of section 2967.131 | 2007 |
of the Revised Code that is imposed on the prisoner, the parole | 2008 |
board may impose a prison term of up to one-half of the stated | 2009 |
prison term originally imposed upon the prisoner. | 2010 |
(2) At any time after a prisoner is
released from | 2011 |
imprisonment and during the period of post-release control | 2012 |
applicable to the releasee, the adult parole
authority may
review | 2013 |
the releasee's behavior under the post-release control
sanctions | 2014 |
imposed upon the releasee under this section. The authority may | 2015 |
determine, based upon the review and in accordance with the | 2016 |
standards
established under division (E) of this section, that a | 2017 |
more
restrictive or a
less restrictive sanction is appropriate and | 2018 |
may impose a
different sanction. Unless the period of
post-release | 2019 |
control was imposed for
an offense described in
division (B)(1) of | 2020 |
this section, the
authority also may recommend
that the parole | 2021 |
board reduce the
duration of the period of
post-release control | 2022 |
imposed by the
court. If the authority
recommends that the board | 2023 |
reduce the duration of control for an
offense described in | 2024 |
division
(B)(2), (B)(3), or (C) of this
section, the board
shall | 2025 |
review the
releasee's behavior and may
reduce the duration of the | 2026 |
period of
control imposed by the court.
In no case shall the board | 2027 |
reduce the duration
of the period of
control imposed by the court | 2028 |
for an offense described in
division
(B)(1) of this section, and | 2029 |
in no case shall the board
permit the
releasee to leave the
state | 2030 |
without permission of the court or the
releasee's parole or | 2031 |
probation
officer. | 2032 |
(3) Establish standards to be used by the parole board
in | 2044 |
reducing the duration of the period of post-release control | 2045 |
imposed by the court when authorized under division (D) of this | 2046 |
section, in imposing a more restrictive post-release
control | 2047 |
sanction than monitored time upon a prisoner convicted of a felony | 2048 |
of
the fourth or fifth
degree other than a felony sex offense, or | 2049 |
in imposing a less restrictive
control sanction
upon a releasee | 2050 |
based on the releasee's activities including, but
not limited to, | 2051 |
remaining free from criminal activity and from
the abuse of | 2052 |
alcohol or other drugs, successfully participating
in approved | 2053 |
rehabilitation programs, maintaining employment, and
paying | 2054 |
restitution to the victim or meeting the terms of other
financial | 2055 |
sanctions; | 2056 |
(F)(1) If a post-release control sanction is imposedWhenever | 2074 |
the parole board imposes one or more post-release control | 2075 |
sanctions upon an
offender under
this section,
the offender upon | 2076 |
release from
imprisonment shall be under the general
jurisdiction | 2077 |
of the
adult
parole authority and generally shall be supervised by | 2078 |
the
field services section through its staff of parole and
field | 2079 |
officers
as described in section 5149.04 of the Revised
Code, as | 2080 |
if the
offender had been
placed on parole. If the
offender upon | 2081 |
release
from imprisonment violates the
post-release
control | 2082 |
sanction or
any
conditions described in
division (A) of
section | 2083 |
2967.131 of
the Revised Code that are imposed on
the
offender, the | 2084 |
public or
private
person or entity that
operates or
administers | 2085 |
the sanction
or the program or activity
that comprises
the | 2086 |
sanction shall
report the violation directly
to the adult
parole | 2087 |
authority or to
the officer of the authority
who supervises
the | 2088 |
offender. The
authority's officers may treat
the offender as
if | 2089 |
the offender
were on parole and in violation of the
parole, and | 2090 |
otherwise shall
comply with this section. | 2091 |
(2) If the adult parole authority determines that a
releasee | 2092 |
has violated a post-release control sanction or any conditions | 2093 |
described in division (A) of section
2967.131 of the Revised Code | 2094 |
imposed
upon the releasee and that a more restrictive sanction is | 2095 |
appropriate,
the authority may impose a more restrictive sanction | 2096 |
upon the
releasee, in accordance with the standards established | 2097 |
under
division (E) of this section,
or may report the violation to | 2098 |
the parole board for a hearing
pursuant to division (F)(3) of
this | 2099 |
section. The authority may not, pursuant to this division, | 2100 |
increase the duration of the releasee's post-release control or | 2101 |
impose as a post-release control sanction a
residential sanction | 2102 |
that includes a prison term,
but the authority may impose on the | 2103 |
releasee any other residential
sanction, nonresidential sanction, | 2104 |
or financial sanction that the sentencing
court was authorized to | 2105 |
impose pursuant to sections 2929.16, 2929.17, and
2929.18 of the | 2106 |
Revised Code. | 2107 |
(3) The parole board may hold a hearing on
any alleged | 2108 |
violation by a releasee of a post-release control
sanction or any | 2109 |
conditions described in
division (A) of
section 2967.131 of the | 2110 |
Revised Code that are imposed upon the
releasee. If after the | 2111 |
hearing the
board finds that
the releasee violated the sanction or | 2112 |
condition, the board
may increase the
duration of the releasee's | 2113 |
post-release control up to the maximum
duration authorized by | 2114 |
division (B) or (C) of
this section or impose a more restrictive | 2115 |
post-release control
sanction.
When appropriate, the board may | 2116 |
impose as a
post-release control sanction a residential sanction | 2117 |
that
includes a prison term.
The board shall consider a prison | 2118 |
term as a post-release control
sanction imposed for a violation of | 2119 |
post-release control when the
violation
involves a deadly weapon | 2120 |
or dangerous ordnance, physical harm or
attempted serious physical | 2121 |
harm to a person, or sexual misconduct,
or when the releasee | 2122 |
committed repeated violations of
post-release control sanctions. | 2123 |
The period of a prison term that
is
imposed as a post-release | 2124 |
control sanction under this division shall not
exceed nine months, | 2125 |
and the maximum cumulative prison term for all
violations under | 2126 |
this division shall not exceed one-half
of the stated prison
term | 2127 |
originally imposed upon the offender as part of this sentence.
The | 2128 |
period of a prison term that is imposed as a
post-release
control | 2129 |
sanction under this division shall not count as, or be
credited | 2130 |
toward, the remaining period of post-release control. | 2131 |
(a) The numbers of students receiving each category of | 2196 |
instructional service offered by the school district, such as | 2197 |
regular education instruction, vocational education instruction, | 2198 |
specialized instruction programs or enrichment instruction that
is | 2199 |
part of the educational curriculum, instruction for gifted | 2200 |
students, instruction for handicapped students, and remedial | 2201 |
instruction. The guidelines shall require instructional services | 2202 |
under this division to be divided into discrete categories if an | 2203 |
instructional service is limited to a specific subject, a
specific | 2204 |
type of student, or both, such as regular instructional
services | 2205 |
in mathematics, remedial reading instructional services, | 2206 |
instructional services specifically for students gifted in | 2207 |
mathematics or some other subject area, or instructional services | 2208 |
for students with a specific type of handicap. The categories of | 2209 |
instructional services required by the guidelines under this | 2210 |
division shall be the same as the categories of instructional | 2211 |
services used in determining cost units pursuant to division | 2212 |
(C)(3) of this section. | 2213 |
(a) The total numbers of licensed employees and
nonlicensed | 2259 |

instructional service, instructional support
service, and | 2262 |
administrative support service used pursuant to
division (C)(3) of | 2263 |
this section. The guidelines adopted under
this section shall | 2264 |
require these categories of data to be
maintained for the school | 2265 |
district as a whole and, wherever
applicable, for each grade in | 2266 |
the school district as a whole, for
each school building as a | 2267 |
whole, and for each grade in each
school building. | 2268 |
(b) The total number of employees and the number of

total numbers of licensed employees and nonlicensed
employees
and | 2272 |
the numbers of full-time equivalent licensed
employees and | 2273 |
nonlicensed employees providing each category
used pursuant to | 2274 |
division (C)(4)(c) of this section. The
guidelines adopted under | 2275 |
this section shall require these
categories of data to be | 2276 |
maintained for the school district as a
whole and, wherever | 2277 |
applicable, for each grade in the school
district as a whole, for | 2278 |
each school building as a whole, and for
each grade in each school | 2279 |
building. | 2280 |

district's pupils who reside in economically disadvantaged | 2295 |
households. The demographic data shall be collected in a manner
to | 2296 |
allow correlation with data collected under division (B)(1) of | 2297 |
this section. Categories for data collected pursuant to division | 2298 |
(B)(3) of this section shall conform, where appropriate, to | 2299 |
standard practices of agencies of the federal government. | 2300 |
(3) Instructional services costs for each category of | 2329 |
instructional service provided directly to students and required | 2330 |
by guidelines adopted pursuant to division (B)(1)(a) of this | 2331 |
section. The guidelines shall require the cost units under | 2332 |
division (C)(3) of this section to be designed so that each of | 2333 |
them may be compiled and reported in terms of average expenditure | 2334 |
per pupil receiving the service in the school district as a whole | 2335 |
and average expenditure per pupil receiving the service in each | 2336 |
building in the school district and in terms of a total cost for | 2337 |
each category of service and, as a breakdown of the total cost, a | 2338 |
cost for each of the following components: | 2339 |
(4) Support or extracurricular services costs for each | 2352 |
category of service directly provided to students and required by | 2353 |

them may be | 2356 |
compiled and reported in terms of average expenditure
per pupil | 2357 |
receiving the service in the school district as a whole

each category of service and, as a breakdown of the total cost, a | 2361 |
cost for each of the following components: | 2362 |
(D)(1) The guidelines adopted under this section
shall | 2377 |
require
school districts to collect information about individual | 2378 |
students, staff members, or both in connection with any data | 2379 |
required by division (B) or (C) of this section or other
reporting | 2380 |
requirements established in the Revised Code. The
guidelines may
| 2381 |
also require school districts to report
information about | 2382 |
individual staff members in connection with any
data required by | 2383 |
division (B) or (C) of this section or other
reporting | 2384 |
requirements established in the Revised Code. The
guidelines
shall | 2385 |
not
authorize school districts to request social
security
numbers | 2386 |
of
individual students.
The guidelines shall prohibit
the | 2387 |
reporting
under this
section of
a student's
name,
address,
and | 2388 |
social security number to the state board of
education or the | 2389 |
department of
education. The guidelines shall
also prohibit the | 2390 |
reporting
under
this section of any personally
identifiable | 2391 |
information
about any
student, except for the purpose
of assigning | 2392 |
the data
verification
code required by division
(D)(2) of this | 2393 |
section, to
any
other
person
unless such person
is
employed by
the | 2394 |
school
district or
the data
acquisition site
operated under | 2395 |
section
3301.075 of the
Revised Code
and is
authorized
by the | 2396 |

is employed by an entity with which the department contracts for | 2398 |
the scoring of tests administered under section 3301.0711 or | 2399 |
3301.0712 of the Revised Code.
The
guidelines may
require
school | 2400 |
districts to
provide the social
security numbers
of
individual | 2401 |
staff members. | 2402 |
(3) Copies of the reports received from the state board
under | 2467 |
divisions
(H)(1) and (2) of this section shall be made
available | 2468 |
to the general public at each school district's
offices.
Each | 2469 |
district board of education shall make copies of
each report | 2470 |
available to any person upon request and payment of a
reasonable | 2471 |
fee for the cost of reproducing the report. The board
shall | 2472 |
annually publish in a newspaper of general circulation in
the | 2473 |
school district, at least twice during the two weeks prior to
the | 2474 |
week in which the reports will first be available, a notice | 2475 |
containing the address where the reports are available and the | 2476 |
date on which the reports will be available. | 2477 |
Upon making a report for the first time
in a fiscal year, the | 2512 |
department shall
withhold ten per cent of the total amount due | 2513 |
during that fiscal
year under Chapter 3317. of the Revised Code to | 2514 |
the school district to which
the report applies. Upon making a | 2515 |
second
report in a fiscal year, the department shall withhold
an | 2516 |
additional twenty per cent of such total amount due during
that | 2517 |
fiscal year to the school district to which the report
applies. | 2518 |
The department shall not release such funds
unless it determines | 2519 |
that the district has taken corrective action.
However, no such | 2520 |
release of funds shall occur if the district
fails to take | 2521 |
corrective action within
forty-five days of the date
upon
which | 2522 |
the
report was made by the department. | 2523 |
(1)(a) Except as provided in division (A)(1)(b) of this | 2550 |
section, "parent" means either parent, unless the parents are | 2551 |
separated or divorced or their marriage has been dissolved or | 2552 |
annulled, in which case
"parent" means the parent who is the | 2553 |
residential parent and legal custodian of the child. When a
child | 2554 |
is in the legal custody of a government agency or a person
other | 2555 |
than the child's natural or adoptive parent,
"parent" means
the | 2556 |
parent with residual parental rights, privileges, and | 2557 |
responsibilities. When a child is in the permanent custody of a | 2558 |
government agency or a person other than the child's natural or | 2559 |
adoptive parent,
"parent" means the parent who was divested of | 2560 |
parental
rights and responsibilities for the care of the child and | 2561 |
the
right to have the child live with the parent and be the legal | 2562 |
custodian
of the child and all residual parental rights, | 2563 |
privileges, and
responsibilities. | 2564 |
(D) Tuition required to be paid under divisions (C)(2) and | 2707 |
(3)(a) of this section shall be computed in accordance with | 2708 |
section 3317.08 of the Revised Code. Tuition required to be paid | 2709 |
under division (C)(3)(b) of this section shall be computed in | 2710 |
accordance with section 3317.081 of the Revised Code. If a home | 2711 |
fails to pay the tuition required by division (C)(3)(b) of this | 2712 |
section, the board of education providing the education may | 2713 |
recover in a civil action the tuition and the expenses incurred
in | 2714 |
prosecuting the action, including court costs and reasonable | 2715 |
attorney's fees. If the prosecuting attorney or city director of | 2716 |
law represents the board in such action, costs and reasonable | 2717 |
attorney's fees awarded by the court, based upon the prosecuting | 2718 |
attorney's, director's, or one of their designee's time
spent | 2719 |
preparing
and presenting the case, shall be deposited in the | 2720 |
county or city
general fund. | 2721 |
The district superintendent shall establish a period of
time | 2797 |
not to exceed ninety days during which the child entitled to | 2798 |
attend school under division (F)(6) or (7) of this section may | 2799 |
attend without tuition obligation. A student attending a school | 2800 |
under division (F)(6) or (7) of this section shall be eligible to | 2801 |
participate in interscholastic athletics under the auspices of | 2802 |
that school, provided the board of education of the school | 2803 |
district where the student's parent resides, by a formal action, | 2804 |
releases the student to participate in interscholastic athletics | 2805 |
at the school where the student is attending, and provided the | 2806 |
student receives any authorization required by a public agency or | 2807 |
private organization of which the school district is a member | 2808 |
exercising authority over interscholastic sports. | 2809 |
(8) A child whose parent is a full-time employee of a
city, | 2810 |
local, or exempted village school district, or of an
educational | 2811 |
service center, may be admitted
to the schools of the district | 2812 |
where the child's parent is
employed, or in the case of a child | 2813 |
whose parent is employed by an
educational service center, in the | 2814 |
district that serves the location where
the parent's job is | 2815 |
primarily located,
provided the district board of education | 2816 |
establishes such an admission
policy by resolution adopted by a | 2817 |
majority of its members. Any
such policy shall take effect on the | 2818 |
first day of the school year
and the effective date of any | 2819 |
amendment or repeal may not be
prior to the first day of the | 2820 |
subsequent school year. The policy
shall be uniformly applied to | 2821 |
all such children and shall provide
for the admission of any such | 2822 |
child upon request of the parent. No child may
be admitted under | 2823 |
this policy after the first day of
classes of any school year. | 2824 |
(10) Any child under the age of twenty-two years whose
parent | 2840 |
has moved out of the school district after the commencement
of | 2841 |
classes in the child's senior year of high school is entitled, | 2842 |
subject to the approval of that district board, to attend school | 2843 |
in the district in which the child attended school at the
time of | 2844 |
the parental move for the remainder of the school year and
for one | 2845 |
additional semester or equivalent term. A district board may
also | 2846 |
adopt a policy specifying extenuating circumstances under
which a | 2847 |
student may continue to attend school under division
(F)(10) of | 2848 |
this section for an additional period of time in order
to | 2849 |
successfully complete the high school curriculum for the | 2850 |
individualized education program developed for the student by the | 2851 |
high school pursuant to section 3323.08 of the Revised Code. | 2852 |
(11) As used in this division,
"grandparent" means a
parent | 2853 |
of a parent of a child. A child under the age of
twenty-two years | 2854 |
who is in the custody of the child's
parent, resides
with a | 2855 |
grandparent, and does not require special education is
entitled to | 2856 |
attend the schools of the district in which the
child's | 2857 |
grandparent resides, provided that, prior to such attendance in | 2858 |
any school year, the board of education of the school district in | 2859 |
which the child's grandparent resides and the board of
education | 2860 |
of the
school district in which the child's parent resides enter | 2861 |
into a written
agreement specifying that good cause exists for | 2862 |
such attendance,
describing the nature of this good cause, and | 2863 |
consenting to such
attendance. | 2864 |
In lieu of a consent form signed by a parent, a board of | 2865 |
education may request the grandparent of a child attending school | 2866 |
in the district in which the grandparent resides pursuant to | 2867 |
division (F)(11) of this section to complete any consent form | 2868 |
required by the district, including any authorization required by | 2869 |
sections 3313.712, 3313.713, and 3313.716 of the Revised Code. | 2870 |
Upon
request, the grandparent shall complete any consent form | 2871 |
required
by the district. A school district shall not incur any | 2872 |
liability
solely because of its receipt of a consent form from a | 2873 |
grandparent in lieu of a parent. | 2874 |
(a) That person has been appointed, through a military power | 2930 |
of attorney executed under section 574(a) of the "National Defense | 2931 |
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994," 107 Stat. 1674 (1993), 10 | 2932 |
U.S.C. 1044b, or through a comparable document necessary to | 2933 |
complete a family care plan, as the parent's agent for the care, | 2934 |
custody, and control of the child while the parent is on active | 2935 |
duty as a member of the national guard or a reserve unit of the | 2936 |
armed forces of the United States or because the parent is a | 2937 |
member of the armed forces of the United States and is on a duty | 2938 |
assignment away from the parent's residence. | 2939 |
(I)(1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this | 2959 |
section or section 3313.65 of the Revised Code, a child under | 2960 |
twenty-two years of age may attend school in the school district | 2961 |
in which the child, at the end of the first full week of October | 2962 |
of the school year, was entitled to attend school as otherwise | 2963 |
provided under this section or section 3313.65 of the Revised | 2964 |
Code, if at that time the child was enrolled in the schools of the | 2965 |
district but since that time the child or the child's parent has | 2966 |
relocated to a new address located outside of that school district | 2967 |
and within the same county as the child's or parent's address | 2968 |
immediately prior to the relocation. The child may continue to | 2969 |
attend school in the district, and at the school to which the | 2970 |
child was assigned at the end of the first full week of October of | 2971 |
the current school year, for the balance of the school year. | 2972 |
Division (I)(1) of this section applies only if both of the | 2973 |
following conditions are satisfied: | 2974 |
(4) A pupil who may attend school in the district under | 2996 |
division (I)(1) of this section shall be entitled to | 2997 |
transportation services pursuant to an agreement between the | 2998 |
district and the district in which the child or child's parent has | 2999 |
relocated unless the districts have not entered into such | 3000 |
agreement, in which case the child shall be entitled to | 3001 |
transportation services in the same manner as a pupil attending | 3002 |
school in the district under interdistrict open enrollment as | 3003 |
described in division (H) of section 3313.981 of the Revised Code, | 3004 |
regardless of whether the district has adopted an open enrollment | 3005 |
policy as described in division (B)(1)(b) or (c) of section | 3006 |
3313.98 of the Revised Code. | 3007 |
A school district required to pay tuition pursuant to | 3010 |
division (C)(2) or (3) of this section or section 3313.65 of the | 3011 |
Revised Code shall have an amount deducted under division
(F) of | 3012 |
section 3317.023 of the Revised Code equal to its own tuition
rate | 3013 |
for the same period of attendance. A school district
entitled to | 3014 |
receive tuition pursuant to division (C)(2) or (3) of
this section | 3015 |
or section 3313.65 of the Revised Code shall have an
amount | 3016 |
credited under division (F) of section 3317.023 of
the
Revised | 3017 |
Code equal to its own tuition rate for the same period of | 3018 |
attendance. If the tuition rate credited to the district of | 3019 |
attendance exceeds the rate deducted from the district required
to | 3020 |
pay tuition, the department of education shall pay the
district of | 3021 |
attendance the difference from amounts deducted from
all | 3022 |
districts' payments under division (F) of section
3317.023 of
the | 3023 |
Revised Code but not credited to other school districts under
such | 3024 |
division and from appropriations made for such purpose. The | 3025 |
treasurer of each school district shall, by the fifteenth day of | 3026 |
January and July, furnish the superintendent of public
instruction | 3027 |
a report of the names of each child who attended the
district's | 3028 |
schools under divisions (C)(2) and (3) of this section
or section | 3029 |
3313.65 of the Revised Code during the preceding six
calendar | 3030 |
months, the duration of the attendance of those
children, the | 3031 |
school district responsible for tuition on behalf
of the child, | 3032 |
and any other information that the superintendent
requires. | 3033 |
(M) In accordance with division (B)(1) of this section, a | 3049 |
child whose parent is a member of the national guard or a reserve | 3050 |
unit of the armed forces of the United States and is called to | 3051 |
active duty, or a child whose parent is a member of the armed | 3052 |
forces of the United States and is ordered to a temporary duty | 3053 |
assignment outside of the district, may continue to attend school | 3054 |
in the district in which the child's parent lived before being | 3055 |
called to active duty or ordered to a temporary duty assignment | 3056 |
outside of the district, as long as the child's parent continues | 3057 |
to be a resident of that district, and regardless of where the | 3058 |
child lives as a result of the parent's active duty status or | 3059 |
temporary duty assignment. However, the district is not | 3060 |
responsible for providing transportation for the child if the | 3061 |
child lives outside of the district as a result of the parent's | 3062 |
active duty status or temporary duty assignment. | 3063 |
(4) A violation of section 2903.01, 2903.02, 2903.03, | 3086 |
2903.04, 2903.11,
2903.12, 2907.02, or 2907.05 or of former | 3087 |
section 2907.12 of the
Revised Code that was committed on property | 3088 |
owned or controlled
by, or at an activity held under the auspices | 3089 |
of, a board of
education of a city, local, exempted village, or | 3090 |
joint vocational
school district, if the victim at the time of the | 3091 |
commission of
the act was an employee of that board of education; | 3092 |
(5) Complicity in any violation described in division
(A)(1), | 3093 |
(2), (3), or (4) of this section that was
alleged to have been | 3094 |
committed in the manner described in division (A)(1), (2),
(3), or | 3095 |
(4) of this section, regardless of whether the act of
complicity | 3096 |
was
committed on property owned or controlled by, or at an | 3097 |
activity
held under the auspices of, a board of education of a | 3098 |
city,
local, exempted village, or joint vocational school | 3099 |
district. | 3100 |
(C)(1) If the superintendent of a city, local, exempted | 3105 |
village, or joint vocational school district in which a pupil | 3106 |
attends school obtains or receives proof that the pupil has been | 3107 |
convicted of committing when the pupil was sixteen years of age or | 3108 |
older a violation listed in division (A) of this section or | 3109 |
adjudicated
a delinquent child for the commission when the pupil | 3110 |
was sixteen
years of age or older of a violation listed in | 3111 |
division (A) of this
section, the superintendent may issue to the | 3112 |
board of education
of the school district a request that the pupil | 3113 |
be permanently
excluded from public school attendance, if both of | 3114 |
the following
apply: | 3115 |
If any violation which in whole or in part gave rise to the | 3218 |
permanent
exclusion of any pupil involved the pupil's bringing a | 3219 |
firearm to a school
operated by the board of education of a school | 3220 |
district or
onto any other property owned or operated by such a | 3221 |
board, no
superintendent shall recommend under this division an | 3222 |
effective date for the
revocation of the pupil's permanent | 3223 |
exclusion that is less than one year after
the date on which the | 3224 |
last such firearm incident occurred. However, on a case-by-case | 3225 |
basis, a
superintendent may recommend an earlier effective date | 3226 |
for such a revocation
for any of the reasons for which the | 3227 |
superintendent may
reduce the one-year expulsion
requirement in | 3228 |
division (B)(2) of section 3313.66 of the Revised Code. | 3229 |
(b) Upon receipt of the recommendation of the
superintendent | 3230 |
that a permanent exclusion of a pupil be revoked,
the board of | 3231 |
education of a city, local, exempted village, or
joint vocational | 3232 |
school district may adopt a resolution by a
majority vote of its | 3233 |
members requesting the superintendent of
public instruction to | 3234 |
revoke the permanent exclusion of the
pupil. Upon adoption of the | 3235 |
resolution, the board of education
shall forward a copy of the | 3236 |
resolution, the reasons for the
resolution, and any other relevant | 3237 |
information to the
superintendent of public instruction. | 3238 |
(2)(a) A pupil who has been permanently excluded pursuant
to | 3246 |
this section and section 3301.121 of the Revised Code may
request | 3247 |
the superintendent of any city, local, exempted village,
or joint | 3248 |
vocational school district in which the pupil desires to
attend | 3249 |
school to admit the pupil on a probationary basis for a
period not | 3250 |
to exceed ninety school days. Upon receiving the
request, the | 3251 |
superintendent may enter into discussions with the
pupil and with | 3252 |
the pupil's parent, guardian, or custodian or a
person designated | 3253 |
by the pupil's parent, guardian, or custodian
to develop a | 3254 |
probationary admission plan designed to assist the
pupil's | 3255 |
probationary admission to the school. The plan may
include a | 3256 |
treatment program, a behavioral modification program,
or any other | 3257 |
program reasonably designed to meet the educational
needs of the | 3258 |
child and the disciplinary requirements of the
school. | 3259 |
If any violation which in whole or in part gave rise to the | 3260 |
permanent
exclusion of the pupil involved the pupil's bringing a | 3261 |
firearm to a school
operated by the board of education of any | 3262 |
school district or
onto any other property owned or operated by | 3263 |
such a board, no plan
developed under this division for the pupil | 3264 |
shall include an effective date
for the probationary admission of | 3265 |
the pupil that is less than one year after
the date on which the | 3266 |
last such firearm incident occurred except that on a
case-by-case | 3267 |
basis, a
plan may include an earlier effective date for such an | 3268 |
admission for any of
the reasons for which the superintendent of | 3269 |
the district may reduce the
one-year expulsion requirement in | 3270 |
division (B)(2) of section 3313.66
of the Revised Code. | 3271 |
(b) If the superintendent of a school district, a pupil,
and | 3272 |
the pupil's parent, guardian, or custodian or a person
designated | 3273 |
by the pupil's parent, guardian, or custodian agree
upon a | 3274 |
probationary admission plan prepared pursuant to division | 3275 |
(F)(2)(a) of this section, the superintendent of the school | 3276 |
district shall issue to the board of education of the school | 3277 |
district a recommendation that the pupil be allowed to attend | 3278 |
school within the school district under probationary admission, | 3279 |
the reasons for the recommendation, and a copy of the agreed upon | 3280 |
probationary admission plan. Within fourteen days after the
board | 3281 |
of education receives the recommendation, reasons, and
plan, the | 3282 |
board may adopt the recommendation by a majority vote
of its | 3283 |
members. If the board adopts the recommendation, the
pupil may | 3284 |
attend school under probationary admission within that
school | 3285 |
district for a period not to exceed ninety days or any
additional | 3286 |
probationary period permitted under divisions
(F)(2)(d) and (e) of | 3287 |
this section in accordance with the
probationary admission plan | 3288 |
prepared pursuant to division
(F)(2)(a) of this section. | 3289 |
(c) If a pupil who is permitted to attend school under | 3290 |
probationary admission pursuant to division (F)(2)(b) of this | 3291 |
section fails to comply with the probationary admission plan | 3292 |
prepared pursuant to division (F)(2)(a) of this section, the | 3293 |
superintendent of the school district immediately may remove the | 3294 |
pupil from the school and issue to the board of education of the | 3295 |
school district a recommendation that the probationary admission | 3296 |
be revoked. Within five days after the board of education
receives | 3297 |
the recommendation, the board may adopt the
recommendation to | 3298 |
revoke the pupil's probationary admission by a
majority vote of | 3299 |
its members. If a majority of the board does
not adopt the | 3300 |
recommendation to revoke the pupil's probationary
admission, the | 3301 |
pupil shall continue to attend school in
compliance with the | 3302 |
pupil's probationary admission plan. | 3303 |
(d) If a pupil who is permitted to attend school under | 3304 |
probationary admission pursuant to division (F)(2)(b) of this | 3305 |
section complies with the probationary admission plan prepared | 3306 |
pursuant to division (F)(2)(a) of this section, the pupil or the | 3307 |
pupil's
parent, guardian, or custodian, at any time before the | 3308 |
expiration
of the ninety-day probationary admission period, may | 3309 |
request the
superintendent of the school district to extend the | 3310 |
terms and
period of the pupil's probationary admission for a | 3311 |
period not to
exceed ninety days or to issue a recommendation | 3312 |
pursuant to division
(F)(1) of this section that the pupil's | 3313 |
permanent exclusion be
revoked and the pupil be allowed to return | 3314 |
to the public schools
of this state. | 3315 |
(e) If a pupil is granted an extension of the pupil's | 3316 |
probationary
admission pursuant to division (F)(2)(d) of this | 3317 |
section, the
pupil or the pupil's parent, guardian, or custodian, | 3318 |
in the manner
described in that division, may request, and the | 3319 |
superintendent
and board, in the manner described in that | 3320 |
division, may
recommend and grant, subsequent probationary | 3321 |
admission periods not
to exceed ninety days each. If a pupil who | 3322 |
is permitted to
attend school under an extension of a probationary | 3323 |
admission plan
complies with the probationary admission plan | 3324 |
prepared pursuant
to the extension, the pupil or the pupil's | 3325 |
parent,
guardian, or custodian may
request a revocation of the | 3326 |
pupil's permanent exclusion in the
manner described in division | 3327 |
(F)(2)(d) of this section. | 3328 |
(d) The school will comply with

of the Revised Code pursuant to division (A) of this section. | 4349 |
(F)(1) If a court imposes a prison term of a type
described | 4353 |
in
division (B) of section 2967.28 of the
Revised Codefor a | 4354 |
felony of the first degree, for a felony of the second degree, for | 4355 |
a felony sex offense, or for a felony of the third degree that is | 4356 |
not a felony sex offense and in the commission of which the | 4357 |
offender caused or threatened to cause physical harm to a person, | 4358 |
it shall
include in the sentence a
requirement that the offender | 4359 |
be subject
to a period of
post-release control after the | 4360 |
offender's release
from imprisonment, in
accordance with that | 4361 |
division. If a court imposes a sentence including a prison term of | 4362 |
a type described in this division on or after the effective date | 4363 |
of this amendment, the failure of a court to include a | 4364 |
post-release control requirement in the sentence pursuant to this | 4365 |
division does not negate, limit, or otherwise affect the mandatory | 4366 |
period of post-release control that is required for the offender | 4367 |
under division (B) of section 2967.28 of the Revised Code. Section | 4368 |
2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, prior to the effective | 4369 |
date of this amendment, a court imposed a sentence including a | 4370 |
prison term of a type described in this division and failed to | 4371 |
include in the sentence pursuant to this division a statement | 4372 |
regarding post-release control. | 4373 |
(2) If a court
imposes a prison term
of a type described in | 4374 |
division (C) of that
sectionfor a felony of the third, fourth, or | 4375 |
fifth degree that is not subject to division (F)(1) of this | 4376 |
section, it
shall include in the sentence a requirement that the | 4377 |
offender be
subject to a period of post-release control after the | 4378 |
offender's release
from imprisonment, in accordance with that | 4379 |
division, if the
parole board determines that a period of | 4380 |
post-release control is
necessary. Section 2929.191 of the Revised | 4381 |
Code applies if, prior to the effective date of this amendment, a | 4382 |
court imposed a sentence including a prison term of a type | 4383 |
described in this division and failed to include in the sentence | 4384 |
pursuant to this division a statement regarding post-release | 4385 |
control. | 4386 |
(J) If an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to | 4410 |
aggravated murder, murder, or a
felony of the first, second, or | 4411 |
third degree that is an
offense of violence also is convicted of | 4412 |
or pleads guilty to a
specification of the type described in | 4413 |
section 2941.143 of the
Revised
Code that charges the offender | 4414 |
with having committed the offense in a school safety
zone or | 4415 |
towards a person in a school safety zone, the court shall impose | 4416 |
upon the offender an additional prison term of two years. The | 4417 |
offender shall
serve the additional two years consecutively to and | 4418 |
prior to the prison term
imposed for the underlying offense. | 4419 |
(K) At the time of sentencing, the court
may recommend the | 4420 |
offender for
placement in a program of shock incarceration
under | 4421 |
section 5120.031 of the Revised Code or for
placement
in an | 4422 |
intensive program prison
under
section 5120.032 of the Revised | 4423 |
Code, disapprove placement of the
offender in a program of shock | 4424 |
incarceration or
an intensive
program
prison
of that nature, or | 4425 |
make
no recommendation on placement of
the offender.
In no case | 4426 |
shall
the department of rehabilitation and correction place the | 4427 |
offender
in a program or prison of that nature unless the | 4428 |
department
determines as specified in section 5120.031 or 5120.032 | 4429 |
of the
Revised Code, whichever is applicable, that the offender is | 4430 |
eligible for the placement. | 4431 |
If the court does not make a recommendation under this | 4448 |
division with
respect to an
offender
and if the
department | 4449 |
determines as specified in section 5120.031 or 5120.032
of the | 4450 |
Revised Code, whichever is applicable, that the offender is | 4451 |
eligible for placement in a program or prison of that nature, the | 4452 |
department shall screen the offender and
determine if there is an | 4453 |
available program of shock incarceration or an
intensive program | 4454 |
prison for which the offender is suited. If there is an
available | 4455 |
program of shock incarceration or an intensive program prison for | 4456 |
which the offender is suited, the department shall notify the | 4457 |
court of the
proposed placement of the offender
as specified in | 4458 |
section 5120.031 or 5120.032 of the Revised Code and shall include | 4459 |
with the notice a brief
description of the placement. The court | 4460 |
shall have ten days from receipt of
the notice to disapprove the | 4461 |
placement. | 4462 |
Section 5. (A) The General Assembly hereby declares that its | 4466 |
purpose in amending sections 2929.14, 2929.19, and 2967.28 and | 4467 |
enacting section 2929.191 of the Revised Code in Sections 1 and 2 | 4468 |
of this act and in amending section 2929.14 of the Revised Code in | 4469 |
Sections 3 and 4 of this act is to reaffirm that, under the | 4470 |
amended sections as they existed prior to the effective date of | 4471 |
this act: (1) by operation of law and without need for any prior | 4472 |
notification or warning, every convicted offender sentenced to a | 4473 |
prison term for a felony of the first or second degree, for a | 4474 |
felony sex offense, or for a felony of the third degree that is | 4475 |
not a felony sex offense and in the commission of which the | 4476 |
offender caused or threatened to cause physical harm to a person | 4477 |
always is subject to a period of post-release control after the | 4478 |
offender's release from imprisonment pursuant to and for the | 4479 |
period of time described in division (B) of section 2967.28 of the | 4480 |
Revised Code; (2) by operation of law, every convicted offender | 4481 |
sentenced to a prison term for a felony of the third, fourth, or | 4482 |
fifth degree that is not subject to the provision described in | 4483 |
clause (1) of this sentence is subject to a period of post-release | 4484 |
control after the offender's release from imprisonment pursuant to | 4485 |
division (C) of section 2967.28 of the Revived Code if the parole | 4486 |
board determines in accordance with specified criteria that | 4487 |
post-release control is necessary; and (3) by operation of law and | 4488 |
without need for any prior notification or warning, every | 4489 |
convicted offender sentenced to a prison term and subjected to | 4490 |
supervision under a period of post-release control after the | 4491 |
offender's release from imprisonment always is subject to having | 4492 |
the Parole Board impose in accordance with section 2967.28 of the | 4493 |
Revised Code a prison term of up to one-half of the stated prison | 4494 |
term originally imposed upon the offender if the offender violates | 4495 |
that supervision or a condition of post-release control imposed | 4496 |
under division (B) of section 2967.131 of the Revised Code. | 4497 |
(B) The General Assembly hereby declares that it believes | 4498 |
that the amendments made to sections 2929.14, 2929.19, and 2967.28 | 4499 |
and the enactment of section 2929.191 of the Revised Code in | 4500 |
Sections 1 and 2 of this act and the amendment made to section | 4501 |
2929.14 of the Revised Code in Sections 3 and 4 of this act are | 4502 |
not substantive in nature and merely clarify that the amended | 4503 |
sections operate as described in division (A) of this Section, | 4504 |
that the convicted offenders described in clause (1) under | 4505 |
division (A) of this Section always are subject by operation of | 4506 |
law and without need for any prior notification or warning to a | 4507 |
period of post-release control after their release from | 4508 |
imprisonment as described in that division, that the convicted | 4509 |
offenders described in clause (2) under division (A) of this | 4510 |
Section are subject by operation of law to post-release control | 4511 |
after their release from imprisonment if the Parole Board makes | 4512 |
certain determinations, that the convicted offenders described in | 4513 |
clause (3) under division (A) of this Section always are subject | 4514 |
by operation of law to having the Parole Board impose a prison | 4515 |
term if they violate their supervision or a condition of | 4516 |
post-release control as described in that division, and that the | 4517 |
amendments made to sections 2929.14, 2929.19, and 2967.28 and the | 4518 |
enactment of section 2929.191 of the Revised Code in Sections 1 | 4519 |
and 2 of this act and the amendment made to section 2929.14 of the | 4520 |
Revised Code in Sections 3 and 4 of this act thus are remedial in | 4521 |
nature. The General Assembly declares that it intends that the | 4522 |
clarifying, remedial amendments made to sections 2929.14, 2929.19, | 4523 |
and 2967.28 and the enactment of section 2929.191 of the Revised | 4524 |
Code in Sections 1 and 2 of this act and the amendment made to | 4525 |
section 2929.14 of the Revised Code in Sections 3 and 4 of this | 4526 |
act apply to all convicted offenders described in division (A) of | 4527 |
this Section, regardless of whether they were sentenced prior to, | 4528 |
or are sentenced on or after, the effective date of this act. | 4529 |
Section 6. Sections 2151.313, 2152.72, 2930.13, 3301.0714, | 4530 |
3313.64, 3313.662, 3314.03, 3323.01, and 4301.69 of the Revised | 4531 |
Code, as amended by this act, section 2151.357 (2151.362) of the | 4532 |
Revised Code as amended by this act for the purpose of adopting a | 4533 |
new section number, new sections 2151.357 and 2151.358 and | 4534 |
sections 2151.355 and 2151.356 of the Revised Code, as enacted by | 4535 |
this act, and the repeal of section 2151.358 of the Revised Code | 4536 |
by this act shall take effect ninety days after the effective date | 4537 |
of this act. | 4538 |
Section 7. This act is hereby declared to be an emergency | 4539 |
measure necessary for the immediate preservation of the public | 4540 |
peace, health, and safety. The reason for such necessity is that | 4541 |
the amendments made in this act are crucially needed to clarify | 4542 |
the law to protect the residents of this state from the | 4543 |
consequences that might result if the state is forced to release | 4544 |
without supervision offenders who have been convicted of serious | 4545 |
offenses and imprisoned, solely because the offenders were not | 4546 |
provided notice of the fact that the law always requires their | 4547 |
supervision upon release from prison. Therefore, this act shall go | 4548 |
into immediate effect. | 4549 |
