(6) In any other case of the unlawful and forcible detention	1163
of lands or tenements. For purposes of this division, in addition	1164

of the following apply:	1167

(a) A tenant fails to vacate residential premises within	1168
three days after both of the following occur:	1169

(i) The tenant's landlord has actual knowledge of or has	1170
reasonable cause to believe that the tenant, any person in the	1171
tenant's household, or any person on the premises with the consent	1172
of the tenant previously has or presently is engaged in a	1173
violation of Chapter 2925. or 3719. of the Revised Code, or of a	1174
municipal ordinance that is substantially similar to any section	1175
in either of those chapters, which involves a controlled substance	1176
and which occurred in, is occurring in, or otherwise was or is	1177
connected with the premises, whether or not the tenant or other	1178
person has been charged with, has pleaded guilty to or been	1179
convicted of, or has been determined to be a delinquent child for	1180
an act that, if committed by an adult, would be a violation as	1181
described in this division. For purposes of this division, a	1182
landlord has "actual knowledge of or has reasonable cause to	1183
believe" that a tenant, any person in the tenant's household, or	1184
any person on the premises with the consent of the tenant	1185
previously has or presently is engaged in a violation as described	1186
in this division if a search warrant was issued pursuant to	1187
Criminal Rule 41 or Chapter 2933. of the Revised Code; the	1188
affidavit presented to obtain the warrant named or described the	1189
tenant or person as the individual to be searched and particularly	1190

municipal ordinance that occurred in, is occurring in, or	1195
otherwise was or is connected with the tenant's premises, and	1196
states the factual basis for the affiant's belief that the	1197
controlled substances are located on the tenant's premises; the	1198
warrant was properly executed by a law enforcement officer and any	1199
controlled substance described in the affidavit was found by that	1200
officer during the search and seizure; and, subsequent to the	1201
search and seizure, the landlord was informed by that or another	1202
law enforcement officer of the fact that the tenant or person has	1203
or presently is engaged in a violation as described in this	1204
division and it occurred in, is occurring in, or otherwise was or	1205
is connected with the tenant's premises.	1206

division (C) of section 5321.17 of the Revised Code.	1208

person on the premises with the consent of the tenant previously	1211
has or presently is engaged in a violation as described in	1212
division (A)(6)(a)(i) of this section.	1213

contract and to grant any other claims arising out of the	1217
contract.	1218

(8) Against tenants who have breached an obligation that is	1219
imposed by section 5321.05 of the Revised Code, other than the	1220
obligation specified in division (A)(9) of that section, and that	1221
materially affects health and safety. Prior to the commencement of	1222
an action under this division, notice shall be given to the tenant	1223
and compliance secured with section 5321.11 of the Revised Code.	1224

(9) Against tenants who have breached an obligation imposed	1225
upon them by a written rental agreement;	1226

(10) Against manufactured home park residents who have	1227
defaulted in the payment of rent or breached the terms of a rental	1228
agreement with a park operator. Nothing in this division precludes	1229
the commencement of an action under division (A)(12) of this	1230
section when the additional circumstances described in that	1231
division apply.	1232

(11) Against manufactured home park residents who have	1233

period of thirty consecutive days prior to the commencement of an	1242
action under this division and whose manufactured home or mobile	1243
home, or recreational vehicle that is parked in the manufactured	1244

to a serious youthful offender dispositional sentence for that	1265
offense.	1266

(15) Against any tenant who permits any person to occupy	1267
residential premises located within one thousand feet of any	1268
school premises or preschool or child day-care center premises in	1269
violation of section 2950.034 of the Revised Code if both of the	1270
following apply to the person:	1271

serious youthful offender dispositional sentence for that offense.	1279

(B) If a tenant or manufactured home park resident holding	1280
under an oral tenancy is in default in the payment of rent, the	1281
tenant or resident forfeits the right of occupancy, and the	1282
landlord may, at the landlord's option, terminate the tenancy by	1283
notifying the tenant or resident, as provided in section 1923.04	1284
of the Revised Code, to leave the premises, for the restitution of	1285

child support matters in accordance with section 3109.05 of the	1447
Revised Code.	1448

(G) Any juvenile court that makes or modifies an order for	1449
child support shall comply with Chapters 3119., 3121., 3123., and	1450
3125. of the Revised Code. If any person required to pay child	1451
support under an order made by a juvenile court on or after April	1452
15, 1985, or modified on or after December 1, 1986, is found in	1453
contempt of court for failure to make support payments under the	1454
order, the court that makes the finding, in addition to any other	1455
penalty or remedy imposed, shall assess all court costs arising	1456
out of the contempt proceeding against the person and require the	1457
person to pay any reasonable attorney's fees of any adverse party,	1458
as determined by the court, that arose in relation to the act of	1459
contempt.	1460

(H) If a child who is charged with an act that would be an	1461
offense if committed by an adult was fourteen years of age or	1462
older and under eighteen years of age at the time of the alleged	1463
act and if the case is transferred for criminal prosecution	1464
pursuant to section 2152.12 of the Revised Code, except as	1465
provided in section 2152.121 of the Revised Code, the juvenile	1466
court does not have jurisdiction to hear or determine the case	1467
subsequent to the transfer. The court to which the case is	1468
transferred for criminal prosecution pursuant to that section has	1469
jurisdiction subsequent to the transfer to hear and determine the	1470
case in the same manner as if the case originally had been	1471
commenced in that court, subject to section 2152.121 of the	1472
Revised Code, including, but not limited to, jurisdiction to	1473
accept a plea of guilty or another plea authorized by Criminal	1474
Rule 11 or another section of the Revised Code and jurisdiction to	1475
accept a verdict and to enter a judgment of conviction pursuant to	1476
the Rules of Criminal Procedure against the child for the	1477
commission of the offense that was the basis of the transfer of	1478
the case for criminal prosecution, whether the conviction is for	1479
the same degree or a lesser degree of the offense charged, for the	1480
commission of a lesser-included offense, or for the commission of	1481
another offense that is different from the offense charged.	1482

(I) If a person under eighteen years of age allegedly commits	1483
an act that would be a felony if committed by an adult and if the	1484
person is not taken into custody or apprehended for that act until	1485
after the person attains twenty-one years of age, the juvenile	1486
court does not have jurisdiction to hear or determine any portion	1487
of the case charging the person with committing that act. In those	1488
circumstances, divisions (A) and (B) of section 2152.12 of the	1489
Revised Code do not apply regarding the act, and the case charging	1490
the person with committing the act shall be a criminal prosecution	1491
commenced and heard in the appropriate court having jurisdiction	1492
of the offense as if the person had been eighteen years of age or	1493
older when the person committed the act. All proceedings	1494
pertaining to the act shall be within the jurisdiction of the	1495
court having jurisdiction of the offense, and that court has all	1496
the authority and duties in the case that it has in other criminal	1497
cases in that court.	1498

(J) In exercising its exclusive original jurisdiction under	1499
division (A)(16) of this section with respect to any proceedings	1500
brought under section 2151.34 or 3113.31 of the Revised Code in	1501
which the respondent is a child, the juvenile court retains all	1502
dispositionary powers consistent with existing rules of juvenile	1503
procedure and may also exercise its discretion to adjudicate	1504
proceedings as provided in sections 2151.34 and 3113.31 of the	1505
Revised Code, including the issuance of protection orders or the	1506
approval of consent agreements under those sections.	1507

(K) Regardless of the person's age, the juvenile court	1508
retains jurisdiction over a person who has received a serious	1509
youthful offender dispositional sentence under section 2152.13 of	1510
the Revised Code until the person successfully completes all the	1511
traditional juvenile dispositions imposed under the dispositional	1512
sentence or until the juvenile court pursuant to section 2152.14	1513
of the Revised Code invokes the adult portion of the dispositional	1514
sentence imposed.	1515

(L) Regardless of the person's age, the juvenile court	1516
retains jurisdiction over a person who has been adjudicated a	1517
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense or a	1518
child-victim oriented offense on or after January 1, 2002, for the	1519
purpose of imposing, modifying, or terminating an order under	1520
sections 2152.82, 2152.83, 2152.831, 2152.84, and 2152.85 of the	1521
Revised Code.	1522

Sec. 2151.357.  (A) If the court orders the records of a	1523
person sealed pursuant to section 2151.356 of the Revised Code,	1524
the person who is subject of the order properly may, and the court	1525
shall, reply that no record exists with respect to the person upon	1526
any inquiry in the matter, and the court, except as provided in	1527
division (D) of this section, shall do all of the following:	1528

(1) Order that the proceedings in a case described in	1529
divisions (B) and (C) of section 2151.356 of the Revised Code be	1530
deemed never to have occurred;	1531

(2) Except as provided in division (C) of this section,	1532
delete all index references to the case and the person so that the	1533
references are permanently irretrievable;	1534

(3) Order that all original records of the case maintained by	1535
any public office or agency, except fingerprints held by a law	1536
enforcement agency, DNA specimens collected pursuant to section	1537
2152.74 of the Revised Code, and DNA records derived from DNA	1538
specimens pursuant to section 109.573 of the Revised Code, be	1539
delivered to the court;	1540

(4) Order each public office or agency, upon the delivering	1541
of records to the court under division (A)(3) of this section, to	1542
expunge remaining records of the case that are the subject of the	1543
sealing order that are maintained by that public office or agency,	1544
except fingerprints, DNA specimens, and DNA records described	1545
under division (A)(3) of this section;	1546

(5) Send notice of the order to seal to any public office or	1547
agency that the court has reason to believe may have a record of	1548
the sealed record;	1549

(6) Seal all of the records delivered to the court under	1550
division (A)(3) of this section, in a separate file in which only	1551
sealed records are maintained.	1552

(B) Except as provided in division (D) of this section, an	1553
order to seal under section 2151.356 of the Revised Code applies	1554
to every public office or agency that has a record relating to the	1555
case, regardless of whether it receives notice of the hearing on	1556
the sealing of the record or a copy of the order. Except as	1557
provided in division (D) of this section, upon the written request	1558
of a person whose record has been sealed and the presentation of a	1559
copy of the order and compliance with division (A)(3) of this	1560
section, a public office or agency shall expunge its record	1561
relating to the case, except a record of the adjudication or	1562
arrest or taking into custody that is maintained for compiling	1563
statistical data and that does not contain any reference to the	1564
person who is the subject of the order.	1565

(C) The court that maintains sealed records pursuant to this	1566
section may maintain a manual or computerized index of the sealed	1567
records and shall make the index available only for the purposes	1568
set forth in division (E) of this section.	1569

(1) Each entry regarding a sealed record in the index of	1570
sealed records shall contain all of the following:	1571

(a) The name of the person who is the subject of the sealed	1572
record;	1573

(D) Notwithstanding any provision of this section that	1584
requires otherwise, a board of education of a city, local,	1585
exempted village, or joint vocational school district that	1586
maintains records of an individual who has been permanently	1587
excluded under sections 3301.121 and 3313.662 of the Revised Code	1588
is permitted to maintain records regarding an adjudication that	1589
the individual is a delinquent child that was used as the basis	1590
for the individual's permanent exclusion, regardless of a court	1591
order to seal the record. An order issued under section 2151.356	1592
of the Revised Code to seal the record of an adjudication that an	1593
individual is a delinquent child does not revoke the adjudication	1594
order of the superintendent of public instruction to permanently	1595
exclude the individual who is the subject of the sealing order. An	1596
order to seal the record of an adjudication that an individual is	1597
a delinquent child may be presented to a district superintendent	1598
as evidence to support the contention that the superintendent	1599
should recommend that the permanent exclusion of the individual	1600
who is the subject of the sealing order be revoked. Except as	1601
otherwise authorized by this division and sections 3301.121 and	1602
3313.662 of the Revised Code, any school employee in possession of	1603
or having access to the sealed adjudication records of an	1604
individual that were the basis of a permanent exclusion of the	1605
individual is subject to division (F) of this section.	1606

(E) Inspection of records that have been ordered sealed under	1607
section 2151.356 of the Revised Code may be made only by the	1608
following persons or for the following purposes:	1609

(1) By the court;

1610

(2) If the records in question pertain to an act that would	1611
be an offense of violence that would be a felony if committed by	1612
an adult, by any law enforcement officer or any prosecutor, or the	1613
assistants of a law enforcement officer or prosecutor, for any	1614
valid law enforcement or prosecutorial purpose;	1615

(3) Upon application by the person who is the subject of the	1616
sealed records, by the person that is named in that application;	1617

(4) If the records in question pertain to an alleged	1618
violation of division (E)(1) of section 4301.69 of the Revised	1619
Code, by any law enforcement officer or any prosecutor, or the	1620
assistants of a law enforcement officer or prosecutor, for the	1621
purpose of determining whether the person is eligible for	1622
diversion under division (E)(2) of section 4301.69 of the Revised	1623
Code;	1624

(5) At the request of a party in a civil action that is based	1625
on a case the records for which are the subject of a sealing order	1626
issued under section 2151.356 of the Revised Code, as needed for	1627
the civil action. The party also may copy the records as needed	1628
for the civil action. The sealed records shall be used solely in	1629
the civil action and are otherwise confidential and subject to the	1630
provisions of this section;	1631

(6) By the attorney general or an authorized employee of the	1632
attorney general or the court for purposes of determining whether	1633
a child is a public registry-qualified juvenile offender	1634
registrant, as defined in section 2950.01 of the Revised Code, for	1635
purposes of Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code.	1636

(F) No officer or employee of the state or any of its	1637
political subdivisions shall knowingly release, disseminate, or	1638
make available for any purpose involving employment, bonding,	1639
licensing, or education to any person or to any department,	1640
agency, or other instrumentality of the state or of any of its	1641
political subdivisions any information or other data concerning	1642
any arrest, taking into custody, complaint, indictment,	1643
information, trial, hearing, adjudication, or correctional	1644
supervision, the records of which have been sealed pursuant to	1645
section 2151.356 of the Revised Code and the release,	1646
dissemination, or making available of which is not expressly	1647
permitted by this section. Whoever violates this division is	1648
guilty of divulging confidential information, a misdemeanor of the	1649
fourth degree.	1650

(G) In any application for employment, license, or other	1651
right or privilege, any appearance as a witness, or any other	1652
inquiry, a person may not be questioned with respect to any arrest	1653
or taking into custody for which the records were sealed. If an	1654
inquiry is made in violation of this division, the person may	1655
respond as if the sealed arrest or taking into custody did not	1656
occur, and the person shall not be subject to any adverse action	1657
because of the arrest or taking into custody or the response.	1658

(H) The judgment rendered by the court under this chapter	1659
shall not impose any of the civil disabilities ordinarily imposed	1660
by conviction of a crime in that the child is not a criminal by	1661
reason of the adjudication, and no child shall be charged with or	1662
convicted of a crime in any court except as provided by this	1663
chapter. The disposition of a child under the judgment rendered or	1664
any evidence given in court shall not operate to disqualify a	1665
child in any future civil service examination, appointment, or	1666
application. Evidence of a judgment rendered and the disposition	1667
of a child under the judgment is not admissible to impeach the	1668
credibility of the child in any action or proceeding. Otherwise,	1669
the disposition of a child under the judgment rendered or any	1670
evidence given in court is admissible as evidence for or against	1671
the child in any action or proceeding in any court in accordance	1672
with the Rules of Evidence and also may be considered by any court	1673
as to the matter of sentence or to the granting of probation, and	1674
a court may consider the judgment rendered and the disposition of	1675
a child under that judgment for purposes of determining whether	1676
the child, for a future criminal conviction or guilty plea, is a	1677
repeat violent offender, as defined in section 2929.01 of the	1678
Revised Code.	1679

of the type described in division (A) or (B) of this section with	1934
the juvenile court to invoke the adult portion of the serious	1935
youthful offender dispositional sentence. If the prosecuting	1936
attorney declines a request to file a motion that was made by the	1937

in division (D) of this section on its own motion.	1941

(D) Upon the filing of a motion described in division (A),	1942
(B), or (C) of this section, the juvenile court may hold a hearing	1943
to determine whether to invoke the adult portion of a person's	1944
serious juvenile offender dispositional sentence. The juvenile	1945
court shall not invoke the adult portion of the dispositional	1946
sentence without a hearing. At the hearing the person who is the	1947
subject of the serious youthful offender disposition has the right	1948
to be present, to receive notice of the grounds upon which the	1949
adult sentence portion is sought to be invoked, to be represented	1950

mentally retarded person, the juvenile court shall consider that	1958
evidence in determining whether to invoke the adult portion of the	1959
serious youthful offender dispositional sentence.	1960

(E)(1) The juvenile court may invoke the adult portion of a	1961
person's serious youthful offender dispositional sentence if the	1962

(a) The person is serving the juvenile portion of a serious	1965
youthful offender dispositional sentence.	1966

admitted to a department of youth services facility, or criminal	1968
charges are pending against the person.	1969

division (A), (B), or (C) of this section, and the person's	1971

jurisdiction.	1974

(2) The court may modify the adult sentence the court invokes	1975
to consist of any lesser prison term that could be imposed for the	1976
offense and, in addition to the prison term or in lieu of the	1977
prison term if the prison term was not mandatory, any community	1978
control sanction that the offender was eligible to receive at	1979
sentencing.	1980

(F) If a juvenile court issues an order invoking the adult	1981
portion of a serious youthful offender dispositional sentence	1982
under division (E) of this section, the juvenile portion of the	1983
dispositional sentence shall terminate, and the department of	1984
youth services shall transfer the person to the department of	1985
rehabilitation and correction or place the person under another	1986
sanction imposed as part of the sentence. The juvenile court shall	1987
state in its order the total number of days that the person has	1988
been held in detention or in a facility operated by, or under	1989
contract with, the department of youth services under the juvenile	1990
portion of the dispositional sentence. The time the person must	1991
serve on a prison term imposed under the adult portion of the	1992
dispositional sentence shall be reduced by the total number of	1993
days specified in the order plus any additional days the person is	1994
held in a juvenile facility or in detention after the order is	1995
issued and before the person is transferred to the custody of the	1996
department of rehabilitation and correction. In no case shall the	1997
total prison term as calculated under this division exceed the	1998
maximum prison term available for an adult who is convicted of	1999
violating the same sections of the Revised Code.	2000

Any community control imposed as part of the adult sentence	2001
or as a condition of a judicial release from prison shall be under	2002
the supervision of the entity that provides adult probation	2003
services in the county. Any post-release control imposed after the	2004
offender otherwise is released from prison shall be supervised by	2005
the adult parole authority.	2006

(G) A child's attainment of eighteen or twenty-one years of	2007
age does not affect or terminate the ability or authority of the	2008
juvenile court to conduct a hearing or issue an order under this	2009
section.	2010

Sec. 2152.191.  If a child is adjudicated a delinquent child	2011
for committing a sexually oriented offense or a child-victim	2012
oriented offense, if the child is fourteen years of age or older	2013
at the time of committing the offense, and if the child committed	2014
the offense on or after January 1, 2002, both of the following	2015
apply:	2016

(A) Sections 2152.82 to 2152.862152.851 and Chapter 2950. of	2017
the Revised Code apply to the child and the adjudication.	2018

(B) In addition to any order of disposition it makes of the	2019
child under this chapter, the court may make any determination,	2020
adjudication, or order authorized under sections 2152.82 to	2021
2152.862152.851 and Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code and shall	2022
make any determination, adjudication, or order required under	2023
those sections and that chapter.	2024

Sec. 2152.22.  (A) When a child is committed to the legal	2025
custody of the department of youth services under this chapter,	2026
the juvenile court relinquishes control with respect to the child	2027
so committed, except as provided in divisions (B), (C), (D), and	2028
(H) of this section or in sections 2152.82 to 2152.862152.851 of	2029
the Revised Code. Subject to divisions (B), (C), and (D) of this	2030
section, sections 2151.353 and 2151.412 to 2151.421 of the Revised	2031
Code, sections 2152.82 to 2152.862152.851 of the Revised Code,	2032
and any other provision of law that specifies a different duration	2033
for a dispositional order, all other dispositional orders made by	2034
the court under this chapter shall be temporary and shall continue	2035
for a period that is designated by the court in its order, until	2036
terminated or modified by the court or until the child attains	2037
twenty-one years of age.	2038

The department shall not release the child from a department	2039
facility and as a result shall not discharge the child or order	2040
the child's release on supervised release prior to the expiration	2041
of the minimum period specified by the court in division (A)(1) of	2042
section 2152.16 of the Revised Code and any term of commitment	2043
imposed under section 2152.17 of the Revised Code or prior to the	2044
child's attainment of twenty-one years of age, except upon the	2045
order of a court pursuant to division (B), (C), or (D) of this	2046
section or in accordance with section 5139.54 of the Revised Code.	2047

(B)(1) Unless the court grants judicial release under	2048
division (D)(1)(b) of this section, the court that commits a	2049
delinquent child to the department of youth services may grant	2050
judicial release of the child to court supervision under this	2051
division during the first half of the prescribed minimum term for	2052
which the child was committed to the department or, if the child	2053
was committed to the department until the child attains twenty-one	2054
years of age, during the first half of the prescribed period of	2055
commitment that begins on the first day of commitment and ends on	2056
the child's twenty-first birthday, provided any commitment imposed	2057
under division (A), (B), (C), or (D) of section 2152.17 of the	2058
Revised Code has ended.	2059

(2) If the department desires to release a child during a	2060
period specified in division (B)(1) of this section, it shall	2061
request the court that committed the child to grant a judicial	2062
release of the child to court supervision under this division.	2063
During whichever of those periods is applicable, the child or the	2064
parents of the child also may request that court to grant a	2065
judicial release of the child to court supervision. Upon receipt	2066
of a request for a judicial release to court supervision under	2067
this division from the department, the child, or the child's	2068
parent, or upon its own motion, the court that committed the child	2069
shall do one of the following: approve the release by journal	2070
entry; schedule within thirty days after the request is received a	2071
time for a hearing on whether the child is to be released; or	2072
reject the request by journal entry without conducting a hearing.	2073

If the court rejects an initial request for a release under	2074
this division by the child or the child's parent, the child or the	2075
child's parent may make one additional request for a judicial	2076
release to court supervision within the applicable period. The	2077
additional request may be made no earlier than thirty days after	2078
the filing of the prior request for a judicial release to court	2079
supervision. Upon the filing of a second request for a judicial	2080
release to court supervision, the court shall either approve or	2081
disapprove the release by journal entry or schedule within thirty	2082
days after the request is received a time for a hearing on whether	2083
the child is to be released.	2084

(3) If a court schedules a hearing under division (B)(2) of	2085
this section, it may order the department to deliver the child to	2086
the court on the date set for the hearing and may order the	2087
department to present to the court a report on the child's	2088
progress in the institution to which the child was committed and	2089
recommendations for conditions of supervision of the child by the	2090
court after release. The court may conduct the hearing without the	2091
child being present. The court shall determine at the hearing	2092
whether the child should be granted a judicial release to court	2093
supervision.	2094

If the court approves the release under this division, it	2095
shall order its staff to prepare a written treatment and	2096
rehabilitation plan for the child that may include any conditions	2097
of the child's release that were recommended by the department and	2098
approved by the court. The committing court shall send the	2099
juvenile court of the county in which the child is placed a copy	2100
of the recommended plan. The court of the county in which the	2101
child is placed may adopt the recommended conditions set by the	2102
committing court as an order of the court and may add any	2103
additional consistent conditions it considers appropriate. If a	2104
child is granted a judicial release to court supervision, the	2105
release discharges the child from the custody of the department of	2106
youth services.	2107

(C)(1) Unless the court grants judicial release under	2108
division (D)(1)(b) of this section, the court that commits a	2109
delinquent child to the department of youth services may grant	2110
judicial release of the child to department of youth services	2111
supervision under this division during the second half of the	2112
prescribed minimum term for which the child was committed to the	2113
department or, if the child was committed to the department until	2114
the child attains twenty-one years of age, during the second half	2115
of the prescribed period of commitment that begins on the first	2116
day of commitment and ends on the child's twenty-first birthday,	2117
provided any commitment imposed under division (A), (B), (C), or	2118
(D) of section 2152.17 of the Revised Code has ended.	2119

(2) If the department desires to release a child during a	2120
period specified in division (C)(1) of this section, it shall	2121
request the court that committed the child to grant a judicial	2122
release to department of youth services supervision. During	2123
whichever of those periods is applicable, the child or the child's	2124
parent also may request the court that committed the child to	2125
grant a judicial release to department of youth services	2126
supervision. Upon receipt of a request for judicial release to	2127
department of youth services supervision, the child, or the	2128
child's parent, or upon its own motion at any time during that	2129
period, the court shall do one of the following: approve the	2130
release by journal entry; schedule a time within thirty days after	2131
receipt of the request for a hearing on whether the child is to be	2132
released; or reject the request by journal entry without	2133
conducting a hearing.	2134

If the court rejects an initial request for release under	2135
this division by the child or the child's parent, the child or the	2136
child's parent may make one or more subsequent requests for a	2137
release within the applicable period, but may make no more than	2138
one request during each period of ninety days that the child is in	2139
a secure department facility after the filing of a prior request	2140
for early release. Upon the filing of a request for release under	2141
this division subsequent to an initial request, the court shall	2142
either approve or disapprove the release by journal entry or	2143
schedule a time within thirty days after receipt of the request	2144
for a hearing on whether the child is to be released.	2145

(3) If a court schedules a hearing under division (C)(2) of	2146
this section, it may order the department to deliver the child to	2147
the court on the date set for the hearing and shall order the	2148
department to present to the court at that time a treatment plan	2149
for the child's post-institutional care. The court may conduct the	2150
hearing without the child being present. The court shall determine	2151
at the hearing whether the child should be granted a judicial	2152
release to department of youth services supervision.	2153

If the court approves the judicial release to department of	2154
youth services supervision, the department shall prepare a written	2155
treatment and rehabilitation plan for the child pursuant to	2156
division (F) of this section that shall include the conditions of	2157
the child's release. It shall send the committing court and the	2158
juvenile court of the county in which the child is placed a copy	2159
of the plan. The court of the county in which the child is placed	2160
may adopt the conditions set by the department as an order of the	2161
court and may add any additional consistent conditions it	2162
considers appropriate, provided that the court may not add any	2163
condition that decreases the level or degree of supervision	2164
specified by the department in its plan, that substantially	2165
increases the financial burden of supervision that will be	2166
experienced by the department, or that alters the placement	2167
specified by the department in its plan. If the court of the	2168
county in which the child is placed adds to the department's plan	2169
any additional conditions, it shall enter those additional	2170
conditions in its journal and shall send to the department a copy	2171
of the journal entry of the additional conditions.	2172

If the court approves the judicial release to department of	2173
youth services supervision, the actual date on which the	2174
department shall release the child is contingent upon the	2175
department finding a suitable placement for the child. If the	2176
child is to be returned to the child's home, the department shall	2177
return the child on the date that the court schedules for the	2178
child's release or shall bear the expense of any additional time	2179
that the child remains in a department facility. If the child is	2180
unable to return to the child's home, the department shall	2181
exercise reasonable diligence in finding a suitable placement for	2182
the child, and the child shall remain in a department facility	2183
while the department finds the suitable placement.	2184

(D)(1) Subject to division (D)(3) of this section, the court	2185
that commits a delinquent child to the department of youth	2186
services may grant judicial release of the child under this	2187
division at any time after the expiration of one of the following	2188
periods of time:	2189

(a) Except as otherwise provided in division (D)(1)(b) of	2190
this section, if the child was committed to the department for a	2191
prescribed minimum period and a maximum period not to exceed the	2192
child's attainment of twenty-one years, the court may grant	2193
judicial release of the child at any time after the expiration of	2194
the prescribed minimum term for which the child was committed to	2195
the department.	2196

(b) If the child was committed to the department for both one	2197
or more definite periods under division (A), (B), (C), or (D) of	2198
section 2152.17 of the Revised Code and a period of the type	2199
described in division (D)(1)(a) of this section, all of the	2200
prescribed minimum periods of commitment imposed under division	2201
(A), (B), (C), or (D) of section 2152.17 of the Revised Code and	2202
the prescribed period of commitment of the type described in	2203
division (D)(1)(a) of this section shall be aggregated for	2204
purposes of this division, and the court may grant judicial	2205
release of the child at any time after the expiration of one year	2206
after the child begins serving the aggregate period of commitment.	2207

(2) If a court grants a judicial release of a child under	2208
division (D)(1) of this section, the release shall be a judicial	2209
release to department of youth services supervision, if the	2210
release is granted during a period described in division (C)(1) of	2211
this section, and the second and third paragraphs of division	2212
(C)(3) of this section apply regarding the release. In all other	2213
cases, the release shall be a judicial release to court	2214
supervision, and the second paragraph of division (B)(3) of this	2215
section applies regarding the release.	2216

(3) A court at the time of making the disposition of a child	2217
shall provide notice in the order of disposition that the judge is	2218
retaining jurisdiction over the child for the purpose of a	2219
possible grant of judicial release of the child under division	2220
(D)(1) of this section. The failure of a court to provide this	2221
notice does not affect the authority of the court to grant a	2222
judicial release under that division and does not constitute	2223
grounds for setting aside the child's delinquent child	2224
adjudication or disposition or for granting any post-adjudication	2225
relief to the child.	2226

(4) The department of youth services, a child committed to	2227
the department, or the parents of the child, during a period	2228
specified in division (D)(1) of this section, may request the	2229
court that committed the child to grant a judicial release of the	2230
child under that division. Upon receipt of a request for judicial	2231
release of a child under this division from the department, the	2232
child, or the child's parent, or upon its own motion, the court	2233
that committed the child shall do one of the following:	2234

(a) Approve the request by journal entry;

2235

(b) Schedule within thirty days after the request is received	2236
a time for a hearing on whether the child is to be released;	2237

(c) Reject the request by journal entry without conducting a	2238
hearing.	2239

If the court rejects an initial request for a release under	2240
this division by the child or the child's parent, division (C)(2)	2241
of this section applies regarding the making of additional	2242
requests.	2243

If the court schedules a hearing under this division to	2244
consider the judicial release, the first paragraph of division	2245
(B)(3) of this section applies regarding the hearing.	2246

(E) If a child is released under division (B), (C), or (D) of	2247
this section and the court of the county in which the child is	2248
placed has reason to believe that the child's deportment is not in	2249
accordance with the conditions of the child's judicial release,	2250
the court of the county in which the child is placed shall	2251
schedule a time for a hearing to determine whether the child	2252
violated any of the post-release conditions, and, if the child was	2253
released under division (C) of this section or under division (D)	2254
of this section under department supervision, divisions (A) to (E)	2255
of section 5139.52 of the Revised Code apply regarding the child.	2256

If that court determines at the hearing that the child	2257
violated any of the post-release conditions, the court, if it	2258
determines that the violation was a serious violation, may order	2259
the child to be returned to the department for	2260
institutionalization, consistent with the original order of	2261
commitment of the child, or in any case may make any other	2262
disposition of the child authorized by law that the court	2263
considers proper. If the court of the county in which the child is	2264
placed orders the child to be returned to a department of youth	2265
services institution, the time during which the child was held in	2266
a secure department facility prior to the child's judicial release	2267
shall be considered as time served in fulfilling the prescribed	2268
period of institutionalization that is applicable to the child	2269
under the child's original order of commitment. If the court	2270
orders the child returned to a department institution, the child	2271
shall remain in institutional care for a minimum of three months	2272
or until the child successfully completes a revocation program of	2273
a duration of not less than thirty days operated either by the	2274
department or by an entity with which the department has	2275
contracted to provide a revocation program.	2276

more community control sanctions of at least one year's duration	4179
that are available for persons sentenced by the court within the	4180

(2) If division (B)(1) of this section does not apply, except	4191
as provided in division (E), (F), or (G) of this section, in	4192

felony of the fourth or fifth degree, the sentencing court shall	4194
comply with the purposes and principles of sentencing under	4195
section 2929.11 of the Revised Code and with section 2929.12 of	4196
the Revised Code.	4197

(C) Except as provided in division (D), (E), (F), or (G) of	4198
this section, in determining whether to impose a prison term as a	4199
sanction for a felony of the third degree or a felony drug offense	4200
that is a violation of a provision of Chapter 2925. of the Revised	4201
Code and that is specified as being subject to this division for	4202
purposes of sentencing, the sentencing court shall comply with the	4203
purposes and principles of sentencing under section 2929.11 of the	4204
Revised Code and with section 2929.12 of the Revised Code.	4205

(D)(1) Except as provided in division (E) or (F) of this	4206
section, for a felony of the first or second degree, for a felony	4207
drug offense that is a violation of any provision of Chapter	4208
2925., 3719., or 4729. of the Revised Code for which a presumption	4209
in favor of a prison term is specified as being applicable, and	4210
for a violation of division (A)(4) or (B) of section 2907.05 of	4211
the Revised Code for which a presumption in favor of a prison term	4212
is specified as being applicable, it is presumed that a prison	4213
term is necessary in order to comply with the purposes and	4214
principles of sentencing under section 2929.11 of the Revised	4215
Code. Division (D)(2) of this section does not apply to a	4216
presumption established under this division for a violation of	4217
division (A)(4) of section 2907.05 of the Revised Code.	4218

(2) Notwithstanding the presumption established under	4219
division (D)(1) of this section for the offenses listed in that	4220
division other than a violation of division (A)(4) or (B) of	4221
section 2907.05 of the Revised Code, the sentencing court may	4222
impose a community control sanction or a combination of community	4223
control sanctions instead of a prison term on an offender for a	4224
felony of the first or second degree or for a felony drug offense	4225
that is a violation of any provision of Chapter 2925., 3719., or	4226
4729. of the Revised Code for which a presumption in favor of a	4227
prison term is specified as being applicable if it makes both of	4228
the following findings:	4229

(a) A community control sanction or a combination of	4230
community control sanctions would adequately punish the offender	4231
and protect the public from future crime, because the applicable	4232
factors under section 2929.12 of the Revised Code indicating a	4233
lesser likelihood of recidivism outweigh the applicable factors	4234
under that section indicating a greater likelihood of recidivism.	4235

(b) A community control sanction or a combination of	4236
community control sanctions would not demean the seriousness of	4237
the offense, because one or more factors under section 2929.12 of	4238
the Revised Code that indicate that the offender's conduct was	4239
less serious than conduct normally constituting the offense are	4240
applicable, and they outweigh the applicable factors under that	4241
section that indicate that the offender's conduct was more serious	4242
than conduct normally constituting the offense.	4243

(E)(1) Except as provided in division (F) of this section,	4244
for any drug offense that is a violation of any provision of	4245
Chapter 2925. of the Revised Code and that is a felony of the	4246
third, fourth, or fifth degree, the applicability of a presumption	4247
under division (D) of this section in favor of a prison term or of	4248
division (B) or (C) of this section in determining whether to	4249
impose a prison term for the offense shall be determined as	4250
specified in section 2925.02, 2925.03, 2925.04, 2925.05, 2925.06,	4251
2925.11, 2925.13, 2925.22, 2925.23, 2925.36, or 2925.37 of the	4252
Revised Code, whichever is applicable regarding the violation.	4253

(2) If an offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to	4254
a felony violates the conditions of a community control sanction	4255
imposed for the offense solely by reason of producing positive	4256
results on a drug test, the court, as punishment for the violation	4257
of the sanction, shall not order that the offender be imprisoned	4258
unless the court determines on the record either of the following:	4259

(a) The offender had been ordered as a sanction for the	4260
felony to participate in a drug treatment program, in a drug	4261
education program, or in narcotics anonymous or a similar program,	4262
and the offender continued to use illegal drugs after a reasonable	4263
period of participation in the program.	4264

(b) The imprisonment of the offender for the violation is	4265
consistent with the purposes and principles of sentencing set	4266
forth in section 2929.11 of the Revised Code.	4267

(3) A court that sentences an offender for a drug abuse	4268
offense that is a felony of the third, fourth, or fifth degree may	4269
require that the offender be assessed by a properly credentialed	4270

community control sanction and after considering the written	4274
assessment, the court may impose a community control sanction that	4275
includes treatment and recovery support services authorized by	4276
section 3793.02 of the Revised Code. If the court imposes	4277
treatment and recovery support services as a community control	4278

(G) Notwithstanding divisions (A) to (E) of this section, if	4416
an offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree felony OVI	4417
offense or for a third degree felony OVI offense, the court shall	4418
impose upon the offender a mandatory term of local incarceration	4419
or a mandatory prison term in accordance with the following:	4420

(1) If the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree	4421
felony OVI offense and if the offender has not been convicted of	4422
and has not pleaded guilty to a specification of the type	4423
described in section 2941.1413 of the Revised Code, the court may	4424
impose upon the offender a mandatory term of local incarceration	4425
of sixty days or one hundred twenty days as specified in division	4426
(G)(1)(d) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code. The court shall	4427
not reduce the term pursuant to section 2929.20, 2967.193, or any	4428
other provision of the Revised Code. The court that imposes a	4429
mandatory term of local incarceration under this division shall	4430
specify whether the term is to be served in a jail, a	4431
community-based correctional facility, a halfway house, or an	4432
alternative residential facility, and the offender shall serve the	4433
term in the type of facility specified by the court. A mandatory	4434
term of local incarceration imposed under division (G)(1) of this	4435
section is not subject to any other Revised Code provision that	4436
pertains to a prison term except as provided in division (A)(1) of	4437
this section.	4438

(2) If the offender is being sentenced for a third degree	4439
felony OVI offense, or if the offender is being sentenced for a	4440
fourth degree felony OVI offense and the court does not impose a	4441
mandatory term of local incarceration under division (G)(1) of	4442
this section, the court shall impose upon the offender a mandatory	4443
prison term of one, two, three, four, or five years if the	4444
offender also is convicted of or also pleads guilty to a	4445
specification of the type described in section 2941.1413 of the	4446
Revised Code or shall impose upon the offender a mandatory prison	4447
term of sixty days or one hundred twenty days as specified in	4448
division (G)(1)(d) or (e) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code	4449
if the offender has not been convicted of and has not pleaded	4450
guilty to a specification of that type. Subject to divisions (C)	4451
to (I) of section 2967.19 of the Revised Code, the court shall not	4452
reduce the term pursuant to section 2929.20, 2967.19, 2967.193, or	4453
any other provision of the Revised Code. The offender shall serve	4454
the one-, two-, three-, four-, or five-year mandatory prison term	4455
consecutively to and prior to the prison term imposed for the	4456
underlying offense and consecutively to any other mandatory prison	4457
term imposed in relation to the offense. In no case shall an	4458
offender who once has been sentenced to a mandatory term of local	4459
incarceration pursuant to division (G)(1) of this section for a	4460
fourth degree felony OVI offense be sentenced to another mandatory	4461
term of local incarceration under that division for any violation	4462
of division (A) of section 4511.19 of the Revised Code. In	4463
addition to the mandatory prison term described in division (G)(2)	4464
of this section, the court may sentence the offender to a	4465
community control sanction under section 2929.16 or 2929.17 of the	4466
Revised Code, but the offender shall serve the prison term prior	4467
to serving the community control sanction. The department of	4468
rehabilitation and correction may place an offender sentenced to a	4469
mandatory prison term under this division in an intensive program	4470
prison established pursuant to section 5120.033 of the Revised	4471
Code if the department gave the sentencing judge prior notice of	4472
its intent to place the offender in an intensive program prison	4473
established under that section and if the judge did not notify the	4474
department that the judge disapproved the placement. Upon the	4475
establishment of the initial intensive program prison pursuant to	4476
section 5120.033 of the Revised Code that is privately operated	4477
and managed by a contractor pursuant to a contract entered into	4478
under section 9.06 of the Revised Code, both of the following	4479
apply:	4480

(a) The department of rehabilitation and correction shall	4481
make a reasonable effort to ensure that a sufficient number of	4482
offenders sentenced to a mandatory prison term under this division	4483
are placed in the privately operated and managed prison so that	4484
the privately operated and managed prison has full occupancy.	4485

(b) Unless the privately operated and managed prison has full	4486
occupancy, the department of rehabilitation and correction shall	4487
not place any offender sentenced to a mandatory prison term under	4488
this division in any intensive program prison established pursuant	4489
to section 5120.033 of the Revised Code other than the privately	4490
operated and managed prison.	4491

(H) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented	4492
offense or child-victim oriented offense that is a felony	4493
committed on or after January 1, 1997, the judge shall require the	4494
offender to submit to a DNA specimen collection procedure pursuant	4495
to section 2901.07 of the Revised Code.	4496

(I) If an offender is being sentenced for a sexually oriented	4497
offense or a child-victim oriented offense committed on or after	4498
January 1, 1997, the judge shall include in the sentence a summary	4499
of the offender's duties imposed under sections 2950.04, 2950.041,	4500
2950.05, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code and the duration of the	4501
duties. The judge shall inform the offender, at the time of	4502
sentencing, of those duties and of their duration. If required	4503
under division (A)(2) of section 2950.03 of the Revised Code, the	4504
judge shall perform the duties specified in that section, or, if	4505
required under division (A)(6)(5) of section 2950.03 of the	4506
Revised Code, the judge shall perform the duties specified in that	4507
division.	4508

(J)(1) Except as provided in division (J)(2) of this section,	4509
when considering sentencing factors under this section in relation	4510
to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an attempt	4511
to commit an offense in violation of section 2923.02 of the	4512
Revised Code, the sentencing court shall consider the factors	4513
applicable to the felony category of the violation of section	4514
2923.02 of the Revised Code instead of the factors applicable to	4515
the felony category of the offense attempted.	4516

(2) When considering sentencing factors under this section in	4517
relation to an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to an	4518
attempt to commit a drug abuse offense for which the penalty is	4519
determined by the amount or number of unit doses of the controlled	4520
substance involved in the drug abuse offense, the sentencing court	4521
shall consider the factors applicable to the felony category that	4522
the drug abuse offense attempted would be if that drug abuse	4523
offense had been committed and had involved an amount or number of	4524
unit doses of the controlled substance that is within the next	4525
lower range of controlled substance amounts than was involved in	4526
the attempt.	4527

(K) As used in this section:

4528

(1) "Drug abuse offense" has the same meaning as in section	4529
2925.01 of the Revised Code.	4530

(2) "Qualifying assault offense" means a violation of section	4531
2903.13 of the Revised Code for which the penalty provision in	4532
division (C)(7)(b) or (C)(8)(b) of that section applies.	4533

(L) At the time of sentencing an offender for any sexually	4534
oriented offense, if the offender is a tier III sex	4535
offender/child-victim offender or sexual predator relative to that	4536
offense and the offender does not serve a prison term or jail	4537
term, the court may require that the offender be monitored by	4538
means of a global positioning device. If the court requires such	4539
monitoring, the cost of monitoring shall be borne by the offender.	4540
If the offender is indigent, the cost of compliance shall be paid	4541
by the crime victims reparations fund.	4542

Sec. 2929.19.  (A)(1) The court shall hold a sentencing	4543
hearing before imposing a sentence under this chapter upon an	4544
offender who was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a felony and	4545
before resentencing an offender who was convicted of or pleaded	4546
guilty to a felony and whose case was remanded pursuant to section	4547
2953.07 or 2953.08 of the Revised Code. At the hearing, the	4548
offender, the prosecuting attorney, the victim or the victim's	4549
representative in accordance with section 2930.14 of the Revised	4550
Code, and, with the approval of the court, any other person may	4551
present information relevant to the imposition of sentence in the	4552
case. The court shall inform the offender of the verdict of the	4553
jury or finding of the court and ask the offender whether the	4554
offender has anything to say as to why sentence should not be	4555
imposed upon the offender.	4556

(2) Except as otherwise provided in this division, before	4557
imposing sentence on an offender who is being sentenced for a	4558
sexually oriented offense committed prior to January 1, 2008, the	4559
court shall conduct a hearing in accordance with division (B) of	4560
section 2950.09 of the Revised Code to determine whether the	4561
offender is a sexual predator, and the court also shall comply	4562
with division (E) of that section. The court shall not conduct the	4563
hearing in circumstances in which section 2950.09 of the Revised	4564
Code specifies that the hearing is not to be conducted.	4565

Before imposing sentence on an offender who is being	4566
sentenced for a child-victim oriented offense committed prior to	4567
January 1, 2008, the court shall conduct a hearing in accordance	4568
with division (B) of section 2950.091 of the Revised Code to	4569
determine whether the offender is a child-victim predator, and the	4570
court also shall comply with division (E) of that section.	4571

(B)(1) At the sentencing hearing, the court, before imposing	4572
sentence, shall consider the record, any information presented at	4573
the hearing by any person pursuant to division (A) of this	4574
section, and, if one was prepared, the presentence investigation	4575
report made pursuant to section 2951.03 of the Revised Code or	4576
Criminal Rule 32.2, and any victim impact statement made pursuant	4577
to section 2947.051 of the Revised Code.	4578

(2) Subject to division (B)(3) of this section, if the	4579
sentencing court determines at the sentencing hearing that a	4580
prison term is necessary or required, the court shall do all of	4581
the following:	4582

(a) Impose a stated prison term and, if the court imposes a	4583
mandatory prison term, notify the offender that the prison term is	4584
a mandatory prison term;	4585

(b) In addition to any other information, include in the	4586
sentencing entry the name and section reference to the offense or	4587
offenses, the sentence or sentences imposed and whether the	4588
sentence or sentences contain mandatory prison terms, if sentences	4589
are imposed for multiple counts whether the sentences are to be	4590
served concurrently or consecutively, and the name and section	4591
reference of any specification or specifications for which	4592
sentence is imposed and the sentence or sentences imposed for the	4593
specification or specifications;	4594

(c) Notify the offender that the offender will be supervised	4595
under section 2967.28 of the Revised Code after the offender	4596
leaves prison if the offender is being sentenced for a felony of	4597
the first degree or second degree, for a felony sex offense, or	4598
for a felony of the third degree that is not a felony sex offense	4599
and in the commission of which the offender caused or threatened	4600
to cause physical harm to a person. This division applies with	4601
respect to all prison terms imposed for an offense of a type	4602
described in this division, including a term imposed for any such	4603
offense that is a risk reduction sentence, as defined in section	4604
2967.28 of the Revised Code. If a court imposes a sentence	4605
including a prison term of a type described in division (B)(2)(c)	4606
of this section on or after July 11, 2006, the failure of a court	4607
to notify the offender pursuant to division (B)(2)(c) of this	4608
section that the offender will be supervised under section 2967.28	4609
of the Revised Code after the offender leaves prison or to include	4610
in the judgment of conviction entered on the journal a statement	4611
to that effect does not negate, limit, or otherwise affect the	4612
mandatory period of supervision that is required for the offender	4613
under division (B) of section 2967.28 of the Revised Code. Section	4614
2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if, prior to July 11, 2006, a	4615
court imposed a sentence including a prison term of a type	4616
described in division (B)(2)(c) of this section and failed to	4617
notify the offender pursuant to division (B)(2)(c) of this section	4618
regarding post-release control or to include in the judgment of	4619
conviction entered on the journal or in the sentence a statement	4620
regarding post-release control.	4621

(d) Notify the offender that the offender may be supervised	4622
under section 2967.28 of the Revised Code after the offender	4623
leaves prison if the offender is being sentenced for a felony of	4624
the third, fourth, or fifth degree that is not subject to division	4625
(B)(2)(c) of this section. This division applies with respect to	4626
all prison terms imposed for an offense of a type described in	4627
this division, including a term imposed for any such offense that	4628
is a risk reduction sentence, as defined in section 2967.28 of the	4629
Revised Code. Section 2929.191 of the Revised Code applies if,	4630
prior to July 11, 2006, a court imposed a sentence including a	4631
prison term of a type described in division (B)(2)(d) of this	4632
section and failed to notify the offender pursuant to division	4633
(B)(2)(d) of this section regarding post-release control or to	4634
include in the judgment of conviction entered on the journal or in	4635
the sentence a statement regarding post-release control.	4636

(e) Notify the offender that, if a period of supervision is	4637
imposed following the offender's release from prison, as described	4638
in division (B)(2)(c) or (d) of this section, and if the offender	4639
violates that supervision or a condition of post-release control	4640
imposed under division (B) of section 2967.131 of the Revised	4641
Code, the parole board may impose a prison term, as part of the	4642
sentence, of up to one-half of the stated prison term originally	4643
imposed upon the offender. If a court imposes a sentence including	4644
a prison term on or after July 11, 2006, the failure of a court to	4645
notify the offender pursuant to division (B)(2)(e) of this section	4646
that the parole board may impose a prison term as described in	4647
division (B)(2)(e) of this section for a violation of that	4648
supervision or a condition of post-release control imposed under	4649
division (B) of section 2967.131 of the Revised Code or to include	4650
in the judgment of conviction entered on the journal a statement	4651
to that effect does not negate, limit, or otherwise affect the	4652
authority of the parole board to so impose a prison term for a	4653
violation of that nature if, pursuant to division (D)(1) of	4654

is applicable to the offender who is serving a prison term, and	4666

under section 2967.191 of the Revised Code. The court's	4675

sentencing court to correct any error made in making a	4687

to January 1, 2008, or to a person who is or has been adjudicated	5527
a delinquent child for a sexually oriented offense or child-victim	5528
oriented offense committed prior to January 1, 2008, apply with	5529
respect to such persons.	5530

(2) Except as provided in division (B)(1) of this section,	5531
the provisions of this chapter and of Chapter 2152. of the Revised	5532
Code as they existed prior to July 1, 2007, apply with respect to	5533
a person who is or has been convicted of a sexually oriented	5534

January 1, 2008, or to a person who is or has been adjudicated a	5536
delinquent child for a sexually oriented offense or child-victim	5537
oriented offense committed prior to January 1, 2008, except to the	5538
extent that by their nature they clearly would be inapplicable.	5539

Sec. 2950.02.  (A) The general assembly hereby determines and	5540
declares that it recognizes and finds all of the following:	5541

(1) If the public is provided adequate notice and information	5542
about offenders and delinquent children who commit sexually	5543
oriented offenses or who commit child-victim oriented offenses,	5544
members of the public and communities can develop constructive	5545
plans to prepare themselves and their children for the offender's	5546
or delinquent child's release from imprisonment, a prison term, or	5547
other confinement or detention. This allows members of the public	5548
and communities to meet with members of law enforcement agencies	5549
to prepare and obtain information about the rights and	5550
responsibilities of the public and the communities and to provide	5551
education and counseling to their children.	5552

(2) Sex offenders and child-victim offenders pose a risk of	5553
engaging in further sexually abusive behavior even after being	5554
released from imprisonment, a prison term, or other confinement or	5555
detention, and protection of members of the public from sex	5556
offenders and child-victim offenders is a paramount governmental	5557
interest.	5558

(3) The penal, juvenile, and mental health components of the	5559
justice system of this state are largely hidden from public view,	5560
and a lack of information from any component may result in the	5561
failure of the system to satisfy this paramount governmental	5562
interest of public safety described in division (A)(2) of this	5563
section.	5564

(4) Overly restrictive confidentiality and liability laws	5565
governing the release of information about sex offenders and	5566
child-victim offenders have reduced the willingness to release	5567
information that could be appropriately released under the public	5568
disclosure laws and have increased risks of public safety.	5569

(5) A person who is found to be a sex offender or a	5570
child-victim offender has a reduced expectation of privacy because	5571
of the public's interest in public safety and in the effective	5572
operation of government.	5573

(6) The release of information about sex offenders and	5574
child-victim offenders to public agencies and the general public	5575
will further the governmental interests of public safety and	5576
public scrutiny of the criminal, juvenile, and mental health	5577
systems as long as the information released is rationally related	5578
to the furtherance of those goals.	5579

(B) The general assembly hereby declares that, in providing	5580
in this chapter for registration regarding offenders and certain	5581
delinquent children who have committed sexually oriented offenses	5582
or who have committed child-victim oriented offenses and for	5583
community notification regarding tier III sex	5584
offenders/child-victim offenders, sexual predators, child-victim	5585
predators, habitual sex offenders, and habitual child-victim	5586
offenders who are criminal offenders, public registry-qualified	5587
juvenile offender registrants, and certain other juvenile offender	5588
registrants who are about to be or have been released from	5589
imprisonment, a prison term, or other confinement or detention and	5590
who will live in or near a particular neighborhood or who	5591
otherwise will live in or near a particular neighborhood, it is	5592
the general assembly's intent to protect the safety and general	5593
welfare of the people of this state. The general assembly further	5594
declares that it is the policy of this state to require the	5595
exchange in accordance with this chapter of relevant information	5596
about sex offenders and child-victim offenders among public	5597
agencies and officials and to authorize the release in accordance	5598
with this chapter of necessary and relevant information about sex	5599
offenders and child-victim offenders to members of the general	5600
public as a means of assuring public protection and that the	5601
exchange or release of that information is not punitive.	5602

Sec. 2950.03. (A) Each person who has been convicted of, is	5603
convicted of, has pleaded guilty to, or pleads guilty to a	5604
sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense and	5605
who has a duty to register pursuant to section 2950.04 or 2950.041	5606
of the Revised Code and each person who is adjudicated a	5607
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense or a	5608
child-victim oriented offense and who is classified a juvenile	5609
offender registrant based on that adjudication shall be provided	5610
notice in accordance with this section of the offender's or	5611
delinquent child's duties imposed under sections 2950.04,	5612
2950.041, 2950.05, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code and of the	5613
offender's duties to similarly register, provide notice of a	5614
change, and verify addresses in another state if the offender	5615
resides, is temporarily domiciled, attends a school or institution	5616
of higher education, or is employed in a state other than this	5617
state. The following official shall provide the notice required	5618

term or is under that confinement, subject to division (A)(5) of	5625
this section, the official in charge of the jail, workhouse, state	5626
correctional institution, or other institution in which the	5627
offender serves the prison term, term of imprisonment, or	5628
confinement, or a designee of that official, shall provide the	5629

any type of supervised release or before the offender otherwise is	5631
released from the prison term, term of imprisonment, or	5632
confinement.	5633

(2) Regardless of when the person committed the sexually	5634
oriented offense or child-victim oriented offense, if the person	5635

court issued under this division.	6107

in accordance with this division within the applicable sixty-day	6109
period specified in this division, the failure constitutes a	6110
waiver by the offender or delinquent child of the offender's or	6111
delinquent child's right to a hearing under this division, and the	6112
offender or delinquent child is bound by the determinations of the	6113
attorney general contained in the registered letter sent to the	6114
offender or child.	6115

division (B)(6) of this section.	8248

(6) Except as otherwise provided in this division, if the	8249
person is an offender or delinquent child who was convicted of,	8250
pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a delinquent child for	8251
committing a sexually oriented offense or child-victim oriented	8252
offense that was committed prior to January 1, 2008, and if	8253
neither division (B)(4) nor division (B)(5) of this section	8254
applies to the offender or delinquent child, the offender's or	8255
delinquent child's duty to comply with those sections continues	8256
for ten years from the date of the offender's or delinquent	8257
child's initial registration. If the judge who made the	8258
disposition for a delinquent child to whom this division applies	8259
or that judge's successor in office subsequently enters a	8260
determination pursuant to section 2152.84 or 2152.85 of the	8261
Revised Code that the delinquent child no longer is to be	8262
classified a juvenile offender registrant, the delinquent child's	8263
duty to comply with those sections terminates upon the court's	8264
entry of the determination.	8265

(C)(1) If an offender has been convicted of or pleaded guilty	8266
to a sexually oriented offense and the offender subsequently is	8267
convicted of or pleads guilty to another sexually oriented offense	8268
or a child-victim oriented offense, if an offender has been	8269
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense	8270
and the offender subsequently is convicted of or pleads guilty to	8271
another child-victim oriented offense or a sexually oriented	8272
offense, if a delinquent child has been adjudicated a delinquent	8273
child for committing a sexually oriented offense and is classified	8274
a juvenile offender registrant or is an out-of-state juvenile	8275
offender registrant and the child subsequently is adjudicated a	8276
delinquent child for committing another sexually oriented offense	8277
or a child-victim oriented offense and is classified a juvenile	8278
offender registrant relative to that offense or subsequently is	8279
convicted of or pleads guilty to another sexually oriented offense	8280
or a child-victim oriented offense, or if a delinquent child has	8281
been adjudicated a delinquent child for committing a child-victim	8282
oriented offense and is classified a juvenile offender registrant	8283
or is an out-of-state juvenile offender registrant and the child	8284
subsequently is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing	8285
another child-victim oriented offense or a sexually oriented	8286
offense and is classified a juvenile offender registrant relative	8287
to that offense or subsequently is convicted of or pleads guilty	8288
to another child-victim oriented offense or a sexually oriented	8289
offense, the period of time for which the offender or delinquent	8290
child must comply with the sections specified in division (A) of	8291
this section shall be separately calculated pursuant to divisions	8292
(A)(1) to (8) and (B)(1) to (3)(6) of this section for each of the	8293
sexually oriented offenses and child-victim oriented offenses, and	8294
the offender or delinquent child shall comply with each separately	8295
calculated period of time independently.	8296

If a delinquent child has been adjudicated a delinquent child	8297
for committing a sexually oriented offense or a child-victim	8298
oriented offense, is classified a juvenile offender registrant or	8299
is an out-of-state juvenile offender registrant relative to that	8300
offense, and, after attaining eighteen years of age, subsequently	8301
is convicted of or pleads guilty to another sexually oriented	8302
offense or child-victim oriented offense, the subsequent	8303
conviction or guilty plea does not limit, affect, or supersede the	8304
duties imposed upon the delinquent child under this chapter	8305
relative to the delinquent child's classification as a juvenile	8306
offender registrant or as an out-of-state juvenile offender	8307
registrant, and the delinquent child shall comply with both those	8308
duties and the duties imposed under this chapter relative to the	8309
subsequent conviction or guilty plea.	8310

(2) If a delinquent child has been adjudicated a delinquent	8311
child for committing a sexually oriented offense or a child-victim	8312
oriented offense and is classified a juvenile offender registrant	8313
relative to the offense and if the juvenile judge or the judge's	8314
successor in office subsequently reclassifies the offense tier in	8315
which the child is classified pursuant to section 2152.84 or	8316
2152.85 of the Revised Code or determines pursuant to either	8317
section that the child no longer is a sexual predator,	8318
child-victim predator, habitual sex offender, or habitual	8319
child-victim offender, whichever is applicable, the judge's	8320
subsequent determination to reclassify the child does not affect	8321
the date of commencement of the delinquent child's duty to comply	8322
with sections 2950.04, 2950.041, 2950.05, and 2950.06 of the	8323
Revised Code as determined under division (A) of this section. The	8324
child's duty to comply with those sections after the	8325
reclassification is a continuation of the child's duty to comply	8326
with the sections that was in effect prior to the	8327
reclassification, and the duty shall continue for the period of	8328
time specified in division (B)(1), (2), or (3), (4), (5), or (6)	8329
of this section, whichever is applicable.	8330

If, prior to January 1, 2008, an offender had a duty to	8331
comply with the sections specified in division (A) of this section	8332
as a result of a conviction of or plea of guilty to a sexually	8333
oriented offense or child-victim oriented offense as those terms	8334
were defined in section 2950.01 of the Revised Code prior to	8335
January 1, 2008, or a delinquent child had a duty to comply with	8336
those sections as a result of an adjudication as a delinquent	8337
child for committing one of those offenses as they were defined	8338
prior to January 1, 2008, the period of time specified in division	8339
(B)(1), (2), or (3), (4), (5), or (6) of this section on and after	8340
January 1, 2008, for which a person must comply with sections	8341
2950.04, 2950.041, 2950.05, and 2950.06 of the Revised Code	8342
applies to the person, automatically replaces the period of time	8343
for which the person had to comply with those sections prior to	8344
January 1, 2008, and is a continuation of the person's duty to	8345
comply with the sections that was in effect prior to the	8346
reclassification. If, prior to January 1, 2008, an offender or a	8347
delinquent child had a duty to comply with the sections specified	8348
in division (A) of this section, the offender's or delinquent	8349
child's classification as a tier I sex offender/child-victim	8350
offender, a tier II sex offender/child-victim offender, or a tier	8351
III sex offender/child-victim offender for purposes of that period	8352
of time shall be determined as specified in section 2950.031 or	8353
2950.032 of the Revised Code, as applicable.	8354

(D) The duty of an offender or delinquent child to register	8355
under this chapter is tolled for any period during which the	8356
offender or delinquent child is returned to confinement in a	8357
secure facility for any reason or imprisoned for an offense when	8358
the confinement in a secure facility or imprisonment occurs	8359
subsequent to the date determined pursuant to division (A) of this	8360
section. The offender's or delinquent child's duty to register	8361
under this chapter resumes upon the offender's or delinquent	8362
child's release from confinement in a secure facility or	8363
imprisonment.	8364

(E) An offender or delinquent child who has been or is	8365
convicted, has pleaded or pleads guilty, or has been or is	8366
adjudicated a delinquent child, in a court in another state, in a	8367
federal court, military court, or Indian tribal court, or in a	8368
court of any nation other than the United States for committing a	8369
sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense may	8370
apply to the sheriff of the county in which the offender or	8371
delinquent child resides or temporarily is domiciled, or in which	8372
the offender attends a school or institution of higher education	8373
or is employed, for credit against the duty to register for the	8374
time that the offender or delinquent child has complied with the	8375
sex offender or child-victim offender registration requirements of	8376
another jurisdiction. The sheriff shall grant the offender or	8377
delinquent child credit against the duty to register for time for	8378
which the offender or delinquent child provides adequate proof	8379
that the offender or delinquent child has complied with the sex	8380
offender or child-victim offender registration requirements of	8381
another jurisdiction. If the offender or delinquent child	8382
disagrees with the determination of the sheriff, the offender or	8383
delinquent child may appeal the determination to the court of	8384
common pleas of the county in which the offender or delinquent	8385
child resides or is temporarily domiciled, or in which the	8386
offender attends a school or institution of higher education or is	8387
employed.	8388

Sec. 2950.081. (A) Any statements, information, photographs,	8389
fingerprints, or materials that are required to be provided, and	8390
that are provided, by an offender or delinquent child pursuant to	8391
section 2950.04, 2950.041, 2950.05, or 2950.06 of the Revised Code	8392
and that are in the possession of a county sheriff are public	8393
records open to public inspection under section 149.43 of the	8394
Revised Code and shall be included in the internet sex offender	8395
and child-victim offender database established and maintained	8396
under section 2950.13 of the Revised Code to the extent provided	8397
in that section.	8398

(B) Except when the child is classified a public	8399
registry-qualified juvenile offender registrant, theA sheriff	8400
shall not cause to be publicly disseminated by means of the	8401
internet any statements, information, photographs, fingerprints,	8402
or materials that are provided by a delinquent child who sends a	8403
notice of intent to reside, registers, provides notice of a change	8404
of residence address and registers the new residence address, or	8405
provides verification of a current residence address pursuant to	8406
this chapter and that are in the possession of a county sheriff.	8407

(C) If a sheriff establishes on the internet a sex offender	8408
and child-victim offender database for the public dissemination of	8409
some or all of the materials regarding offenders that are	8410
described in division (A) of this section, that are not prohibited	8411
from inclusion by division (B) of this section, and that pertain	8412
to offenders or delinquent children who register in the sheriff's	8413
county, in addition to all of the other information and materials	8414
included, the sheriff shall include in the database a chart	8415
describing which sexually oriented offenses and child-victim	8416
oriented offenses are included in the definitions of tier I sex	8417
offender/child-victim offender, tier II sex offender/child-victim	8418
offender, and tier III sex offender/child-victim offender and for	8419
each offender or delinquent child in relation to whom information	8420
and materials are provided a statement as to whether the offender	8421
or delinquent child is a tier I sex offender/child-victim	8422
offendersoffender, a tier II sex offender/child-victim offenders	8423
offender, or a tier III sex offender/child-victim offenders	8424
offender.	8425

Sec. 2950.09.  (A) If a person is convicted of or pleads	8426
guilty to a sexually oriented offense that was committed before	8427
January 1, 2008, and if the sexually oriented offense is a violent	8428
sex offense or a designated homicide, assault, or kidnapping	8429
offense and the offender is adjudicated a sexually violent	8430
predator in relation to that offense, the conviction of or plea of	8431
guilty to the offense and the adjudication as a sexually violent	8432
predator automatically classifies the offender a sexual predator.	8433
If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to a sexually	8434
oriented offense that is a violation of division (A)(1)(b) of	8435
section 2907.02 of the Revised Code and that was committed before	8436
January 1, 2008, and if either the person is sentenced under	8437
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code or the court imposes upon the	8438
offender a sentence of life without parole under division (B) of	8439
section 2907.02 of the Revised Code, the conviction of or plea of	8440
guilty to the offense automatically classifies the offender a	8441
sexual predator. If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to	8442
attempted rape that was committed before January 1, 2008, and also	8443
is convicted of or pleads guilty to a specification of the type	8444
described in section 2941.1418, 2941.1419, or 2941.1420 of the	8445
Revised Code, the conviction of or plea of guilty to the offense	8446
and the specification automatically classify the offender a sexual	8447
predator. If a person is convicted, pleads guilty, or is	8448
adjudicated a delinquent child in a court in another state, in a	8449
federal court, military court, or Indian tribal court, or in a	8450
court of any nation other than the United States for a sexually	8451
oriented offense that was committed before January 1, 2008, and	8452
if, as a result of that conviction, plea of guilty, or	8453
adjudication, the person is required under the law of the	8454
jurisdiction in which the person was convicted, pleaded guilty, or	8455
was adjudicated to register as a sex offender until the person's	8456
death, that conviction, plea of guilty, or adjudication	8457
automatically classifies the person a sexual predator, but the	8458
person may challenge that classification pursuant to division (F)	8459
of this section. In all other cases, a person who commits before	8460
January 1, 2008, a sexually oriented offense may be classified as	8461
a sexual predator for purposes of this chapter only in accordance	8462
with division (B) or (C) of this section or, regarding delinquent	8463
children, divisions (B) and (C) of section 2152.83 of the Revised	8464
Code.	8465

(B)(1)(a) Except as otherwise provided in this division, the	8466
judge who is to impose sentence on a person who is convicted of or	8467
pleads guilty to a sexually oriented offense that was committed	8468
before January 1, 2008, shall conduct a hearing to determine	8469
whether the offender is a sexual predator. A judge shall not	8470
conduct a hearing under this division if the person automatically	8471
is classified a sexual predator as described in division (A) of	8472
this section.	8473

(b) The judge who is to impose an order of disposition upon a	8474
child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing before	8475
January 1, 2008, a sexually oriented offense shall conduct a	8476
hearing to determine whether the child is a sexual predator if	8477
either of the following applies:	8478

(i) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A)	8479
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a	8480
juvenile offender registrant.	8481

(ii) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code	8482
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under	8483
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the	8484
judge determines at that hearing that the child is a juvenile	8485
offender registrant.	8486

(2) The judge shall conduct the hearing required by division	8487
(B)(1)(a) of this section for an offender prior to sentencing. If	8488
the sexually oriented offense for which sentence is to be imposed	8489
is a felony and the hearing is being conducted under division	8490
(B)(1)(a) of this section, the judge may conduct it as part of the	8491
sentencing hearing required by section 2929.19 of the Revised	8492
Code. The judge may conduct the hearing required by division	8493
(B)(1)(b) of this section for a delinquent child at the same time	8494
as, or separate from, the dispositional hearing, as specified in	8495
the applicable provision of section 2152.82 or 2152.83 of the	8496
Revised Code. The court shall give the offender or delinquent	8497
child and the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or handled	8498
the case against the delinquent child for the sexually oriented	8499
offense notice of the date, time, and location of the hearing. At	8500
the hearing, the offender or delinquent child and the prosecutor	8501
shall have an opportunity to testify, present evidence, call and	8502
examine witnesses and expert witnesses, and cross-examine	8503
witnesses and expert witnesses regarding the determination as to	8504
whether the offender or delinquent child is a sexual predator. The	8505
offender or delinquent child shall have the right to be	8506
represented by counsel and, if indigent, the right to have counsel	8507
appointed to represent the offender or delinquent child.	8508

(3) In making a determination under divisions (B)(1) and (4)	8509
of this section as to whether an offender or delinquent child is a	8510
sexual predator, the judge shall consider all relevant factors,	8511
including, but not limited to, all of the following:	8512

(a) The offender's or delinquent child's age;

8513

(b) The offender's or delinquent child's prior criminal or	8514
delinquency record regarding all offenses, including, but not	8515
limited to, all sexual offenses;	8516

(c) The age of the victim of the sexually oriented offense	8517
for which sentence is to be imposed or the order of disposition is	8518
to be made;	8519

(d) Whether the sexually oriented offense for which sentence	8520
is to be imposed or the order of disposition is to be made	8521
involved multiple victims;	8522

(e) Whether the offender or delinquent child used drugs or	8523
alcohol to impair the victim of the sexually oriented offense or	8524
to prevent the victim from resisting;	8525

(f) If the offender or delinquent child previously has been	8526
convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a	8527
delinquent child for committing an act that if committed by an	8528
adult would be, a criminal offense, whether the offender or	8529
delinquent child completed any sentence or dispositional order	8530
imposed for the prior offense or act and, if the prior offense or	8531
act was a sex offense or a sexually oriented offense, whether the	8532
offender or delinquent child participated in available programs	8533
for sexual offenders;	8534

(g) Any mental illness or mental disability of the offender	8535
or delinquent child;	8536

(h) The nature of the offender's or delinquent child's sexual	8537
conduct, sexual contact, or interaction in a sexual context with	8538
the victim of the sexually oriented offense and whether the sexual	8539
conduct, sexual contact, or interaction in a sexual context was	8540
part of a demonstrated pattern of abuse;	8541

(i) Whether the offender or delinquent child, during the	8542
commission of the sexually oriented offense for which sentence is	8543
to be imposed or the order of disposition is to be made, displayed	8544
cruelty or made one or more threats of cruelty;	8545

(j) Any additional behavioral characteristics that contribute	8546
to the offender's or delinquent child's conduct.	8547

(4) After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at	8548
the hearing conducted under division (B)(1) of this section and	8549
the factors specified in division (B)(3) of this section, the	8550
court shall determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the	8551
subject offender or delinquent child is a sexual predator. If the	8552
court determines that the subject offender or delinquent child is	8553
not a sexual predator, the court shall specify in the offender's	8554
sentence and the judgment of conviction that contains the sentence	8555
or in the delinquent child's dispositional order, as appropriate,	8556
that the court has determined that the offender or delinquent	8557
child is not a sexual predator and the reason or reasons why the	8558
court determined that the subject offender or delinquent child is	8559
not a sexual predator. If the court determines by clear and	8560
convincing evidence that the subject offender or delinquent child	8561
is a sexual predator, the court shall specify in the offender's	8562
sentence and the judgment of conviction that contains the sentence	8563
or in the delinquent child's dispositional order, as appropriate,	8564
that the court has determined that the offender or delinquent	8565
child is a sexual predator and that the determination was pursuant	8566
to division (B) of this section. If the sexually oriented offense	8567
in question is an aggravated sexually oriented offense, the court	8568
shall specify in the offender's sentence and the judgment of	8569
conviction that contains the sentence that the offender's offense	8570
is an aggravated sexually oriented offense. The offender or	8571
delinquent child and the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or	8572
handled the case against the delinquent child for the sexually	8573
oriented offense in question may appeal as a matter of right the	8574
court's determination under this division as to whether the	8575
offender or delinquent child is, or is not, a sexual predator.	8576

(C)(1) If a person was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	8577
sexually oriented offense that was committed before January 1,	8578
2008, if the person is serving a term of imprisonment in a state	8579
correctional institution as of the effective date of this section,	8580
and if the person previously has not received a hearing to	8581
determine whether the person is a sexual predator, the department	8582
of rehabilitation and correction shall do whichever of the	8583
following is applicable:	8584

(a) If the sexually oriented offense was, regardless of the	8585
age of the victim of the offense, a violation of section 2903.01,	8586
2903.02, 2903.11, or 2905.01 of the Revised Code, or of division	8587
(A) of section 2903.04 of the Revised Code, that was committed	8588
with a sexual motivation, or was a violent sex offense, the	8589
department shall notify the court that sentenced the offender of	8590
this fact, and the court shall conduct a hearing to determine	8591
whether the offender is a sexual predator.	8592

(b) If division (C)(1)(a) of this section does not apply, the	8593
department shall determine whether to recommend that the offender	8594
be adjudicated a sexual predator. In making a determination under	8595
this division as to whether to recommend that the offender be	8596
adjudicated a sexual predator, the department shall consider all	8597
relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all of the	8598
factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section. If	8599
the department determines that it will recommend that the offender	8600
be adjudicated a sexual predator, it immediately shall send the	8601
recommendation to the court that sentenced the offender. If the	8602
department determines that it will not recommend that the offender	8603
be adjudicated a sexual predator, it immediately shall send its	8604
determination to the court that sentenced the offender. In all	8605
cases, the department shall enter its determination and	8606
recommendation in the offender's institutional record, and the	8607
court shall proceed in accordance with division (C)(2) of this	8608
section.	8609

(2)(a) If the department of rehabilitation and correction	8610
sends to a court a notice under division (C)(1)(a) of this	8611
section, the court shall conduct a hearing to determine whether	8612
the subject offender is a sexual predator. If, pursuant to	8613
division (C)(1)(b) of this section, the department sends to a	8614
court a recommendation that an offender be adjudicated a sexual	8615
predator, the court is not bound by the department's	8616
recommendation, and the court shall conduct a hearing to determine	8617
whether the offender is a sexual predator. The court shall not	8618
make a determination as to whether the offender is, or is not, a	8619
sexual predator without a hearing. The court may hold the hearing	8620
and make the determination prior to the offender's release from	8621
imprisonment or at any time within one year following the	8622
offender's release from that imprisonment.	8623

(b) If, pursuant to division (C)(1)(b) of this section, the	8624
department sends to the court a determination that it is not	8625
recommending that an offender be adjudicated a sexual predator,	8626
the court shall not make any determination as to whether the	8627
offender is, or is not, a sexual predator but shall determine	8628
whether the offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded	8629
guilty to a sexually oriented offense other than the offense in	8630
relation to which the department made its determination or	8631
previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	8632
child-victim oriented offense.	8633

The court may conduct a hearing to determine whether the	8634
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	8635
sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense but	8636
may make the determination without a hearing. However, if the	8637
court determines that the offender previously has been convicted	8638
of or pleaded guilty to such an offense, it shall not impose a	8639
requirement that the offender be subject to the community	8640
notification provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11	8641
of the Revised Code without a hearing. In determining whether to	8642
impose the community notification requirement, the court, in the	8643
circumstances described in division (E)(2) of this section, shall	8644
apply the presumption specified in that division. The court shall	8645
include in the offender's institutional record any determination	8646
made under this division as to whether the offender previously has	8647
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense	8648
or child-victim oriented offense and, as such, whether the	8649
offender is a habitual sex offender.	8650

(c) Upon scheduling a hearing under division (C)(2)(a) or (b)	8651
of this section, the court shall give the offender and the	8652
prosecutor who prosecuted the offender for the sexually oriented	8653
offense, or that prosecutor's successor in office, notice of the	8654
date, time, and place of the hearing. If the hearing is scheduled	8655
under division (C)(2)(a) of this section to determine whether the	8656
offender is a sexual predator, the prosecutor who is given the	8657
notice may contact the department of rehabilitation and correction	8658
and request that the department provide to the prosecutor all	8659
information the department possesses regarding the offender that	8660
is relevant and necessary for use in making the determination as	8661
to whether the offender is a sexual predator and that is not	8662
privileged or confidential under law. If the prosecutor makes a	8663
request for that information, the department promptly shall	8664
provide to the prosecutor all information the department possesses	8665
regarding the offender that is not privileged or confidential	8666
under law and that is relevant and necessary for making that	8667
determination. The court shall conduct a hearing scheduled under	8668
division (C)(2)(a) of this section to determine whether the	8669
offender is a sexual predator in the manner described in division	8670
(B)(1) of this section regarding hearings conducted under that	8671
division. In making a determination under this division as to	8672
whether the offender is a sexual predator, the court shall	8673
consider all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all	8674
of the factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this	8675
section. After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at	8676
the sexual predator hearing and the factors specified in divisions	8677
(B)(2) and (3) of this section, the court shall determine by clear	8678
and convincing evidence whether the offender is a sexual predator.	8679
If the court determines at the sexual predator hearing that the	8680
offender is not a sexual predator, it also shall determine whether	8681
the offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to	8682
a sexually oriented offense other than the offense in relation to	8683
which the hearing is being conducted.	8684

Upon making its determinations at the sexual predator	8685
hearing, the court shall proceed as follows:	8686

(i) If the court determines that the offender is not a sexual	8687
predator and that the offender previously has not been convicted	8688
of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense other than the	8689
offense in relation to which the hearing is being conducted and	8690
previously has not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	8691
child-victim oriented offense, it shall include in the offender's	8692
institutional record its determinations and the reason or reasons	8693
why it determined that the offender is not a sexual predator.	8694

(ii) If the court determines that the offender is not a	8695
sexual predator but that the offender previously has been	8696
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense	8697
other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is being	8698
conducted or previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to	8699
a child-victim oriented offense, it shall include in the	8700
offender's institutional record its determination that the	8701
offender is not a sexual predator but is a habitual sex offender	8702
and the reason or reasons why it determined that the offender is	8703
not a sexual predator. The court shall attach the determinations	8704
and the reason or reasons to the offender's sentence, shall	8705
specify that the determinations were pursuant to division (C) of	8706
this section, and shall provide a copy of the determinations and	8707
the reason or reasons to the offender, to the prosecuting	8708
attorney, and to the department of rehabilitation and correction.	8709
The court may impose a requirement that the offender be subject to	8710
the community notification provisions contained in sections	8711
2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code. In determining whether to	8712
impose the community notification requirement, the court, in the	8713
circumstances described in division (E)(2) of this section, shall	8714
apply the presumption specified in that division. The offender	8715
shall not be subject to those community notification provisions	8716
relative to the sexually oriented offense in question if the court	8717
does not so impose the requirement described in this division. If	8718
the court imposes that requirement, the offender may appeal the	8719
judge's determination that the offender is a habitual sex	8720
offender.	8721

(iii) If the court determines by clear and convincing	8722
evidence that the offender is a sexual predator, it shall enter	8723
its determination in the offender's institutional record, shall	8724
attach the determination to the offender's sentence, shall specify	8725
that the determination was pursuant to division (C) of this	8726
section, and shall provide a copy of the determination to the	8727
offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the department of	8728
rehabilitation and correction. The offender and the prosecutor may	8729
appeal as a matter of right the judge's determination under	8730
divisions (C)(2)(a) and (c) of this section as to whether the	8731
offender is, or is not, a sexual predator.	8732

If the hearing is scheduled under division (C)(2)(b) of this	8733
section to determine whether the offender previously has been	8734
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense or a	8735
child-victim oriented offense or whether to subject the offender	8736
to the community notification provisions contained in sections	8737
2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code, upon making the	8738
determination, the court shall attach the determination or	8739
determinations to the offender's sentence, shall provide a copy to	8740
the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the department	8741
of rehabilitation and correction, and may impose a requirement	8742
that the offender be subject to the community notification	8743
provisions. In determining whether to impose the community	8744
notification requirements, the court, in the circumstances	8745
described in division (E)(2) of this section, shall apply the	8746
presumption specified in that division. The offender shall not be	8747
subject to the community notification provisions relative to the	8748
sexually oriented offense in question if the court does not so	8749
impose the requirement described in this division. If the court	8750
imposes that requirement, the offender may appeal the judge's	8751
determination that the offender is a habitual sex offender.	8752

(D)(1) A person who has been adjudicated a delinquent child	8753
for committing a sexually oriented offense and who has been	8754
classified by a juvenile court judge a juvenile offender	8755
registrant or, if applicable, additionally has been determined by	8756
a juvenile court judge to be a sexual predator or habitual sex	8757
offender, may petition the adjudicating court for a	8758
reclassification or declassification pursuant to section 2152.85	8759
of the Revised Code.	8760

A judge who is reviewing a sexual predator determination for	8761
a delinquent child under section 2152.84 or 2152.85 of the Revised	8762
Code shall comply with this section. At the hearing, the judge	8763
shall consider all relevant evidence and information, including,	8764
but not limited to, the factors set forth in division (B)(3) of	8765
this section. The judge shall not enter a determination that the	8766
delinquent child no longer is a sexual predator unless the judge	8767
determines by clear and convincing evidence that the delinquent	8768
child is unlikely to commit a sexually oriented offense in the	8769
future. If the judge enters a determination under this division	8770
that the delinquent child no longer is a sexual predator, the	8771
judge shall notify the bureau of criminal identification and	8772
investigation of the determination and shall include in the notice	8773
a statement of the reason or reasons why it determined that the	8774
delinquent child no longer is a sexual predator. Upon receipt of	8775
the notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff	8776
with whom the delinquent child most recently registered under	8777
section 2950.04 or 2950.05 of the Revised Code of the	8778
determination that the delinquent child no longer is a sexual	8779
predator.	8780

(2) If an offender who has been convicted of or pleaded	8781
guilty to a sexually oriented offense is classified a sexual	8782
predator pursuant to division (A) of this section or has been	8783
adjudicated a sexual predator relative to the offense as described	8784
in division (B) or (C) of this section, subject to division (F) of	8785
this section, the classification or adjudication of the offender	8786
as a sexual predator is permanent and continues in effect until	8787
the offender's death, and in no case shall the classification or	8788
adjudication be removed or terminated.	8789

(E)(1) The judge who is to impose sentence on or after the	8790
effective date of this section on a person who is convicted of or	8791
pleads guilty to a sexually oriented offense that was committed	8792
before January 1, 2008, shall determine, prior to sentencing,	8793
whether the offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded	8794
guilty to, or been adjudicated a delinquent child for committing,	8795
a sexually oriented offense or a child-victim oriented offense and	8796
is a habitual sex offender.	8797

The judge who is to impose or has imposed an order of	8798
disposition on or after the effective date of this section upon a	8799
child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing before	8800
January 1, 2008, a sexually oriented offense shall determine prior	8801
to entering the order classifying the delinquent child a juvenile	8802
offender registrant whether the delinquent child previously has	8803
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a	8804
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a	8805
child-victim oriented offense and is a habitual sex offender if	8806
either of the following applies:	8807

(a) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A)	8808
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a	8809
juvenile offender registrant.	8810

(b) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code	8811
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under	8812
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the	8813
judge determines at that hearing that the child is a juvenile	8814
offender registrant.	8815

(2) If, under division (E)(1) of this section, the judge	8816
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has	8817
not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a	8818
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a	8819
child-victim oriented offense or that the offender otherwise does	8820
not satisfy the criteria for being a habitual sex offender, the	8821
judge shall specify in the offender's sentence or in the order	8822
classifying the delinquent child a juvenile offender registrant	8823
that the judge has determined that the offender or delinquent	8824
child is not a habitual sex offender.	8825

If, under division (E)(1) of this section, the judge	8826
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has	8827
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a	8828
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense or a	8829
child-victim oriented offense and that the offender satisfies all	8830
other criteria for being a habitual sex offender, the offender or	8831
delinquent child is a habitual sex offender or habitual	8832
child-victim offender, and the court shall determine whether to	8833
impose a requirement that the offender or delinquent child be	8834
subject to the community notification provisions in sections	8835
2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code. In making the	8836
determination regarding the possible imposition of the community	8837
notification requirement, if at least two of the sexually oriented	8838
offenses or child-victim oriented offenses that are the basis of	8839
the habitual sex offender or habitual child-victim offender	8840
determination were committed against a victim who was under	8841
eighteen years of age, it is presumed that subjecting the offender	8842
or delinquent child to the community notification provisions is	8843
necessary to comply with the determinations, findings, and	8844
declarations of the general assembly regarding sex offenders and	8845
child-victim offenders set forth in section 2950.02 of the Revised	8846
Code. When a judge determines that an offender or delinquent child	8847
is a habitual sex offender or a habitual child-victim offender,	8848
the judge shall specify in the offender's sentence and the	8849
judgment of conviction that contains the sentence or in the order	8850
classifying the delinquent child a juvenile offender registrant	8851
that the judge has determined that the offender or delinquent	8852
child is a habitual sex offender. The judge may impose a	8853
requirement in that sentence and judgment of conviction or in that	8854
order that the offender or delinquent child is subject to the	8855
community notification provisions in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11	8856
of the Revised Code. Unless the habitual sex offender also has	8857
been adjudicated a sexual predator relative to the sexually	8858
oriented offense in question or the habitual sex offender was	8859
convicted of or pleaded guilty to an aggravated sexually oriented	8860
offense, the offender or delinquent child is subject to those	8861
community notification provisions only if the court imposes the	8862
requirement described in this division in the offender's sentence	8863
and the judgment of conviction or in the order classifying the	8864
delinquent child a juvenile offender registrant. If the court	8865
determines pursuant to this division or division (C)(2) of this	8866
section that an offender is a habitual sex offender, the	8867
determination is permanent and continues in effect until the	8868
offender's death, and in no case shall the determination be	8869
removed or terminated.	8870

If a court in another state, a federal court, military court,	8871
or Indian tribal court or a court in any nation other than the	8872
United States determines a person to be a habitual sex offender in	8873
that jurisdiction, the person is considered to be determined to be	8874
a habitual sex offender in this state. If the court in the other	8875
state, federal court, military court, or Indian tribal court or	8876
the court in the nation other than the United States subjects the	8877
habitual sex offender to community notification regarding the	8878
person's place of residence, the person, as much as is	8879
practicable, is subject to the community notification provisions	8880
regarding the person's place of residence that are in sections	8881
2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code, unless the court that so	8882
subjected the person to community notification determines that the	8883
person no longer is subject to community notification.	8884

(F)(1) An offender or delinquent child classified a sexual	8885
predator may petition the court of common pleas or, for a	8886
delinquent child, the juvenile court of the county in which the	8887
offender or delinquent child resides or temporarily is domiciled	8888
to enter a determination that the offender or delinquent child is	8889
not an adjudicated sexual predator in this state for purposes of	8890
the registration and other requirements of this chapter or the	8891
community notification provisions contained in sections 2950.10	8892
and 2950.11 of the Revised Code if all of the following apply:	8893

(a) The offender or delinquent child was convicted, pleaded	8894
guilty, or was adjudicated a delinquent child in a court of	8895
another state, in a federal court, military court, or Indian	8896
tribal court, or in a court of any nation other than the United	8897
States for committing a sexually oriented offense.	8898

(b) As a result of the conviction, guilty plea, or	8899
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section, the	8900
offender or delinquent child is required under the law of the	8901
jurisdiction under which the offender or delinquent child was	8902
convicted, pleaded guilty, or was adjudicated to register as a sex	8903
offender until the offender's or delinquent child's death.	8904

(c) The offender or delinquent child was automatically	8905
classified a sexual predator under division (A) of this section in	8906
relation to the conviction, guilty plea, or adjudication described	8907
in division (F)(1)(a) of this section.	8908

(2) The court may enter a determination that the offender or	8909
delinquent child filing the petition described in division (F)(1)	8910
of this section is not an adjudicated sexual predator in this	8911
state for purposes of the registration and other requirements of	8912
this chapter or the community notification provisions in sections	8913
2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code only if the offender or	8914
delinquent child proves by clear and convincing evidence that the	8915
requirement of the other jurisdiction that the offender or	8916
delinquent child register as a sex offender until the offender's	8917
or delinquent child's death is not substantially similar to a	8918
classification as a sexual predator for purposes of this chapter.	8919
If the court enters a determination that the offender or	8920
delinquent child is not an adjudicated sexual predator in this	8921
state for those purposes, the court shall include in the	8922
determination a statement of the reason or reasons why it so	8923
determined.	8924

(G) If, prior to July 31, 2003, an offender or delinquent	8925
child was adjudicated a sexual predator or was determined to be a	8926
habitual sex offender under this section or section 2152.82,	8927
2152.83, 2152.84, or 2152.85 of the Revised Code and if, on and	8928
after July 31, 2003, the sexually oriented offense upon which the	8929
classification or determination was based no longer is considered	8930
a sexually oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented	8931
offense, notwithstanding the redesignation of that offense, on and	8932
after July 31, 2003, all of the following apply:	8933

(1) Divisions (A)(1) and (2) or (E)(1) and (2) of section	8934
2950.091 of the Revised Code apply regarding the offender or	8935
child, and the judge's classification or determination made prior	8936
to July 31, 2003, shall be considered for all purposes to be a	8937
classification or determination that classifies the offender or	8938
child as described in those divisions.	8939

(2) The offender's or child's classification or determination	8940
under divisions (A)(1) and (2) or (E)(1) and (2) of section	8941
2950.091 of the Revised Code shall be considered for purposes of	8942
section 2950.07 of the Revised Code and for all other purposes to	8943
be a continuation of the classification or determination made	8944
prior to July 31, 2003.	8945

(3) The offender's or child's duties under this chapter	8946
relative to that classification or determination shall be	8947
considered for all purposes to be a continuation of the duties	8948
related to that classification or determination as they existed	8949
prior to July 31, 2003.	8950

Sec. 2950.091.  (A)(1) If, prior to July 31, 2003, a person	8951
was convicted of, pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a	8952
delinquent child for committing, a sexually oriented offense, if,	8953
prior to July 31, 2003, the offender or delinquent child was	8954
classified a sexual predator in relation to that offense pursuant	8955
to division (A) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code as it then	8956
existed, and if, on and after July 31, 2003, the sexually oriented	8957
offense upon which the classification was based no longer is	8958
considered a sexually oriented offense but instead is a	8959
child-victim oriented offense, notwithstanding the redesignation	8960
of the offense, the classification of the offender or child as a	8961
sexual predator remains valid and in effect on and after July 31,	8962
2003, and on and after the effective date of this section.	8963

(2) If, prior to July 31, 2003, a person was convicted of,	8964
pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a delinquent child for	8965
committing a sexually oriented offense, if, prior to July 31,	8966
2003, the offender or delinquent child was adjudicated a sexual	8967
predator in relation to that offense under section 2950.09 or	8968
section 2152.82, 2152.83, 2152.84, or 2152.85 of the Revised Code	8969
as they then existed, if, on and after July 31, 2003, the sexually	8970
oriented offense upon which the adjudication was based no longer	8971
is considered a sexually oriented offense but instead is a	8972
child-victim oriented offense, and if division (A)(1) of this	8973
section does not apply, notwithstanding the redesignation of the	8974
offense, on and after July 31, 2003, and on and after the	8975
effective date of this section, the offender or delinquent child	8976
automatically is classified a child-victim predator. If a person	8977
is convicted, pleads guilty, or is adjudicated a delinquent child	8978
in a court of another state, in a federal court, military court,	8979
or Indian tribal court, or in a court of any nation other than the	8980
United States for committing before January 1, 2008, a	8981
child-victim oriented offense, and if, as a result of that	8982
conviction, plea of guilty, or adjudication, the person is	8983
required under the law of the jurisdiction in which the person was	8984
convicted, pleaded guilty, or adjudicated to register as a	8985
child-victim offender or sex offender until the person's death,	8986
that conviction, plea of guilty, or adjudication automatically	8987
classifies the person a child-victim predator for the purposes of	8988
this chapter, but the person may challenge that classification	8989
pursuant to division (F) of this section.	8990

(3) In all cases not described in division (A)(1) or (2) of	8991
this section, a person or delinquent child who commits before	8992
January 1, 2008, a child-victim oriented offense may be classified	8993
a child-victim predator for purposes of this chapter only in	8994
accordance with division (B) or (C) of this section or, regarding	8995
delinquent children, divisions (B) and (C) of section 2152.83 of	8996
the Revised Code.	8997

(B)(1)(a) Except as otherwise provided in this division, the	8998
judge who is to impose sentence on a person who is convicted of or	8999
pleads guilty to a child-victim oriented offense that was	9000
committed before January 1, 2008, shall conduct a hearing to	9001
determine whether the offender is a child-victim predator. The	9002
court shall not conduct a hearing under this division if the	9003
person automatically is classified a sexual predator or	9004
child-victim predator as described in division (A) of this	9005
section.	9006

(b) The judge who is to impose an order of disposition upon a	9007
child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing before	9008
January 1, 2008, a child-victim oriented offense shall conduct a	9009
hearing to determine whether the child is a child-victim predator	9010
if either of the following applies:	9011

(i) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A)	9012
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a	9013
juvenile offender registrant.	9014

(ii) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code	9015
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under	9016
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the	9017
judge determines at that hearing that the child is a juvenile	9018
offender registrant.	9019

(2) The judge shall conduct the hearing required by division	9020
(B)(1)(a) of this section for an offender prior to sentencing,	9021
and, if the child-victim oriented offense for which sentence is to	9022
be imposed is a felony and the hearing is being conducted under	9023
division (B)(1)(a) of this section, the judge may conduct it as	9024
part of the sentencing hearing required by section 2929.19 of the	9025
Revised Code. The judge may conduct the hearing required by	9026
division (B)(1)(b) of this section for a delinquent child at the	9027
same time as, or separate from, the dispositional hearing, as	9028
specified in the applicable provision of section 2152.82 or	9029
2152.83 of the Revised Code. The court shall give the offender or	9030
delinquent child and the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or	9031
handled the case against the delinquent child for the child-victim	9032
oriented offense notice of the date, time, and location of the	9033
hearing. At the hearing, the offender or delinquent child and the	9034
prosecutor have the same opportunities and rights as described in	9035
division (B)(2) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code regarding	9036
sexual predator hearings.	9037

(3) In making a determination under divisions (B)(1) and (4)	9038
of this section as to whether an offender or delinquent child is a	9039
child-victim predator, the judge shall consider all relevant	9040
factors, including, but not limited to, all of the factors	9041
identified in division (B)(3) of section 2950.09 of the Revised	9042
Code regarding sexual predator hearings, except that all	9043
references in those factors to any "sexual offense" or "sexually	9044
oriented offense" shall be construed for purposes of this division	9045
as being references to a "child-victim oriented offense," and all	9046
references in the factors so identified to "sexual offenders"	9047
shall be construed for purposes of this division as being	9048
references to "child-victim offenders."	9049

(4) After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at	9050
the hearing conducted under division (B)(1) of this section and	9051
the factors specified in division (B)(3) of this section, the	9052
court shall determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the	9053
subject offender or delinquent child is a child-victim predator.	9054
If the court determines that the subject offender or delinquent	9055
child is not a child-victim predator, the court shall specify in	9056
the offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction that	9057
contains the sentence or in the delinquent child's dispositional	9058
order, as appropriate, that the court has determined that the	9059
offender or delinquent child is not a child-victim predator and	9060
the reason or reasons why the court determined that the subject	9061
offender or delinquent child is not a child-victim predator. If	9062
the court determines by clear and convincing evidence that the	9063
subject offender or delinquent child is a child-victim predator,	9064
the court shall specify in the offender's sentence and the	9065
judgment of conviction that contains the sentence or in the	9066
delinquent child's dispositional order, as appropriate, that the	9067
court has determined that the offender or delinquent child is a	9068
child-victim predator and that the determination was pursuant to	9069
division (B) of this section. The offender or delinquent child and	9070
the prosecutor who prosecuted the offender or handled the case	9071
against the delinquent child for the child-victim oriented offense	9072
in question may appeal as a matter of right the court's	9073
determination under this division as to whether the offender or	9074
delinquent child is, or is not, a child-victim predator.	9075

(C)(1) If a person was convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	9076
child-victim oriented offense that was committed before January 1,	9077
2008, or a sexually oriented offense committed before that date	9078
that on and after July 31, 2003, is a child-victim oriented	9079
offense, if the person is serving a term of imprisonment in a	9080
state correctional institution as of the effective date of this	9081
section, and if the person previously has not received a hearing	9082
to determine whether the person is a child-victim predator, the	9083
department of rehabilitation and correction shall determine	9084
whether to recommend that the offender be adjudicated a	9085
child-victim predator. In making a determination under this	9086
division as to whether to recommend that the offender be	9087
adjudicated a child-victim predator, the department shall consider	9088
all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all of the	9089
factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section. If	9090
the department determines that it will recommend that the offender	9091
be adjudicated a child-victim predator or determines that it will	9092
not recommend that the offender be adjudicated a child-victim	9093
predator, it immediately shall send its recommendation or	9094
determination to the court that sentenced the offender. In all	9095
cases, the department shall enter its determination and	9096
recommendation in the offender's institutional record, and the	9097
court shall proceed in accordance with division (C)(2) of this	9098
section.	9099

(2)(a) If, pursuant to division (C)(1) of this section, the	9100
department of rehabilitation and correction sends to a court a	9101
recommendation that an offender be adjudicated a child-victim	9102
predator, the court is not bound by the department's	9103
recommendation, and the court shall conduct a hearing to determine	9104
whether the offender is a child-victim predator. The court shall	9105
not make a determination as to whether the offender is, or is not,	9106
a child-victim predator without a hearing. The court may hold the	9107
hearing and make the determination prior to the offender's release	9108
from imprisonment or at any time within one year following the	9109
offender's release from that imprisonment.	9110

(b) If, pursuant to division (C)(1) of this section, the	9111
department sends to the court a determination that it is not	9112
recommending that an offender be adjudicated a child-victim	9113
predator, the court shall not make any determination as to whether	9114
the offender is, or is not, a child-victim predator but shall	9115
determine whether the offender previously has been convicted of or	9116
pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense other than the	9117
offense in relation to which the department made its	9118
determination.	9119

The court may conduct a hearing to determine whether the	9120
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	9121
child-victim oriented offense but may make the determination	9122
without a hearing. However, if the court determines that the	9123
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to	9124
such an offense, it shall not impose a requirement that the	9125
offender be subject to the community notification provisions	9126
contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code	9127
without a hearing. The court shall include in the offender's	9128
institutional record any determination made under this division as	9129
to whether the offender previously has been convicted of or	9130
pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense and whether the	9131
offender is a habitual child-victim offender.	9132

(c) Upon scheduling a hearing under division (C)(2)(a) or (b)	9133
of this section, the court shall give the offender and the	9134
prosecutor who prosecuted the offender for the child-victim	9135
oriented offense, or that prosecutor's successor in office, notice	9136
of the date, time, and place of the hearing. If the hearing is	9137
scheduled under division (C)(2)(a) of this section to determine	9138
whether the offender is a child-victim predator, it shall be	9139
conducted in the manner described in division (B)(1) of this	9140
section regarding hearings conducted under that division. In	9141
making a determination under this division as to whether the	9142
offender is a child-victim predator, the court shall consider all	9143
relevant factors, including, but not limited to, all of the	9144
factors specified in divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section.	9145
After reviewing all testimony and evidence presented at the	9146
child-victim predator hearing and the factors specified in	9147
divisions (B)(2) and (3) of this section, the court shall	9148
determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the offender is	9149
a child-victim predator. If the court determines at the	9150
child-victim predator hearing that the offender is not a	9151
child-victim predator, it also shall determine whether the	9152
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a	9153
child-victim oriented offense other than the offense in relation	9154
to which the hearing is being conducted.	9155

Upon making its determinations at the child-victim predator	9156
hearing, the court shall proceed as follows:	9157

(i) If the court determines that the offender is not a	9158
child-victim predator and that the offender previously has not	9159
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented	9160
offense other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is	9161
being conducted, it shall include in the offender's institutional	9162
record its determinations and the reason or reasons why it	9163
determined that the offender is not a child-victim predator.	9164

(ii) If the court determines that the offender is not a	9165
child-victim predator but that the offender previously has been	9166
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense	9167
other than the offense in relation to which the hearing is being	9168
conducted, it shall include in the offender's institutional record	9169
its determination that the offender is not a child-victim predator	9170
but is a habitual child-victim offender and the reason or reasons	9171
why it determined that the offender is not a child-victim	9172
predator. It shall attach the determinations and the reason or	9173
reasons to the offender's sentence, shall specify that the	9174
determinations were made pursuant to division (C) of this section,	9175
and shall provide a copy of the determinations and the reason or	9176
reasons to the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the	9177
department of rehabilitation and correction. The court may impose	9178
a requirement that the offender be subject to the community	9179
notification provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11	9180
of the Revised Code. The offender shall not be subject to those	9181
community notification provisions relative to the child-victim	9182
oriented offense in question if the court does not so impose the	9183
requirement described in this division. If the court imposes that	9184
requirement, the offender may appeal the judge's determination	9185
that the offender is a habitual child-victim offender.	9186

(iii) If the court determines by clear and convincing	9187
evidence that the offender is a child-victim predator, it shall	9188
enter its determination in the offender's institutional record. It	9189
shall attach the determination to the offender's sentence, shall	9190
specify that the determination was made pursuant to division (C)	9191
of this section, and shall provide a copy of the determination to	9192
the offender, to the prosecuting attorney, and to the department	9193
of rehabilitation and correction. The offender and the prosecutor	9194
may appeal as a matter of right the judge's determination under	9195
this division as to whether the offender is, or is not, a	9196
child-victim predator.	9197

If the hearing is scheduled under division (C)(2)(b) of this	9198
section to determine whether the offender previously has been	9199
convicted of or pleaded guilty to a child-victim oriented offense	9200
or whether to subject the offender to the community notification	9201
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the	9202
Revised Code, upon making the determination, the court shall	9203
attach the determination or determinations to the offender's	9204
sentence. It shall provide a copy to the offender, to the	9205
prosecuting attorney, and to the department of rehabilitation and	9206
correction and may impose a requirement that the offender be	9207
subject to the community notification provisions. The offender	9208
shall not be subject to the community notification provisions	9209
relative to the child-victim oriented offense in question if the	9210
court does not so impose the requirement described in this	9211
division. If the court imposes that requirement, the offender may	9212
appeal the judge's determination that the offender is a habitual	9213
child-victim offender.	9214

(3) Divisions (C)(1) and (2) of this section do not require a	9215
court to conduct a new hearing under those divisions for any	9216
offender regarding a child-victim oriented offense if any of the	9217
following apply:	9218

(a) Prior to July 31, 2003, the court previously conducted a	9219
hearing under divisions (C)(1) and (2) of section 2950.09 of the	9220
Revised Code as they then existed regarding that offense, while it	9221
formerly was classified a sexually oriented offense, to determine	9222
whether the offender was a sexual predator.	9223

(b) Prior to July 31, 2003, and pursuant to divisions (C)(1)	9224
and (2) of section 2950.09 of the Revised Code as they then	9225
existed, the department of rehabilitation and correction	9226
recommended that the offender be adjudicated a sexual predator	9227
regarding that offense, while it formerly was classified a	9228
sexually oriented offense, and the court denied the recommendation	9229
and determined that the offender was not a sexual predator without	9230
a hearing, provided that this provision does not apply if the	9231
child-victim oriented offense in question was, regardless of the	9232
age of the victim of the offense, a violation of section 2903.01,	9233
2903.02, 2903.11, or 2905.01 of the Revised Code, or of division	9234
(A) of section 2903.04 of the Revised Code, that was committed	9235
with a sexual motivation.	9236

(D)(1) A person who has been adjudicated a delinquent child	9237
for committing a child-victim oriented offense and who has been	9238
classified by a juvenile court judge a juvenile offender	9239
registrant or, if applicable, additionally has been determined by	9240
a juvenile court judge to be a child-victim predator or habitual	9241
child-victim offender, may petition the adjudicating court for a	9242
reclassification or declassification pursuant to section 2152.85	9243
of the Revised Code.	9244

A judge who is reviewing a child-victim predator	9245
determination for a delinquent child under section 2152.84 or	9246
2152.85 of the Revised Code shall comply with this section. At the	9247
hearing, the judge shall consider all relevant evidence and	9248
information, including, but not limited to, the factors set forth	9249
in division (B)(3) of this section. The judge shall not enter a	9250
determination that the delinquent child no longer is a	9251
child-victim predator unless the judge determines by clear and	9252
convincing evidence that the delinquent child is unlikely to	9253
commit a child-victim oriented offense in the future. If the judge	9254
enters a determination under this division that the delinquent	9255
child no longer is a child-victim predator, the judge shall notify	9256
the bureau of criminal identification and investigation of the	9257
determination and shall include in the notice a statement of the	9258
reason or reasons why it determined that the delinquent child no	9259
longer is a child-victim predator. Upon receipt of the	9260
notification, the bureau promptly shall notify the sheriff with	9261
whom the delinquent child most recently registered under section	9262
2950.04 or 2950.05 of the Revised Code of the determination that	9263
the offender no longer is a child-victim predator.	9264

(2) If an offender who has been convicted of or pleaded	9265
guilty to a child-victim oriented offense is classified a	9266
child-victim predator pursuant to division (A) of this section or	9267
has been adjudicated a child-victim predator relative to the	9268
offense as described in division (B) or (C) of this section,	9269
subject to division (F) of this section, the classification or	9270
adjudication of the offender as a child-victim predator is	9271
permanent and continues in effect until the offender's death, and	9272
in no case shall the classification or adjudication be removed or	9273
terminated.	9274

(E)(1) If, prior to July 31, 2003, a person was convicted of,	9275
pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a delinquent child for	9276
committing a sexually oriented offense, if, on and after July 31,	9277
2003, the sexually oriented offense no longer is considered a	9278
sexually oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented	9279
offense, if, prior to July 31, 2003, a judge determined that the	9280
offender or delinquent child was a habitual sex offender, and if	9281
one or more of the offenses that was the basis of the offender or	9282
delinquent child being a habitual sex offender remains on and	9283
after July 31, 2003, a sexually oriented offense, notwithstanding	9284
the redesignation of the offense as described in this division,	9285
the determination and classification of that person as a habitual	9286
sex offender remains valid and in effect on and after July 31,	9287
2003, and on and after the effective date of this section.	9288

(2) If, prior to July 31, 2003, a person was convicted of,	9289
pleaded guilty to, or was adjudicated a delinquent child for	9290
committing a sexually oriented offense, if, on and after July 31,	9291
2003, the sexually oriented offense no longer is considered a	9292
sexually oriented offense but instead is a child-victim oriented	9293
offense, if, prior to July 31, 2003, a judge determined that the	9294
offender or delinquent child was a habitual sex offender, and if	9295
none of the offenses that was the basis of the offender or	9296
delinquent child being a habitual sex offender remains on and	9297
after July 31, 2003, a sexually oriented offense, on and after	9298
July 31, 2003, and on and after the effective date of this	9299
section, the offender or delinquent child automatically is	9300
classified a habitual child-victim offender.	9301

(3) The judge who is to impose sentence on or after the	9302
effective date of this section on a person who is convicted of or	9303
pleads guilty to a child-victim oriented offense committed before	9304
January 1, 2008, shall determine, prior to sentencing, whether the	9305
offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or	9306
been adjudicated a delinquent child for committing, a child-victim	9307
oriented offense and is a habitual child-victim offender.	9308

The judge who is to impose or has imposed an order of	9309
disposition on or after the effective date of this section upon a	9310
child who is adjudicated a delinquent child for committing before	9311
January 1, 2008, a child-victim oriented offense shall determine,	9312
prior to entering the order classifying the delinquent child a	9313
juvenile offender registrant, whether the delinquent child	9314
previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been	9315
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing, a child-victim	9316
oriented offense and is a habitual child-victim offender, if	9317
either of the following applies:	9318

(a) The judge is required by section 2152.82 or division (A)	9319
of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code to classify the child a	9320
juvenile offender registrant.	9321

(b) Division (B) of section 2152.83 of the Revised Code	9322
applies regarding the child, the judge conducts a hearing under	9323
that division for the purposes described in that division, and the	9324
judge determines at that hearing that the child is a juvenile	9325
offender registrant.	9326

(4) If, under division (E)(3) of this section, the judge	9327
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has	9328
not been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a	9329
delinquent child for committing, a child-victim oriented offense	9330
or that the offender otherwise does not satisfy the criteria for	9331
being a habitual child-victim offender, the judge shall specify in	9332
the offender's sentence or in the order classifying the delinquent	9333
child a juvenile child-victim offender registrant that the judge	9334
has determined that the offender or delinquent child is not a	9335
habitual child-victim offender.	9336

If, under division (E)(3) of this section, the judge	9337
determines that the offender or delinquent child previously has	9338
been convicted of or pleaded guilty to, or been adjudicated a	9339
delinquent child for committing, a child-victim oriented offense	9340
and that the offender satisfies all other criteria for being a	9341
habitual child-victim offender, the judge shall specify in the	9342
offender's sentence and the judgment of conviction that contains	9343
the sentence or in the order classifying the delinquent child a	9344
juvenile offender registrant that the judge has determined that	9345
the offender or delinquent child is a habitual child-victim	9346
offender and may impose a requirement in that sentence and	9347
judgment of conviction or in that order that the offender or	9348
delinquent child be subject to the community notification	9349
provisions contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the	9350
Revised Code. Unless the habitual child-victim offender also has	9351
been adjudicated a child-victim predator relative to the	9352
child-victim oriented offense in question, the offender or	9353
delinquent child shall be subject to those community notification	9354
provisions only if the court imposes the requirement described in	9355
this division in the offender's sentence and the judgment of	9356
conviction or in the order classifying the delinquent child a	9357
juvenile offender registrant. If the court determines pursuant to	9358
this division or division (C)(2) of this section that an offender	9359
is a habitual child-victim offender, the determination is	9360
permanent and continues in effect until the offender's death, and	9361
in no case shall the determination be removed or terminated.	9362

If a court in another state, a federal court, military court,	9363
or Indian tribal court, or a court in any nation other than the	9364
United States determines a person is a habitual child-victim	9365
offender in that jurisdiction, the person is considered to be	9366
determined a habitual child-victim offender in this state. If the	9367
court in the other state, the federal court, military court, or	9368
Indian tribal court, or the court in any nation other than the	9369
United States subjects the habitual child-victim offender to	9370
community notification regarding the person's place of residence,	9371
the person, as much as is practicable, is subject to the community	9372
notification provisions regarding the person's place of residence	9373
that are contained in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised	9374
Code, unless the court that so subjected the person to community	9375
notification determines that the person no longer is subject to	9376
community notification.	9377

(F)(1) An offender or delinquent child classified a	9378
child-victim predator may petition the court of common pleas or,	9379
for a delinquent child, the juvenile court of the county in which	9380
the offender or delinquent child resides or temporarily is	9381
domiciled to enter a determination that the offender or delinquent	9382
child is not an adjudicated child-victim predator in this state	9383
for purposes of the registration and other requirements of this	9384
chapter or the community notification provisions contained in	9385
sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code if all of the	9386
following apply:	9387

(a) The offender or delinquent child was convicted, pleaded	9388
guilty, or was adjudicated a delinquent child in a court of	9389
another state, in a federal court, military court, or Indian	9390
tribal court, or in a court of any nation other than the United	9391
States for committing a child-victim oriented offense.	9392

(b) As a result of the conviction, guilty plea, or	9393
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section, the	9394
offender or delinquent child is required under the law of the	9395
jurisdiction under which the offender or delinquent child was	9396
convicted, pleaded guilty, or was adjudicated to register as a	9397
child-victim offender until the offender's or delinquent child's	9398
death.	9399

(c) The offender or delinquent child was automatically	9400
classified a child-victim predator under division (A) of this	9401
section in relation to the conviction, guilty plea, or	9402
adjudication described in division (F)(1)(a) of this section.	9403

(2) The court may enter a determination that the offender or	9404
delinquent child filing the petition described in division (F)(1)	9405
of this section is not an adjudicated child-victim predator in	9406
this state for purposes of the registration and other requirements	9407
of this chapter or the community notification provisions contained	9408
in sections 2950.10 and 2950.11 of the Revised Code only if the	9409
offender or delinquent child proves by clear and convincing	9410
evidence that the requirement of the other jurisdiction that the	9411
offender or delinquent child register as a child-victim offender	9412
until the offender's or delinquent child's death is not	9413
substantially similar to a classification as a child-victim	9414
predator for purposes of this chapter. If the court enters a	9415
determination that the offender or delinquent child is not an	9416
adjudicated child-victim predator in this state for those	9417
purposes, the court shall include in the determination a statement	9418
of the reason or reasons why it so determined.	9419

Sec. 2950.10.  (A)(1) Regardless of when the sexually	9420
oriented offense or child-victim oriented offense was committed,	9421
if a person is convicted of, pleads guilty to, has been convicted	9422
of, or has pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense or a	9423
child-victim oriented offense or a person is or has been	9424
adjudicated a delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented	9425
offense or a child-victim oriented offense and is classified a	9426
juvenile offender registrant or is an out-of-state juvenile	9427
offender registrant based on that adjudication, if the offender or	9428
delinquent child is in any category specified in division	9429
(B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (d), or (e) of this section, if the	9430
offender or delinquent child registers with a sheriff pursuant to	9431
section 2950.04, 2950.041, or 2950.05 of the Revised Code, and if	9432
the victim of the sexually oriented offense or child-victim	9433
oriented offense has made a request in accordance with rules	9434
adopted by the attorney general that specifies that the victim	9435
would like to be provided the notices described in this section,	9436
the sheriff shall notify the victim of the sexually oriented	9437
offense or child-victim oriented offense, in writing, that the	9438
offender or delinquent child has registered and shall include in	9439
the notice the offender's name and photograph, and the address or	9440
addresses of the offender's residence, school, institution of	9441
higher education, or place of employment, as applicable, or the	9442
delinquent child's name, photograph, and residence address or	9443
addresses. The sheriff shall provide the notice required by this	9444
division to the victim at the most recent residence address	9445
available for that victim and not later than five days after the	9446
offender or delinquent child registers with the sheriff.	9447

(2) Regardless of when the sexually oriented offense or	9448
child-victim oriented offense was committed, if a person is	9449
convicted of, pleads guilty to, has been convicted of, or has	9450
pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense or a child-victim	9451
oriented offense or a person is or has been adjudicated a	9452
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense or a	9453
child-victim oriented offense and is classified a juvenile	9454
offender registrant or is an out-of-state juvenile offender	9455
registrant based on that adjudication, if the offender or	9456
delinquent child is in any category specified in division	9457
(B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (d), or (e) of this section, if the	9458
offender or delinquent child registers with a sheriff pursuant to	9459
section 2950.04, 2950.041, or 2950.05 of the Revised Code, if the	9460
victim of the sexually oriented offense or child-victim oriented	9461
offense has made a request in accordance with rules adopted by the	9462
attorney general that specifies that the victim would like to be	9463
provided the notices described in this section, and if the	9464
offender notifies the sheriff of a change of residence, school,	9465
institution of higher education, or place of employment address or	9466
the delinquent child notifies the sheriff of a change of residence	9467
address pursuant to section 2950.05 of the Revised Code, the	9468
sheriff shall notify the victim of the sexually oriented offense	9469
or child-victim oriented offense, in writing, that the offender's	9470
or delinquent child's address has changed and shall include in the	9471
notice the offender's name and photograph, and the new address or	9472
addresses of the offender's residence, school, institution of	9473
higher education, or place of employment, as applicable, or the	9474
delinquent child's name, photograph, and new residence address or	9475
addresses. The sheriff shall provide the notice required by this	9476
division to the victim at the most recent residence address	9477
available for that victim and no later than five days after the	9478
offender or delinquent child notifies the sheriff of the change in	9479
the offender's or delinquent child's residence, school,	9480
institution of higher education, or place of employment address.	9481

(3) Regardless of when the sexually oriented offense or	9482
child-victim oriented offense was committed, if a person is	9483
convicted of, pleads guilty to, has been convicted of, or has	9484
pleaded guilty to a sexually oriented offense or a child-victim	9485
oriented offense or a person is or has been adjudicated a	9486
delinquent child for committing a sexually oriented offense or a	9487
child-victim oriented offense and is classified a juvenile	9488
offender registrant or is an out-of-state juvenile offender	9489
registrant based on that adjudication, and if the offender or	9490
delinquent child is in any category specified in division	9491
(B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (d), or (e) of this section, the victim of	9492
the offense may make a request in accordance with rules adopted by	9493
the attorney general pursuant to section 2950.13 of the Revised	9494
Code that specifies that the victim would like to be provided the	9495
notices described in divisions (A)(1) and (2) of this section. If	9496

(c), or (B)(3)(a), (b), (c), or (d) of this section, the parole	11133

(c), or (d) of this section, the court, in accordance with section	11145
2971.05 of the Revised Code, may terminate the prison term or	11146
modify the requirement that the offender serve the entire term in	11147

(a) The offender has served at least the minimum term imposed	11149
as part of that prison term.	11150

(b) The parole board, pursuant to section 2971.04 of the	11151

(i) In the case of termination of the prison term, that the	11156
offender is unlikely to commit a sexually violent offense in the	11157
future;	11158

(ii) In the case of modification of the requirement, that the	11159
offender does not represent a substantial risk of physical harm to	11160
others.	11161

(4) An offender who has been sentenced to a term of life	11162
imprisonment without parole pursuant to division (A)(1), (2), or	11163
(4) of this section shall not be released from the term of life	11164
imprisonment or be permitted to serve a portion of it in a place	11165
other than a state correctional institution.	11166

shall be served consecutively with, and prior to, the prison term	11172
or term of life imprisonment without parole imposed upon the	11173
offender pursuant to division (A) of this section.	11174

(E) If the offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to two	11175
or more offenses for which a prison term or term of life	11176
imprisonment without parole is required to be imposed pursuant to	11177
division (A) of this section, divisions (A) to (D) of this section	11178
shall be applied for each offense. All minimum terms imposed upon	11179
the offender pursuant to division (A)(3) or (B) of this section	11180
for those offenses shall be aggregated and served consecutively,	11181
as if they were a single minimum term imposed under that division.	11182

(F)(1) If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a	11183
violent sex offense and also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a	11184
sexually violent predator specification that was included in the	11185
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging that	11186
offense, or is convicted of or pleads guilty to a designated	11187
homicide, assault, or kidnapping offense and also is convicted of	11188
or pleads guilty to both a sexual motivation specification and a	11189
sexually violent predator specification that were included in the	11190
indictment, count in the indictment, or information charging that	11191
offense, the conviction of or plea of guilty to the offense and	11192
the sexually violent predator specification automatically	11193
classifies the offender as a tier III sex offender/child-victim	11194
offender for purposes of Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code if the	11195
offender committed the offense on or after January 1, 2008, and a	11196
sexual predator for purposes of that chapter if the offender	11197
committed the offense prior to January 1, 2008.	11198

(2) If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to	11199
committing on or after January 2, 2007, a violation of division	11200
(A)(1)(b) of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code and either the	11201
offender is sentenced under section 2971.03 of the Revised Code or	11202
a sentence of life without parole is imposed under division (B) of	11203
section 2907.02 of the Revised Code, the conviction of or plea of	11204
guilty to the offense automatically classifies the offender as a	11205
tier III sex offender/child-victim offender for purposes of	11206
Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code if the offender committed the	11207
offense on or after January 1, 2008, and a sexual predator for	11208
purposes of that chapter if the offender committed the offense	11209
prior to January 1, 2008.	11210

(3) If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to	11211
committing on or after January 2, 2007, attempted rape and also is	11212
convicted of or pleads guilty to a specification of the type	11213
described in section 2941.1418, 2941.1419, or 2941.1420 of the	11214
Revised Code, the conviction of or plea of guilty to the offense	11215
and the specification automatically classify the offender as a	11216
tier III sex offender/child-victim offender for purposes of	11217
Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code if the offender committed the	11218
offense on or after January 1, 2008, and a sexual predator for	11219
purposes of that chapter if the offender committed the offense	11220
prior to January 1, 2008.	11221

(4) If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to one of	11222
the offenses described in division (B)(3)(a), (b), (c), or (d) of	11223
this section committed on or after January 1, 2008, and a sexual	11224
motivation specification related to the offense and the victim of	11225
the offense is less than thirteen years of age, the conviction of	11226
or plea of guilty to the offense automatically classifies the	11227
offender as a tier III sex offender/child-victim offender for	11228
purposes of Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code.	11229

Sec. 2971.05.  (A)(1) After control over an offender's	11230
service of a prison term imposed pursuant to division (A)(3),	11231
(B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (B)(2)(a), (b), or (c), or (B)(3)(a), (b),	11232
(c), or (d) of section 2971.03 of the Revised Code has been	11233
transferred pursuant to section 2971.04 of the Revised Code to the	11234
court, the court shall schedule, within thirty days of any of the	11235
following, a hearing on whether to modify in accordance with	11236
division (C) of this section the requirement that the offender	11237
serve the entire prison term in a state correctional institution	11238
or to terminate the prison term in accordance with division (D) of	11239
this section:	11240

(a) Control over the offender's service of a prison term is	11241
transferred pursuant to section 2971.04 of the Revised Code to the	11242
court, and no hearing to modify the requirement has been held;	11243

(b) Two years elapse after the most recent prior hearing held	11244
pursuant to division (A)(1) or (2) of this section;	11245

(c) The prosecuting attorney, the department of	11246
rehabilitation and correction, or the adult parole authority	11247
requests the hearing, and recommends that the requirement be	11248
modified or that the offender's prison term be terminated.	11249

(2) After control over the offender's service of a prison	11250
term has been transferred pursuant to section 2971.04 of the	11251
Revised Code to the court, the court, within thirty days of either	11252
of the following, shall conduct a hearing on whether to modify in	11253
accordance with division (C) of this section the requirement that	11254
the offender serve the entire prison term in a state correctional	11255
institution, whether to continue, revise, or revoke an existing	11256
modification of that requirement, or whether to terminate the term	11257
in accordance with division (D) of this section:	11258

(a) The requirement that the offender serve the entire prison	11259
term in a state correctional institution has been modified, and	11260
the offender is taken into custody for any reason.	11261

(b) The department of rehabilitation and correction or the	11262
prosecuting attorney notifies the court pursuant to section	11263
2971.06 of the Revised Code regarding a known or suspected	11264
violation of a term or condition of the modification or a belief	11265
that there is a substantial likelihood that the offender has	11266
committed or is about to commit a sexually violent offense.	11267

(3) After control over the offender's service of a prison	11268
term has been transferred pursuant to section 2971.04 of the	11269
Revised Code to the court, the court, in any of the following	11270
circumstances, may conduct a hearing within thirty days to	11271
determine whether to modify in accordance with division (C) of	11272
this section the requirement that the offender serve the entire	11273
prison term in a state correctional institution, whether to	11274
continue, revise, or revoke an existing modification of that	11275
requirement, or whether to terminate the sentence in accordance	11276
with division (D) of this section:	11277

(a) The offender requests the hearing;

11278

(b) Upon the court's own motion;

11279

(c) One or more examiners who have conducted a psychological	11280
examination and assessment of the offender file a statement that	11281
states that there no longer is a likelihood that the offender will	11282
engage in the future in a sexually violent offense.	11283

(B)(1) Before a court holds a hearing pursuant to division	11284
(A) of this section, the court shall provide notice of the date,	11285
time, place, and purpose of the hearing to the offender, the	11286
prosecuting attorney, the department of rehabilitation and	11287
correction, and the adult parole authority and shall request the	11288
department to prepare pursuant to section 5120.61 of the Revised	11289
Code an update of the most recent risk assessment and report	11290
relative to the offender. Upon the request of the prosecuting	11291
attorney or of any law enforcement agency, the department shall	11292
provide to the requesting prosecuting attorney and law enforcement	11293
agencies an institutional summary report prepared by the	11294
department that covers the offender's participation while confined	11295
in a state correctional institution in training, work, and other	11296
rehabilitative activities and any disciplinary action taken	11297
against the offender while so confined. The offender has the right	11298
to be present at any hearing held under this section. At the	11299
hearing, the offender and the prosecuting attorney may make a	11300
statement and present evidence as to whether the requirement that	11301
the offender serve the entire prison term in a state correctional	11302
institution should or should not be modified, whether the existing	11303
modification of the requirement should be continued, revised, or	11304
revoked, and whether the prison term should or should not be	11305
terminated.	11306

(2) At a hearing held pursuant to division (A) of this	11307
section, the court may and, if the hearing is held pursuant to	11308
division (A)(1)(a), (1)(b), or (3)(c) of this section, shall	11309
determine by clear and convincing evidence whether the offender is	11310
unlikely to commit a sexually violent offense in the future.	11311

(3) At the conclusion of the hearing held pursuant to	11312
division (A) of this section, the court may order that the	11313
requirement that the offender serve the entire prison term in a	11314
state correctional institution be continued, that the requirement	11315
be modified pursuant to division (C) of this section, that an	11316
existing modification be continued, revised, or revoked pursuant	11317
to division (C) of this section, or that the prison term be	11318
terminated pursuant to division (D) of this section.	11319

(C)(1) If, at the conclusion of a hearing held pursuant to	11320
division (A) of this section, the court determines by clear and	11321
convincing evidence that the offender will not represent a	11322
substantial risk of physical harm to others, the court may modify	11323
the requirement that the offender serve the entire prison term	11324
imposed under division (A)(3), (B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (B)(2)(a),	11325
(b), or (c), or (B)(3)(a), (b), (c), or (d) of section 2971.03 of	11326
the Revised Code in a state correctional institution in a manner	11327
that the court considers appropriate. If the court modifies the	11328
requirement for an offender whose prison term was imposed pursuant	11329
to division (A)(3) of section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, the	11330
court shall order the adult parole authority to supervise the	11331
offender and shall require that the authority's supervision of the	11332
offender be pursuant to division (E) of this section. If the court	11333
modifies the requirement for an offender whose prison term was	11334
imposed pursuant to division (B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (2)(a), (b),	11335
or (c), or (3)(a), (b), (c), or (d) of section 2971.03 of the	11336
Revised Code, the court shall order the adult parole authority to	11337
supervise the offender and may require that the authority's	11338
supervision of the offender be pursuant to division (E) of this	11339
section.	11340

(2) The modification of the requirement does not terminate	11341
the prison term but serves only to suspend the requirement that	11342
the offender serve the entire term in a state correctional	11343
institution. The prison term shall remain in effect for the	11344
offender's entire life unless the court terminates the prison term	11345
pursuant to division (D) of this section. The offender shall	11346
remain under the jurisdiction of the court for the offender's	11347
entire life unless the court so terminates the prison term. The	11348
modification of the requirement does not terminate the	11349
classification of the offender, as described in division (F) of	11350
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, as a sexual predator for	11351
purposes of Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code, and the offender is	11352
subject to supervision, including supervision under division (E)	11353
of this section if the court required the supervision of the	11354
offender to be pursuant to that division.	11355

(3) If the court revokes the modification under	11356
consideration, the court shall order that the offender be returned	11357
to the custody of the department of rehabilitation and correction	11358
to continue serving the prison term to which the modification	11359
applied, and section 2971.06 of the Revised Code applies regarding	11360
the offender.	11361

(D)(1) If, at the conclusion of a hearing held pursuant to	11362
division (A) of this section, the court determines by clear and	11363
convincing evidence that the offender is unlikely to commit a	11364
sexually violent offense in the future, the court may terminate	11365
the offender's prison term imposed under division (A)(3),	11366
(B)(1)(a), (b), or (c), (B)(2)(a), (b), or (c), or (B)(3)(a), (b),	11367
(c), or (d) of section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, subject to the	11368
offender satisfactorily completing the period of conditional	11369
release required by this division and, if applicable, compliance	11370
with division (E) of this section. If the court terminates the	11371
prison term, the court shall place the offender on conditional	11372
release for five years, notify the adult parole authority of its	11373
determination and of the termination of the prison term, and order	11374
the adult parole authority to supervise the offender during the	11375
five-year period of conditional release or, if division (E)	11376
applies to the offender, to supervise the offender pursuant to and	11377
for the period of time specified in that division. If the court	11378
terminates the prison term for an offender whose prison term was	11379
imposed pursuant to division (A)(3) of section 2971.03 of the	11380
Revised Code, the court shall require that the authority's	11381
supervision of the offender be pursuant to division (E) of this	11382
section. If the court terminates the prison term for an offender	11383
whose prison term was imposed pursuant to division (B)(1)(a), (b),	11384
or (c), (2)(a), (b), or (c), or (3)(a), (b), (c), or (d) of	11385
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, the court may require that	11386
the authority's supervision of the offender be pursuant to	11387
division (E) of this section. Upon receipt of a notice from a	11388
court pursuant to this division, the adult parole authority shall	11389
supervise the offender who is the subject of the notice during the	11390
five-year period of conditional release, periodically notify the	11391
court of the offender's activities during that five-year period of	11392
conditional release, and file with the court no later than thirty	11393
days prior to the expiration of the five-year period of	11394
conditional release a written recommendation as to whether the	11395
termination of the offender's prison term should be finalized,	11396
whether the period of conditional release should be extended, or	11397
whether another type of action authorized pursuant to this chapter	11398
should be taken.	11399

(2) Upon receipt of a recommendation of the adult parole	11400
authority filed pursuant to division (D)(1) of this section, the	11401
court shall hold a hearing to determine whether to finalize the	11402
termination of the offender's prison term, to extend the period of	11403
conditional release, or to take another type of action authorized	11404
pursuant to this chapter. The court shall hold the hearing no	11405
later than the date on which the five-year period of conditional	11406
release terminates and shall provide notice of the date, time,	11407
place, and purpose of the hearing to the offender and to the	11408
prosecuting attorney. At the hearing, the offender, the	11409
prosecuting attorney, and the adult parole authority employee who	11410
supervised the offender during the period of conditional release	11411
may make a statement and present evidence.	11412

If the court determines at the hearing to extend an	11413
offender's period of conditional release, it may do so for	11414
additional periods of one year in the same manner as the original	11415
period of conditional release, and, except as otherwise described	11416
in this division, all procedures and requirements that applied to	11417
the original period of conditional release apply to the additional	11418
period of extended conditional release unless the court modifies a	11419
procedure or requirement. If an offender's period of conditional	11420
release is extended as described in this division, all references	11421
to a five-year period of conditional release that are contained in	11422
division (D)(1) of this section shall be construed, in applying	11423
the provisions of that division to the extension, as being	11424
references to the one-year period of the extension of the	11425
conditional release.	11426

If the court determines at the hearing to take another type	11427
of action authorized pursuant to this chapter, it may do so in the	11428
same manner as if the action had been taken at any other stage of	11429
the proceedings under this chapter. As used in this division,	11430
"another type of action" includes the revocation of the	11431
conditional release and the return of the offender to a state	11432
correctional institution to continue to serve the prison term.	11433

If the court determines at the hearing to finalize the	11434
termination of the offender's prison term, it shall notify the	11435
department of rehabilitation and correction, the department shall	11436
enter into its records a final release and issue to the offender a	11437
certificate of final release, and the prison term thereafter shall	11438
be considered completed and terminated in every way.	11439

(3) The termination of an offender's prison term pursuant to	11440
division (D)(1) or (2) of this section does not affect the	11441
classification of the offender, as described in division (F) of	11442
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, as a tier III sex	11443
offender/child-victim offender or a sexual predator, as	11444
applicable, for purposes of Chapter 2950. of the Revised Code,	11445
does not terminate the adult parole authority's supervision of the	11446
offender, and, if the court had required the supervision of the	11447
offender to be pursuant to division (E) of this section, does not	11448
terminate the supervision of the offender with an active global	11449
positioning system device, pursuant to that division. The	11450
