The court finds that the prison terms imposed pursuant to division
(B)(2)(a)(iii) of this section and, if applicable, division (B)(1) or

indicating a lesser likelihood of recidivism.

(v)
The court finds that the prison terms imposed pursuant to division

outweigh the applicable factors under that section indicating that
the offender's conduct is less serious than conduct normally

previously pleaded guilty, whether prosecuted together or separately.

(iii)
The offense or offenses of which the offender currently is convicted
or to which the offender currently pleads guilty is aggravated murder
and the court does not impose a sentence of death or life
imprisonment without parole, murder, terrorism and the court does not
impose a sentence of life imprisonment without parole, any felony of
the first degree that is an offense of violence and the court does
not impose a sentence of life imprisonment without parole, or any

2907.02 of the Revised Code and the penalty imposed for the violation
is life imprisonment or commits a violation of section 2903.02 of the
Revised Code, if the offender commits a violation of section 2925.03
or 2925.11 of the Revised Code and that section classifies the
offender as a major drug offender, if the offender commits a
violation of section 2925.05 of the Revised Code and division (E)(1)
of that section classifies the offender as a major drug offender, if
the offender commits a felony violation of section 2925.02, 2925.04,

that the offender is guilty of a specification of the type described
in division (A) of section 2941.1410 of the Revised Code charging
that the offender is a major drug offender, if the court imposing
sentence upon an offender for a felony finds that the offender is
guilty of corrupt activity with the most serious offense in the
pattern of corrupt activity being a felony of the first degree, or if
the offender is guilty of an attempted violation of section 2907.02
of the Revised Code and, had the offender completed the violation of
section 2907.02 of the Revised Code that was attempted, the offender
would have been subject to a sentence of life imprisonment or life
imprisonment without parole for the violation of section 2907.02 of
the Revised Code, the court shall impose upon the offender for the
felony violation a mandatory prison term determined as described in
this division that cannot be reduced pursuant to section 2929.20,
division (A)(2) or (3) of section 2967.193 or 2967.194, or any other

offense. If the court imposes an additional prison term under
division (B)(4) of this section, the offender shall serve the
additional prison term after the offender has served the mandatory
prison term required for the offense. In addition to the mandatory
prison term or mandatory and additional prison term imposed as
described in division (B)(4) of this section, the court also may
sentence the offender to a community control sanction under section
2929.16 or 2929.17 of the Revised Code, but the offender shall serve
all of the prison terms so imposed prior to serving the community
control sanction.

If
the offender is being sentenced for a fourth degree felony OVI
offense under division (G)(1) of section 2929.13 of the Revised Code

additional definite prison term of six years. A prison term imposed
on an offender under division (B)(10) of this section shall not be
reduced pursuant to section 2929.20, division (A)(2) or (3) of
section 2967.193 or 2967.194, or any other provision of Chapter 2967.
or Chapter 5120. of the Revised Code. If a court imposes an
additional prison term on an offender under this division relative to
a violation of division (A) of section 2903.11 of the Revised Code,
the court shall not impose any other additional prison term on the
offender relative to the same offense.

(11)
If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a felony violation
of section 2925.03 or 2925.05 of the Revised Code or a felony
violation of section 2925.11 of the Revised Code for which division
(C)(11) of that section applies in determining the sentence for the
violation, if the drug involved in the violation is a
fentanyl-related compound or a compound, mixture, preparation, or
substance containing a fentanyl-related compound, and if the offender
also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a specification of the type
described in division (B) of section 2941.1410 of the Revised Code
that charges that the offender is a major drug offender, in addition
to any other penalty imposed for the violation, the court shall
impose on the offender a mandatory prison term of three, four, five,
six, seven, or eight years. If a court imposes a prison term on an
offender under division (B)(11) of this section, the prison term
shall not be reduced pursuant to section 2929.20, division (A)(2) or

Chapter 2967. or 5120. of the Revised Code. A court shall not impose
more than one prison term on an offender under division (B)(11) of
this section for felonies committed as part of the same act.

(12)
If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a violation of
section 2903.04 of the Revised Code and if the offender also is

any other penalty imposed for the violation, the court shall impose
on the offender a minimum mandatory prison term of five years.

(C)(1)(a)

term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to division (B)(1)(a) of
this section for having a firearm on or about the offender's person
or under the offender's control while committing a felony, if a
mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to
division (B)(1)(c) of this section for committing a felony specified
in that division by discharging a firearm from a motor vehicle, or if
both types of mandatory prison terms are imposed, the offender shall
serve any mandatory prison term imposed under either division
consecutively to any other mandatory prison term imposed under either
division or under division (B)(1)(d) of this section, consecutively
to and prior to any prison term imposed for the underlying felony
pursuant to division (A), (B)(2), or (B)(3) of this section or any
other section of the Revised Code, and consecutively to any other
prison term or mandatory prison term previously or subsequently
imposed upon the offender.

(b)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to
division (B)(1)(d) of this section for wearing or carrying body armor
while committing an offense of violence that is a felony, the
offender shall serve the mandatory term so imposed consecutively to
any other mandatory prison term imposed under that division or under
division (B)(1)(a) or (c) of this section, consecutively to and prior
to any prison term imposed for the underlying felony under division
(A), (B)(2), or (B)(3) of this section or any other section of the
Revised Code, and consecutively to any other prison term or mandatory
prison term previously or subsequently imposed upon the offender.

(c)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to
division (B)(1)(f) of this section, the offender shall serve the
mandatory prison term so imposed consecutively to and prior to any
prison term imposed for the underlying felony under division (A),
(B)(2), or (B)(3) of this section or any other section of the Revised
Code, and consecutively to any other prison term or mandatory prison
term previously or subsequently imposed upon the offender.

(d)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to
division (B)(7) or (8) of this section, the offender shall serve the
mandatory prison term so imposed consecutively to any other mandatory
prison term imposed under that division or under any other provision
of law and consecutively to any other prison term or mandatory prison
term previously or subsequently imposed upon the offender.

(e)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to
division (B)(11) of this section, the offender shall serve the
mandatory prison term consecutively to any other mandatory prison
term imposed under that division, consecutively to and prior to any
prison term imposed for the underlying felony, and consecutively to
any other prison term or mandatory prison term previously or
subsequently imposed upon the offender.

(2)
If an offender who is an inmate in a jail, prison, or other
residential detention facility violates section 2917.02, 2917.03, or
2921.35 of the Revised Code or division (A)(1) or (2) of section
2921.34 of the Revised Code, if an offender who is under detention at
a detention facility commits a felony violation of section 2923.131
of the Revised Code, or if an offender who is an inmate in a jail,
prison, or other residential detention facility or is under detention
at a detention facility commits another felony while the offender is
an escapee in violation of division (A)(1) or (2) of section 2921.34
of the Revised Code, any prison term imposed upon the offender for
one of those violations shall be served by the offender consecutively
to the prison term or term of imprisonment the offender was serving

section 2913.02 of the Revised Code in which the stolen property is a
firearm or dangerous ordnance, or a felony violation of division (B)
of section 2921.331 of the Revised Code, the offender shall serve
that prison term consecutively to any other prison term or mandatory
prison term previously or subsequently imposed upon the offender.

(4)
If multiple prison terms are imposed on an offender for convictions
of multiple offenses, the court may require the offender to serve the
prison terms consecutively if the court finds that the consecutive
service is necessary to protect the public from future crime or to
punish the offender and that consecutive sentences are not
disproportionate to the seriousness of the offender's conduct and to
the danger the offender poses to the public, and if the court also
finds any of the following:

(a)
The offender committed one or more of the multiple offenses while the
offender was awaiting trial or sentencing, was under a sanction
imposed pursuant to section 2929.16, 2929.17, or 2929.18 of the
Revised Code, or was under post-release control for a prior offense.

(b)
At least two of the multiple offenses were committed as part of one
or more courses of conduct, and the harm caused by two or more of the
multiple offenses so committed was so great or unusual that no single
prison term for any of the offenses committed as part of any of the
courses of conduct adequately reflects the seriousness of the
offender's conduct.

(c)
The offender's history of criminal conduct demonstrates that
consecutive sentences are necessary to protect the public from future
crime by the offender.

(5)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to
division (B)(5) or (6) of this section, the offender shall serve the
mandatory prison term consecutively to and prior to any prison term
imposed for the underlying violation of division (A)(1) or (2) of
section 2903.06 of the Revised Code pursuant to division (A) of this
section or section 2929.142 of the Revised Code. If a mandatory
prison term is imposed upon an offender pursuant to division (B)(5)
of this section, and if a mandatory prison term also is imposed upon
the offender pursuant to division (B)(6) of this section in relation
to the same violation, the offender shall serve the mandatory prison
term imposed pursuant to division (B)(5) of this section
consecutively to and prior to the mandatory prison term imposed
pursuant to division (B)(6) of this section and consecutively to and
prior to any prison term imposed for the underlying violation of
division (A)(1) or (2) of section 2903.06 of the Revised Code
pursuant to division (A) of this section or section 2929.142 of the
Revised Code.

(6)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed on an offender pursuant to
division (B)(9) of this section, the offender shall serve the
mandatory prison term consecutively to and prior to any prison term
imposed for the underlying violation of division (A)(1) or (2) of
section 2903.11 of the Revised Code and consecutively to and prior to
any other prison term or mandatory prison term previously or
subsequently imposed on the offender.

(7)
If a mandatory prison term is imposed on an offender pursuant to
division (B)(10) of this section, the offender shall serve that
mandatory prison term consecutively to and prior to any prison term
imposed for the underlying felonious assault. Except as otherwise
provided in division (C) of this section, any other prison term or
mandatory prison term previously or subsequently imposed upon the
offender may be served concurrently with, or consecutively to, the
prison term imposed pursuant to division (B)(10) of this section.

(8)
Any prison term imposed for a violation of section 2903.04 of the
Revised Code that is based on a violation of section 2925.03 or
2925.11 of the Revised Code or on a violation of section 2925.05 of
the Revised Code that is not funding of marihuana trafficking shall
run consecutively to any prison term imposed for the violation of
section 2925.03 or 2925.11 of the Revised Code or for the violation
of section 2925.05 of the Revised Code that is not funding of
marihuana trafficking.

(9)
When consecutive prison terms are imposed pursuant to division
(C)(1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), or (8) or division (H)(1) or
(2) of this section, subject to division (C)(10) of this section, the
term to be served is the aggregate of all of the terms so imposed.

(10)
When a court sentences an offender to a non-life felony indefinite
prison term, any definite prison term or mandatory definite prison
term previously or subsequently imposed on the offender in addition
to that indefinite sentence that is required to be served
consecutively to that indefinite sentence shall be served prior to
the indefinite sentence.

(11)
If a court is sentencing an offender for a felony of the first or
second degree, if division (A)(1)(a) or (2)(a) of this section
applies with respect to the sentencing for the offense, and if the
court is required under the Revised Code section that sets forth the
offense or any other Revised Code provision to impose a mandatory
prison term for the offense, the court shall impose the required
mandatory prison term as the minimum term imposed under division
(A)(1)(a) or (2)(a) of this section, whichever is applicable.

(D)(1)
If a court imposes a prison term, other than a term of life
imprisonment, for a felony of the first degree, for a felony of the
second degree, for a felony sex offense, or for a felony of the third
degree that is an offense of violence and that is not a felony sex
offense, it shall include in the sentence a requirement that the
offender be subject to a period of post-release control after the
offender's release from imprisonment, in accordance with section
2967.28 of the Revised Code. If a court imposes a sentence including
a prison term of a type described in this division on or after July
11, 2006, the failure of a court to include a post-release control
requirement in the sentence pursuant to this division does not
negate, limit, or otherwise affect the mandatory period of
post-release control that is required for the offender under division
(B) of section 2967.28 of the Revised Code. Section 2929.191 of the
Revised Code applies if, prior to July 11, 2006, a court imposed a
sentence including a prison term of a type described in this division
and failed to include in the sentence pursuant to this division a
statement regarding post-release control.

(2)
If a court imposes a prison term for a felony of the third, fourth,
or fifth degree that is not subject to division (D)(1) of this
section, it shall include in the sentence a requirement that the
offender be subject to a period of post-release control after the
offender's release from imprisonment, in accordance with that
division, if the parole board determines that a period of
post-release control is necessary. Section 2929.191 of the Revised
Code applies if, prior to July 11, 2006, a court imposed a sentence
including a prison term of a type described in this division and
failed to include in the sentence pursuant to this division a
statement regarding post-release control.

(E)
The court shall impose sentence upon the offender in accordance with
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, and Chapter 2971. of the Revised
Code applies regarding the prison term or term of life imprisonment
without parole imposed upon the offender and the service of that term
of imprisonment if any of the following apply:

(1)
A person is convicted of or pleads guilty to a violent sex offense or
a designated homicide, assault, or kidnapping offense, and, in
relation to that offense, the offender is adjudicated a sexually
violent predator.

(2)
A person is convicted of or pleads guilty to a violation of division
(A)(1)(b) of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code committed on or
after January 2, 2007, and either the court does not impose a

(B) of section 2907.02 of the Revised Code, or division (B) of
section 2907.02 of the Revised Code provides that the court shall not
sentence the offender pursuant to section 2971.03 of the Revised
Code.

(3)
A person is convicted of or pleads guilty to attempted rape committed
on or after January 2, 2007, and a specification of the type

Revised Code.

(4)
A person is convicted of or pleads guilty to a violation of section
2905.01 of the Revised Code committed on or after January 1, 2008,

(5)
A person is convicted of or pleads guilty to aggravated murder
committed on or after January 1, 2008, and division (A)(2)(b)(ii) of
section 2929.022, division (A)(1)(e), (C)(1)(a)(v), (C)(2)(a)(ii),
(D)(2)(b), (D)(3)(a)(iv), or (E)(1)(a)(iv) of section 2929.03, or
division (A) or (B) of section 2929.06 of the Revised Code requires
the court to sentence the offender pursuant to division (B)(3) of
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code.

(6)
A person is convicted of or pleads guilty to murder committed on or
after January 1, 2008, and division (B)(2) of section 2929.02 of the
Revised Code requires the court to sentence the offender pursuant to
section 2971.03 of the Revised Code.

is sentenced to a prison term or term of imprisonment under this
section, sections 2929.02 to 2929.06 of the Revised Code, section
2929.142 of the Revised Code, section 2971.03 of the Revised Code, or
any other provision of law, section 5120.163 of the Revised Code
applies regarding the person while the person is confined in a state
correctional institution.

(G)
If an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to a felony that
is an offense of violence also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a
specification of the type described in section 2941.142 of the
Revised Code that charges the offender with having committed the
felony while participating in a criminal gang, the court shall impose
upon the offender an additional prison term of one, two, or three
years.

safety zone, the court shall impose upon the offender an additional
prison term of two years. The offender shall serve the additional two
years consecutively to and prior to the prison term imposed for the
underlying offense.

(2)(a)
If an offender is convicted of or pleads guilty to a felony violation
of section 2907.22, 2907.24, 2907.241, or 2907.25 of the Revised Code
and to a specification of the type described in section 2941.1421 of
the Revised Code and if the court imposes a prison term on the
offender for the felony violation, the court may impose upon the
offender an additional prison term as follows:

(i)
Subject to division (H)(2)(a)(ii) of this section, an additional
prison term of one, two, three, four, five, or six months;

(ii)
If the offender previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to
one or more felony or misdemeanor violations of section 2907.22,
2907.23, 2907.24, 2907.241, or 2907.25 of the Revised Code and also

In lieu of imposing an additional prison term under division
(H)(2)(a) of this section, the court may directly impose on the
offender a sanction that requires the offender to wear a real-time
processing, continual tracking electronic monitoring device during
the period of time specified by the court. The period of time
specified by the court shall equal the duration of an additional
prison term that the court could have imposed upon the offender under
division (H)(2)(a) of this section. A sanction imposed under this
division shall commence on the date specified by the court, provided
that the sanction shall not commence until after the offender has
served the prison term imposed for the felony violation of section
2907.22, 2907.24, 2907.241, or 2907.25 of the Revised Code and any
residential sanction imposed for the violation under section 2929.16
of the Revised Code. A sanction imposed under this division shall be
considered to be a community control sanction for purposes of section
2929.15 of the Revised Code, and all provisions of the Revised Code
that pertain to community control sanctions shall apply to a sanction
imposed under this division, except to the extent that they would by
their nature be clearly inapplicable. The offender shall pay all
costs associated with a sanction imposed under this division,
including the cost of the use of the monitoring device.

(I)
At the time of sentencing, the court may recommend the offender for
placement in a program of shock incarceration under section 5120.031
of the Revised Code or for placement in an intensive program prison
under section 5120.032 of the Revised Code, disapprove placement of
the offender in a program of shock incarceration or an intensive
program prison of that nature, or make no recommendation on placement
of the offender. In no case shall the department of rehabilitation
and correction place the offender in a program or prison of that
nature unless the department determines as specified in section
5120.031 or 5120.032 of the Revised Code, whichever is applicable,
that the offender is eligible for the placement.

If
the court disapproves placement of the offender in a program or
prison of that nature, the department of rehabilitation and

incarceration or in an intensive program prison, and if the offender
is subsequently placed in the recommended program or prison, the
department shall notify the court of the placement and shall include

the court does not make a recommendation under this division with
respect to an offender and if the department determines as specified
in section 5120.031 or 5120.032 of the Revised Code, whichever is
applicable, that the offender is eligible for placement in a program
or prison of that nature, the department shall screen the offender
and determine if there is an available program of shock incarceration
or an intensive program prison for which the offender is suited. If
there is an available program of shock incarceration or an intensive
program prison for which the offender is suited, the department shall
notify the court of the proposed placement of the offender as
specified in section 5120.031 or 5120.032 of the Revised Code and
shall include with the notice a brief description of the placement.

disapprove the placement.

(J)
If a person is convicted of or pleads guilty to aggravated vehicular
homicide in violation of division (A)(1) of section 2903.06 of the
Revised Code and division (B)(2)(c) or (d) of that section applies,
the person shall be sentenced pursuant to section 2929.142 of the
Revised Code.

(K)(1)
The court shall impose an additional mandatory prison term of two,
three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, or eleven years on
an offender who is convicted of or pleads guilty to a violent felony
offense if the offender also is convicted of or pleads guilty to a
specification of the type described in section 2941.1424 of the
Revised Code that charges that the offender is a violent career
criminal and had a firearm on or about the offender's person or under
the offender's control while committing the presently charged violent
felony offense and displayed or brandished the firearm, indicated
that the offender possessed a firearm, or used the firearm to
facilitate the offense. The offender shall serve the prison term
imposed under this division consecutively to and prior to the prison
term imposed for the underlying offense. The prison term shall not be
reduced pursuant to section 2929.20, division (A)(2) or (3) of
section 2967.193 or 2967.194, or any other provision of Chapter 2967.
or 5120. of the Revised Code. A court may not impose more than one
sentence under division (B)(2)(a) of this section and this division
for acts committed as part of the same act or transaction.

(2)
As used in division (K)(1) of this section, "violent career
criminal" and "violent felony offense" have the same
meanings as in section 2923.132 of the Revised Code.
