State v. Jordangreen

2008In State v. Jordan , 104 Ohio St.3d 21 , 2004-Ohio-6085 , 817 N.E.2d 864 , the Ohio Supreme Court held that a trial court must notify a defendant at the sentencing hearing about postrelease control and incorporate it into the journal entry.

2008Because we interpret State v. Jordan , 104 Ohio St.3d 21 , 2004-Ohio-6085 , and R.C. 2929.19 to require the trial court (not the prosecutor or a written document) to notify a defendant at the sentencing hearing about post-release control, we disagree.
