OPINION

Farmer, J.

{¶1} On November 12, 2010, the Licking County Grand Jury indicted appellant, Brian Holland, on one count of illegally manufacturing drugs in violation of R.C. 2925.04 and one count of illegally assembling or possessing chemicals for the manufacture of drugs in violation of R.C. 2925.041. A jury trial commenced on March 22, 2011. The jury found appellant guilty. By judgment entry filed March 23, 2011, the trial court sentenced appellant to seven years in prison, and included a provision that appellant was not to be considered or released on transitional control.

{¶2} Appellant filed an appeal and this matter is now before this court for consideration. Assignment of error is as follows:

I

{¶3} “THE TRIAL COURT ERRED BY INCLUDING IN THE SENTENCING ENTRY A PROVISION THAT APPELLANT IS NOT TO BE CONSIDERED OR RELEASED ON TRANSITIONAL CONTROL.”

I

{¶4} Appellant claims the trial court erred by including in the sentencing entry a provision that he is not to be considered or released on transitional control. We agree.

{¶5} Based upon this court‘s well reasoned opinion in State v. Spears, Licking App. No. 10-CA-95, 2011-Ohio-1538, ¶34-38, this assignment of error is granted.

{¶6} The judgment of the Court of Common Pleas of Licking County, Ohio is hereby reversed, and the matter is remanded to said court for resentencing without the transitional control language.

By Farmer, J.
