Defendant was convicted of felony assault in the fourth degree. The trial court imposed a departure sentence based on findings of deliberate cruelty, a particularly vulnerable victim, persistent involvement in similar crimes, and defendant’s failure to accept responsibility for his conduct. The trial court also imposed an order of restitution in the amount of $740.
On appeal, defendant argues that the departure sentence is unlawful because it is based on facts not admitted or found by a jury, in violation of
Blakely v. Washington,
Defendant challenges the order of restitution on similar grounds. We need not address defendant’s argument, however, in light of the scope of our remand. ORS 138.222(5);
State v. Edson,
Sentence vacated; remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
