����� Combination of statutory definition of aggravated murder while escapee under ORS 163.095 and sentencing provisions of ORS 163.105 did not create unconstitutionally disproportionate sentence. State v. Isom, 313 Or 391, 837 P2d 491 (1992)
����� Statutory minimum sentence of 75 months (ORS 137.707) for sexual abuse committed by minor with no previous record was not unconstitutionally disproportionate punishment. State v. Rhodes, 149 Or App 118, 941 P2d 1072 (1997), Sup Ct review denied

����� To determine whether penalty is disproportionate as applied to specific defendant, court may consider both defendant�s conduct under statutory definition and case-specific factors, such as characteristics of defendant and victim, harm to victim, and relationship between defendant and victim. State v. Rodriguez/Buck, 347 Or 46, 217 P3d 659 (2009)
����� Legislature does not establish whether severity of penalty is constitutionally proportional to gravity of crime by enacting statutes that impose more severe penalties for more severe crimes. State v. Rodriguez/Buck, 347 Or 46, 217 P3d 659 (2009)

����� When sentencing defendant to life imprisonment without possibility of release or parole under ORS 137.719, court must consider totality of defendant�s criminal conduct and not merely ultimate offense, and where defendant has egregious and extensive history of criminal conduct with young girls, �true life� sentence does not violate this section. State v. Smith, 277 Or App 709, 372 P3d 549 (2016), Sup Ct review denied

State v. Althouse, 359 Or 668, 375 P3d 475 (2016)
����� Defendant�s intellectual disability is relevant consideration in proportionality challenge for sentence for crime committed by intellectually disabled offender; thus, court erred when comparing gravity of defendant�s offense and severity of Measure 11 sentence because court failed to consider evidence of defendant�s intellectual disability when that evidence, if credited, would establish that defendant�s sentence would be arguably unconstitutional because evidence shows defendant�s age-specific intellectual capacity fell below minimum age level of criminal responsibility for child. State v. Ryan, 361 Or 602, 396 P3d 867 (2017), on reconsideration 305 Or App 750, 473 P3d 90 (2020)

����� Defendant�s 90-month mandatory minimum sentence for unlawful use of weapon and first-degree robbery was not unconstitutionally disproportionate as applied to defendant where defendant�s conduct was deemed sufficiently grave due to fact that defendant created potential for violence and caused loss prevention officers to fear for their safety. State v. Jeffery, 329 Or App 380, 541 P3d 909 (2023)
Jury�s function
����� Instruction which permitted jury to infer an intent to steal from defendant�s presence in building did not violate this section. State v. Johnson, 55 Or App 98, 637 P2d 211 (1981), Sup Ct review denied
����� This section merely acknowledges that which is inherent in all juries, a power to acquit; it is not grant of authority to defendant to ask jury to exercise that power despite applicable law as instructed by court.

State v. Montez, 309 Or 564, 789 P2d 1352 (1990)
����� Requirement that life sentence be �with minimum sentence as provided by law� is more plausibly read as indicating intention to statutorily limit availability of release or parole rather than to require that sentence allow for possibility of release or parole. State v. Myers, 218 Or App 635, 180 P3d 759 (2008), Sup Ct review denied
����� This section bars only challenges to death penalty that are based on theory that death penalty is unconstitutional in all circumstances. State v. Rogers, 352 Or 510, 288 P3d 544 (2012), aff�d on other grounds, 368 Or 695, 499 P3d 45 (2021); State v. Bartol, 368 Or 598, 496 P3d 1013 (2021)

Art. I, Section 42
NOTES OF DECISIONS
����� Right of crime victim to be heard supersedes ex post factoprotection granted criminal defendant under section 21, Article I of Oregon Constitution, and does not violate ex post factoprotection granted under United States Constitution. State v. Guzek, 336 Or 424, 86 P3d 1106 (2004)
����� Resentencing of defendant as remedy for state violation of victim rights does not violate constitutional prohibition against double jeopardy. State v. Barrett, 350 Or 390, 255 P3d 472 (2011)
����� Trial court order that crime victim deliver clone of victim�s hard drive to court for placement in trial court file does not constitute �discovery� under this section. State/J.B. v. Bray, 352 Or 809, 291 P3d 727 (2012)
����� Right of victim to seek relief in trial court is not contingent upon whether defendant�s case is pending. State v. Thompson, 257 Or App 336, 306 P3d 731 (2013), Sup Ct review denied
����� Petitioner, who suffered economic damages, is not entitled under this section to collect full amount of those economic damages as defined in ORS 137.106 because �restitution� as used in this section does not use statutory definition of the term. State v. Algeo, 354 Or 236, 311 P3d 865 (2013)
����� Where plea agreement provided for restitution for two victims, amount of which was to be determined within 90 days, and within 90 days only one victim sought and was awarded restitution, awarding restitution to second victim after expiration of 90-day period violates defendant�s right under this section to benefit of bargain because defendant has due-process-protected interest in terms of plea agreement and granting restitution to second victim would result in reduction of defendant�s rights. State v. Lynch, 305 Or App 122, 469 P3d 800 (2020)
����� Crime victim�s constitutional right to be heard in dispositional hearing in delinquency proceeding did not automatically give crime victim �right� to access juvenile�s confidential court records. State v. C.P., 371 Or 512, 538 P3d 882 (2023)
LAW REVIEW CITATIONS: 87 OLR 717 (2008)
Art. I, Section 44
NOTES OF DECISIONS
����� Where defendant was convicted of four felony counts, one for each victim, then violated probation and trial court revoked probation and imposed consecutive sentences of incarceration for each felony count, mandatory sentencing guidelines that require imposition of concurrent incarceration sentences for probation revocation and do not permit trial court to impose consecutive sentences is unconstitutional because imposition of incarceration for probation revocation is �sentencing for crimes� as used in this provision. State v. Lane, 357 Or 619, 355 P3d 914 (2015)
Art. I, Section 45
