142 State v. Hanson

PER CURIAM Defendant appeals from a judgment revoking his probation. Reviewing for abuse of discretion, State v. Kelemen, 296 Or App 184, 191-92, 437 P3d 1225 (2019), we affirm.

Defendant does not dispute that he violated his probation by consuming alcohol and crashing his parents’ car while intoxicated, as well as failing to appear for a court date. He argues, however, that his actions did not undermine the purposes of probation justifying revocation because he demonstrated sincere readiness to address his addiction, his relapse was part of his recovery process, and he had significant time left on his probation to allow him to complete treatment programs.

Defendant violated his probation and, on this record, the trial court acted within its discretion in revoking it. See OAR 213-010-0001 (“The decision to revoke probation is discretionary and may be exercised upon a finding that the offender has violated one or more of the conditions of probation , or that the offender has participated in new criminal activity.”); Kelemen, 296 Or App at 191 (“[T]he plain terms of [OAR 213-010-0001] make a trial court’s exercise of its revocation authority contingent on a finding of either a violation or a new crime.”).

Affirmed.
