DATE OF JOURNALIZATION : APPEARANCES: For plaintiff-appellee: William D. Mason, Esq. Cuyahoga County Prosecutor BY: Brendan J. Mackin, Esq. Assistant County Prosecutor The Justice Center ­ 8th Floor 1200 Ontario Street Cleveland, Ohio 44113 For defendant-appellant: Paul Mancino, Jr. 75 Public Square Suite 1016 Cleveland, Ohio 44113 -2- MICHAEL J. CORRIGAN, P.J.: Defendant Alex Chandler appeals from his sentences for failing to comply with an order or signal from a police officer and possession of drugs. The court sentenced Chandler on the failure to comply charge without citing to any of the sentencing factors set forth in R.C. 2921.331(C). As for the possession charge, the court failed to state any reasons to impose a prison term as required by R.C. 2929.11, other than to note that Chandler had five prior convictions. The state concedes both assignments of error. Our review convinces us that the state's concession is justified. We therefore sustain the assigned errors. Reversed and remanded for resentencing. -3- This cause is reversed and remanded for resentencing for proceedings consistent with this opinion. It is, therefore, ordered that said appellant recover of said appellee his costs herein taxed. It is ordered that a special mandate be sent to said court to carry this judgment into execution. A certified copy of this entry shall constitute the mandate pursuant to Rule 27 of the Rules of Appellate Procedure. MICHAEL J. CORRIGAN PRESIDING JUDGE TIMOTHY E. McMONAGLE, J., and SEAN C.
