OR HB2142

Amends ORS 475.925 to require a mandatory 36-month minimum prison sentence for unlawful delivery or manufacture of a controlled substance when the defendant has a prior conviction for the same offense within the previous five years

The 36-month minimum applies as a floor, with longer sentences required if law or Oregon Criminal Justice Commission sentencing guidelines prescribe a longer term

Prior convictions triggering the mandatory minimum include both completed offenses and attempted delivery or manufacture of controlled substances

Existing tiered sentencing remains in place: 58-130 months for large quantities (e.g., 500+ grams cocaine/meth, 100+ grams heroin/fentanyl) and 34-72 months for mid-level quantities (e.g., 100+ grams cocaine/meth, 50+ grams heroin/fentanyl)
