Notes of Decisions
Imposition of one-year jail term upon conviction of criminal activity in drugs was within maximum sentence authorized for crime, was imposed after defendant had violated probation, and did not shock the conscience. State v. Davis, 31 Or App 439, 570 P2d 683 (1977), Sup Ct review denied
Fact that defendant had at one time and place withheld property from 20 different victims was sufficient to constitute 20 separate theft offenses for each of which he could be sentenced. State v. Callaghan, 33 Or App 49, 576 P2d 14 (1978), Sup Ct review denied
Where defendant commits multiple felonies in separate situations but is prosecuted for all felonies in single proceeding, defendant can receive only one mandatory minimum sentence under this section. State v. Haywood, 73 Or App 6, 697 P2d 977 (1985)
