Petitioner seeks judicial review of an order of the Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision in which the board denied his request to reopen and reconsider its earlier order denying re-release on parole and setting a parole release date. The board has moved to dismiss the petition for judicial review on jurisdictional grounds, specifically, that its order denying petitioner’s request to reopen and reconsider is not a final order and, alternatively, that petitioner is not adversely affected or aggrieved by the order, as provided in ORS 144.335(1).1 We dismiss the petition for judicial review.
The following facts are undisputed. By order dated April 25, 2001, the board revoked petitioner’s parole. On August 22, 2001, after a future disposition hearing, the board denied re-release and set a parole release date of October 29, 2004. As pertinent here, in September, October, and November 2001, pursuant to OAR 255-080-0001 to 255-080-0015,2 petitioner sought administrative review of the board’s August 22 order, arguing that his sentences had expired before revocation and that the board had abused its discretion by denying re-release based on a mere technical violation of his conditions of parole. The board administratively reviewed its order and, on December 11, 2001, denied *626relief. Petitioner then sought judicial review in this court, which ultimately affirmed the board’s order without opinion. Wilcox v. Board of Parole, 192 Or App 673, 89 P3d 688, rev den, 337 Or 282 (2004).
Meanwhile, on July 10, 2003, while judicial review in that matter was still pending, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit decided Himes v. Thompson, 336 F3d 848 (9th Cir 2003). In that case, the petitioner was sentenced to prison for a crime committed in 1978. The board eventually released him on, then revoked him from, parole. In denying his re-release on parole, the board applied a rule adopted in 1994. The court determined that the board’s application to him of that rule violated the Ex Post Facto Clause of the United States Constitution3 because the rule “created a ‘sufficient risk’ of increasing the punishment attached to [the petitioner’s] crimes.” Id. at 854, 863.
On August 20, 2003, petitioner requested that the board reopen and reconsider his case under OAR 255-080-0010 to 255-080-0012, on the ground that the board had unconstitutionally applied to him the same rule that it had applied in Himes. On March 2, 2004, the board issued an order in which it concluded that petitioner had been requesting administrative review of its August 22, 2001, order and that the request had not been timely filed within 45 days as provided in OAR 255-080-0005. Alternatively, the board also determined that petitioner had already exhausted his administrative remedies with regard to its August 22, 2001, order by earlier requesting review of that order and receiving the board’s December 11, 2001, response to his request. The board also concluded that, to the extent that petitioner was requesting that the board reopen his case, a rule that provided for requests for reopening had been repealed in 1988. Finally, the board determined that, in any event, the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Himes did not assist petitioner because the reasoning and result in that case applied only to crimes committed between July 19,1978 and January 31,1979. The board denied review and denied petitioner’s request to reopen and reconsider his case.
*627Petitioner then filed this petition for judicial review of the board’s order. As noted, the board has moved to dismiss the petition. The board first argues that its March 2, 2004, order is not a “final order” within the meaning of ORS 144.335(1), as construed in Perez v. Board of Parole, 102 Or App 117, 792 P2d 1246, rev den, 310 Or 243 (1990). Alternatively, relying in part on Frey v. Board of Parole, 152 Or App 462, 950 P2d 418, rev den, 327 Or 173 (1998), the board argues that petitioner was not adversely affected or aggrieved by the board’s refusal to reopen and reconsider his case because the order “merely reiterates or maintains the status quo.” The board also argues that its criteria pertaining to reopening and reconsideration of a case — in particular, the criterion pertaining to information that was not available at the time of petitioner’s earlier hearing, see OAR 255-080-0010(3) — do not assist petitioner because the ex post facto principles that the Ninth Circuit applied in Himes, as well as petitioner’s arguments pertaining to the board’s rules and the proper calculation of his sentence, were available to petitioner at that time.4
Petitioner responds, in part, that, in order to be reviewable under the current version of ORS 144.335(1), an order need only demonstrate that the board was “exercising its jurisdiction.” Alternatively, as to whether the board’s order was a final order, he argues that Perez pertained to an earlier version of ORS 144.335(1) that did not include any requirement that a petitioner exhaust administrative remedies and that applied only to orders granting, revoking, or discharging parole. Petitioner also argues that the board’s order is reviewable as a final order because his request for reopening and reconsideration of his case constituted the exhaustion of administrative remedies as provided in ORS 144.335(l)(b). As to whether he was adversely affected or aggrieved by the order, petitioner again argues that amendments to ORS 144.335 abrogate the reasoning in the case relied on by the board in that regard. Petitioner further argues that, although OAR 255-080-0012(2) merely authorizes, and does not require, the board to reopen and reconsider *628a case, the board’s discretion is limited by OAR 255-080-0010, setting out criteria for granting review, including the circumstance that the board’s action “is in violation of constitutional * * * provisions.” OAR 255-080-0010(5). According to petitioner, the board’s motion to dismiss his petition fails to demonstrate that he did not meet that criterion and therefore demonstrates that the board was required to reopen his case. Finally, relying on Wolff v. McDonnell, 418 US 539, 557, 94 S Ct 2963, 41 L Ed 2d 935 (1974), and Jenkins v. Board of Parole, 313 Or 234, 243, 833 P2d 1268 (1992), petitioner argues that, by promulgating OAR 255-080-0010, the board created an opportunity to obtain board review of orders that now constitutes a substantial right of persons subject to board jurisdiction, the abrogation of which violates the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.5
The board replies that the reasoning in Perez as tó what constitutes a “final order” and the reasoning in Frey as to the circumstances under which a person is “adversely affected or aggrieved” by such an order for the purposes of ORS 144.335(1) are not dependent on any particular version of that statute. Rather, the dispositive consideration in those cases, as in this case, is the “fundamental nature” of the order at issue. The board also contends that, even assuming that petitioner’s request for reopening his case met the criterion in OAR 255-080-0010(5) for seeking administrative review of a board order (which the board disputes) and thus constituted the exhaustion of administrative remedies, the decision whether to grant reconsideration remains discretionary. Finally, the board contends that, consistently with Shelby v. Board of Parole, 140 Or App 102, 112-13, 915 P2d 414, rev den, 324 Or 18 (1996), the Due Process Clause does not entitle petitioner to judicial review of board orders. The board therefore again urges us to dismiss the petition for judicial review.
As pertinent here, a petitioner for judicial review of agency action must establish that the petitioner has standing, under the relevant statute, to invoke the judicial process. *629Local No. 290 v. Dept. of Environ. Quality, 323 Or 559, 564, 919 P2d 1168 (1996); see also Benton County v. Friends of Benton County, 294 Or 79, 82, 653 P2d 1249 (1982) (standing to seek judicial review of government action is not a generic concept but must be determined under the particular statute at issue). By its terms, ORS 144.335(1) (quoted at 197 Or App 625 n 1), requires a person over whom the board has exercised its jurisdiction6 to demonstrate that the resulting order was a “final order” by which he or she was “adversely affected or aggrieved.” As discussed below, we conclude that we need not determine whether the board’s March 2, 2004, order was a final order because, even assuming that it was, petitioner was not adversely affected or aggrieved by it within the meaning of ORS 144.335(1).
In determining the meaning of the phrase “adversely affected or aggrieved” in ORS 144.335(1), we apply the interpretive principles set out in PGE v. Bureau of Labor and Industries, 317 Or 606, 610-12, 859 P2d 1143 (1993), beginning with the text of the statute in context. Neither ORS 144.335(1) nor any other provision of ORS chapter 144 defines or otherwise indicates what is meant by the relevant phrase. The plain meanings of the verb “affect” include “to act upon” and “to produce * * * [an] alteration in.” Webster’s Third New Int’l Dictionary 35 (unabridged ed 2002). The adverb “adversely” means, in part, “unfavorably, disadvantageously.” Id. at 31. In addition, the adjective “aggrieved” means, in part, “having a grievance, specif: suffering from an infringement or denial of legal rights.” Id. at 41. See also Black’s Law Dictionary 1154 (8th ed 2004) (defining an “aggrieved party” as one “whose personal, pecuniary, or property rights have been adversely affected by another person’s actions or by a court’s decree or judgment”).
The quoted definitions of “adversely” and “affect” suggest that a person is “adversely affected” by a final order of the board when the order produces some unfavorable or disadvantageous effect on the person or detrimentally alters some previously existing condition or status of the person. The quoted definition of “aggrieved” suggests that a person is *630“aggrieved” by an order of the board when the order infringes on or denies a legal right of the person.
Applying those understandings here, we conclude that a person is not adversely affected or aggrieved for the purpose of ORS 144.335(1) by an order of the board in which it denies a request to reopen and reconsider an earlier final order that was itself subject to administrative and judicial review on the ground that the earlier order was erroneous when issued. As relevant to the plain meaning of the phrase “adversely affected,” the board’s order denying reconsideration is not the source of any unfavorable or disadvantageous effect on the person and does not itself detrimentally alter the person’s condition or status. And, as relevant to the plain meaning of the term “aggrieved,” assuming that the order is consistent with applicable standards and criteria — whether procedural or substantive — the order does not itself infringe on or deny a legal right of the person to whom it is addressed. Rather, the substance of any aggrievement suffered by the person was caused by the preceding board order that, in the current order, the board merely refuses to reconsider.
Stating the latter point in another way, we understand the “aggrievement” criterion to mean, in part, that the detrimental or disadvantageous effect on the person, if any, must be the direct result of the board’s current order. Cf. People for Ethical Treatment v. Inst. Animal Care, 312 Or 95, 99-102, 817 P2d 1299 (1991) (consistently with the legislative history and the court’s prior interpretations of the provision of the Administrative Procedures Act providing for judicial review of agency action, a person or entity is “aggrieved” within the meaning of that statute if, among other possible circumstances, the person or entity “has suffered an injury to a substantial interest resulting directly from the challenged governmental action” (emphasis added; citation omitted)). See also Teel Irrigation District v. Water Resources Dept., 323 Or 663, 678, 919 P2d 1172 (1996) (administrative agency’s letter that “merely reiterated” the agency’s earlier decision was not subject to judicial review under ORS 183.480(3), providing that any person “adversely affected or aggrieved” by an agency final order is entitled to such review).
*631Our interpretation of ORS 144.335(1) is consistent with Frey. In that case, the board established the length of the petitioner’s post-prison supervision term in a November 1994 order.7 The petitioner did not seek review of that order. In December 1994, the board issued another order in which it “continued” the PPS term previously imposed. This court concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the petitioner’s challenge to that portion of the December 1994 order, reasoning that, “[b]ecause the order on review did not change the [post-prison supervision term], petitioner was not aggrieved or adversely affected by that provision of it.” 152 Or App at 462-64.8
Nor is it significant that, at the time we decided Frey, the version of ORS 144.335(1) that was in effect differed in a respect other than the use of the term “adversely affected or aggrieved,” because that difference has no bearing on the proper meaning of the latter term.9 It also lacks significance that, as a procedural matter, Frey did not involve the denial of a request to reopen and reconsider a matter. Rather, whether a person is adversely affected or aggrieved within the meaning of ORS 144.335(1) by an order of the board is a fiinction of the nature and effect of the action taken by the board in that order. Again, the board’s March 4, 2004, order denying petitioner’s request to reopen and reconsider its earlier order is not subject to judicial review as provided in ORS 144.335(1) because petitioner was not “adversely affected or aggrieved” by the order within the meaning of that statute.
*632We close our discussion of the issue with two clarifying points. First, there is a body of case law decided by the Supreme Court and this court that addresses the standing component of the constitutional requirement that courts adjudicate only justiciable controversies. See, e.g., Utsey v. Coos County, 176 Or App 524, 529-47, 32 P3d 933 (2001), rev dismissed, 335 Or 217 (2003). Under that case law, a controversy is justiciable only if a judgment in the action will have a “practical effect” on the claimant. Brumnett v. PSRB, 315 Or 402, 848 P2d 1194 (1993). The issue before us is not one of constitutional justiciability but, rather, statutory standing. Therefore, we do not plumb the reaches of the practical effects concept here. Instead, we employ statutory construction principles.
Second, in doing so, we are mindful that the legislature in other contexts has used the terms “aggrieved or adversely affected” to limit standing to seek judicial review of agency decisions. See, e.g., ORS 183.480. However, we consider cases construing the term in different statutory contexts with a degree of caution. The Supreme Court has stated:
“When it is ruling on a standing issue, a reviewing court must focus on the wording of the particular statute at issue, because standing is not a matter of common law but is, instead, conferred by the legislature. See, e.g., Brian v. Oregon Government Ethics Commission, 319 Or 151, 156, 874 P2d 1294 (1994) (so holding); People for Ethical Treatment [, 312 Or at 99] (same, citing Benton County [, 294 Or at 82]; Rendler [v. Lincoln Co., 302 Or 177, 180, 728 P2d 21 (1986)]. In particular, it is important that courts not interpret the contours of standing in a particular case by looking at other statutes that confer standing in different circumstances. Benton County, 294 Or at 82. For example, this court in People for Ethical Treatment, in defining the concept of ‘aggrievement’ in the context of the APA, declined to draw parallels from earlier decisions in the land use context that had defined the same concept. 312 Or at 105.”
Local No. 290,323 Or at 566. In People for Ethical Treatment, the court interpreted the APA standing provision, ORS 183.480. It stated:
*633“From the legislative history and from our prior interpretations of ‘aggrieved’ person, we conclude that a person is ‘aggrieved’ under ORS 183.480(1) if the person shows one or more of the following factors: (1) the person has suffered an injury to a substantial interest resulting directly from the challenged governmental action, Ore. Newspaper Pub. [v. Peterson, 244 Or 116, 121, 415 P2d 21 (1966)]; (2) the person seeks to further an interest that the legislature expressly wished to have considered, Marbet v. Portland Gen. Elect. [, 277 Or 447, 457, 561 P2d 154 (1977)]; or (3) the person has such a personal stake in the outcome of the controversy as to assure concrete adverseness to the proceeding, Multnomah County v. Talbot[, 56 Or App 235, 242, 641 P2d 617 (1982), aff’d, 294 Or 478 (1983)]. The legislature has not granted standing under ORS 183.480(1) to those persons who merely are ‘dissatisfied with the agency’s order,’ Marbet, [277 Or at 457], or who have only an ‘abstract interest * * * in the question presented,’ Multnomah County, [56 Or App at 242], or who are mere bystanders, Gortmaker v. Seaton, 252 Or 440, 444, 450 P2d 547 (1969) (‘The advocacy of those who have something at stake in the outcome of * * * [an agency proceeding] is far more helpful to a court of law than are the academic speculations of bystanders.’).”
312 Or at 101-02 (final brackets in People for Ethical Treatment).
With that caveat in mind, even if the forms of aggrievement cognizable under ORS 183.480 apply under ORS 144.335(l)(a), we conclude that petitioner has not satisfied them in this case. First, as discussed, petitioner has not shown that he has suffered an injury to a substantial interest resulting directly from the board’s denial of reconsideration.
Second, petitioner has not identified any statutory indication that the interest he seeks to further is one that the legislature expressly wished to have considered. As noted, the legislature has not even provided for the type of reconsideration the denial of which petitioner seeks to have judicially reviewed; rather, such reconsideration is purely a creature of board rule.
Finally, petitioner does not fit the third category of aggrievement described in People for Ethical Treatment. That category, where the petitioner has “such a personal *634stake in the outcome of the controversy as to assure concrete adverseness [in] the proceeding,” 312 Or at 102, derives from this court’s decision in Multnomah County, 56 Or App 235, which the Supreme Court adopted in Multnomah County v. Talbot, 294 Or 478, 657 P2d 684 (1983). In that case, a county tax assessor sought to challenge the date on which the state preservation officer certified certain property as historic property. This court held that the assessor was an “aggrieved” person under ORS 183.480(1) because the assessor had a statutorily imposed involvement under the legislative scheme. The court determined that standing under the Oregon APA required “more than * * * [an] abstract interest * * * in the question presented.” Talbot, 56 Or App at 241-43. The category of aggrievement described in Talbot has never been applied to a person who was a party before the agency when it took the challenged action; rather, it logically applies only to persons who wish to challenge an agency action without the benefit of having had party status before the agency. In such circumstances, courts are properly concerned with a demonstration that true adverseness of interest exists before engaging in the task of judicial review.
None of those categories is applicable to the type of reconsideration that the board declined to undertake in this case. The board has authority to adopt rules establishing ranges of duration of imprisonment to be served for felony offenses before release on parole. ORS 144.780. Moreover, under specified circumstances, the board has authority either to accelerate or postpone release dates established in its previous orders. See, e.g., ORS 144.122; ORS 144.125; ORS 144.126. Consistently with those responsibilities, the board has adopted a rule, OAR 255-010-0012(2), authorizing it to “open a case” for the reconsideration of findings.10 Such administrative review is of a piece with a statutory scheme under which changes in an inmate’s circumstances or conduct may warrant the prospective modification of a previous parole release decision. When the board opens a case for the purpose of determining whether its previous order should continue to have prospective effect or, instead, should be *635modified for prospective purposes; the board performs a function that is qualitatively different from the one it performs when it declines to take any new action on a previous decision that is challenged on the ground that the previous decision was wrong when issued. In the former case, an unsuccessful petitioner may be aggrieved by an adverse board decision because it directly inflicts an injury to the petitioner’s substantial interest in the prospective modification of a previous order based on changed circumstances. In the latter case, however, the board’s decision on reconsideration has no effect on any previously existing condition or status of the inmate.
The foregoing discussion answers each of the dissent’s theses but, to be clear, we summarize those arguments and restate our responses here. First, the dissent asserts that our construction of “adversely affected or aggrieved” in ORS 144.335(1) bodes ominously for its meaning in other statutes. 197 Or App at 641-42 (Armstrong, J., dissenting). Not so. Our construction is context specific and follows the Supreme Court’s directive in that regard. See Local No. 290, 323 Or at 566.
Second, the dissent criticizes the board for stating in its order denying reconsideration that Himes does not apply to petitioner’s circumstances. 197 Or App at 643 (Armstrong, J., dissenting). Whether the board was correct in making that statement has no impact on the issue before us. The point is that the board was not even required to given an opinion on the issue, and the fact that it did so, albeit gratuitously, does not mean that petitioner was adversely affected or aggrieved by the order denying reconsideration.
Third, the dissent seems to agree that we have examined the proper sources in determining the meaning of the disputed statutory term. For example, the dissent approves the dictionary references that we have consulted. 197 Or App at 643-44 (Armstrong, J., dissenting).. It also endorses the factor for aggrievement under ORS 183.480 that the Supreme Court approved in People for Ethical Treatment that the person must have “suffered an injury * * * resulting directly from the challenged governmental action.” 197 Or App at 645 (Armstrong, J., dissenting). However, the dissent incorrectly applies those meanings to the *636circumstances before us. According to the dissent, the order denying reconsideration adversely affected or aggrieved petitioner because it “altered his status from a prisoner with a colorable argument that his continued incarceration was unlawful to that of a prisoner without such an argument.” 197 Or App at 644 (Armstrong, J., dissenting). That assertion exposes the heart of our disagreement. If, when the board denied reconsideration, petitioner had a colorable argument that his continued incarceration was unlawful under ex post facto principles, he had the same argument when the board issued its August 22, 2001, order. In other words, if petitioner’s ex post facto argument is right, the previous order was wrong when issued. Thus, the order denying reconsideration did not alter or directly cause petitioner’s status in that regard; it merely continued that status.
Fourth, the dissent’s effort to distinguish Frey is unavailing. 197 Or App at 644 (Armstrong, J., dissenting). In Frey, we held that the petitioner was not adversely affected or aggrieved by an order that did not change the petitioner’s circumstances, in that case his post-prison supervision term. Likewise, the board’s rejection on reconsideration here of a “new argument” about why a previous re-release decision was wrong did not change petitioner’s circumstances so as to adversely affect or aggrieve him. As the dissent may recognize, 197 Or App at 644 n 3 (Armstrong, J., dissenting), if its reasoning is correct, Frey was wrongly decided.
To be logically consistent, the dissent must believe that, if we affirm the board’s order denying reconsideration, petitioner could again ask the board to reconsider its August 22, 2001, order based on yet another “new argument” about why that order was wrong when issued and, when the board denied reconsideration a second time, be adversely affected or aggrieved for purposes of judicial review. We conclude that the legislature did not intend to devise such a system.
Finally, as noted, petitioner relies on Wolff in arguing that, by establishing substantive criteria for administrative review of board orders in OAR 255-080-0010, the board has created a right under the Due Process Clause to administrative review of its orders under OAR 255-080-0012(2), as *637well as to judicial review of the board’s denial of that review.11 For the following reasons, we disagree.
In Wolff, the State of Nebraska had by statute created a right to “good time” reductions of prison sentences. The United States Supreme Court explained that prison inmates therefore had a liberty interest in those reductions that was protected by the Due Process Clause, with the result that, when the state sought to deprive inmates of those reductions, the inmates were entitled to appropriate procedures “to insure that the state-created right is not arbitrarily abrogated.” 418 US at 557. Similarly, in Greenholtz v. Nebraska Penal Inmates, 442 US 1, 7, 11-12, 99 S Ct 2100, 60 L Ed 2d 668 (1979), the Court held that a state statute that required a parole board to release an inmate on parole under specified circumstances created a liberty interest protected by due process guarantees. See also Hewitt v. Helms, 459 US 460, 472, 103 S Ct 864, 74 L Ed 2d 675 (1983) (prison regulations containing mandatory directives regarding predicates to disciplinary action by prison administrators created liberty interests in freedom from such action that were subject to Due Process Clause protections); Hamel v. Johnson, 173 Or App 448, 454, 454 n 2, 25 P3d 314 (2001) (a statutory entitlement to parole may, under some circumstances, create a liberty interest cognizable under the Due Process Clause; citing Greenholtz).
In Sandin v. Conner, 515 US 472, 115 S Ct 2293, 132 L Ed 2d 418 (1995), however, the Court reconsidered whether, in the prison context, a liberty interest protected by the Due Process Clause properly should be viewed as arising from the language of a particular statute or regulation or, rather, from the nature of the interest itself. Id. at 481. The Court concluded that the inquiry properly goes to the latter and that an inmate is entitled to the procedural protections set forth in Wolff only when the deprivation of an interest is of a type that inherently implicates the Due Process Clause. *638Id. at 483-84.12 Thus, consistently with Sandin, even mandatory language in a state regulation does not necessarily create a liberty interest protected by the Due Process Clause.
Here, even assuming that OAR 255-080-0010— which, by its terms, applies to administrative review, see also OAR 255-080-0005, OAR 255-080-0011, and OAR 255-080-0012(1) — also establishes criteria for reopening and reconsidering cases under OAR 255-080-0012(2), nevertheless, the latter provision does not require that the board reopen and reconsider a case. Rather, it provides that the board “may” open a case for reconsideration.13 Accordingly, it falls significantly short of the type of governmental directive that might, under appropriate circumstances, give rise to a protected liberty interest.
Nor do we understand deprivation of the interest at stake here — petitioner’s interest in obtaining the reopening and reconsideration of the board’s earlier action and his interest in obtaining judicial review of the board’s denial of such reopening and reconsideration — inherently to implicate the protections of the Due Process Clause. We determined in Shelby that a petitioner was not entitled under the Due Process Clause to direct judicial review of the board’s action in deferring his parole because the procedures that the board had already afforded the petitioner in that case — notice and an opportunity to be heard — were adequate to protect his liberty interest in parole. Shelby, 140 Or App at 113. By contrast, in Jenkins, the Supreme Court determined that the board’s failure adequately to notify inmates of their right to judicial review impermissibly affected their “substantial right” to such review. 313 Or at 242-43. This case is like *639Shelby. The board previously afforded petitioner administrative review as provided in OAR 255-080-0012(1), that is, upon his earlier, and timely, request under that provision. The Due Process Clause requires neither farther administrative review — specifically, reopening and reconsideration of his case at some later time under OAR 255-080-0012(2) — nor judicial review by this court of the board’s order denying such further administrative review. Cf. Bartz v. State of Oregon, 314 Or 353, 368, 839 P2d 217 (1992) (“Due process — that is, the use of procedures that are fundamentally fair and essential for preventing miscarriages of justice — does not preclude a state from attaching a reasonable time limitation to the assertion of constitutional claims.”).14
We emphasize that the issue here is not the availability of other forums, if any, in which to raise a collateral challenge to a board action that is based on a later-decided judicial interpretation of applicable constitutional principles, including an interpretation that, if earlier announced, might have required a different outcome in the challenged action. We express no opinion on that issue. Rather, the only question before us is whether petitioner is entitled to judicial review of the board’s order denying reconsideration of its previous order denying re-release.
Because petitioner was not adversely affected or aggrieved within the meaning of ORS 144.335(1) by the order denying reconsideration, and because due process principles do not require either further administrative review of the *640underlying order or judicial review of the board’s order denying further administrative review, we grant the state’s motion to dismiss the petition for judicial review.
Judicial review dismissed.
ORS 144.335(1) provides:
“A person over whom the State Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision exercises its jurisdiction may seek judicial review of a final order of the board as provided in this section if:
“(a) The person is adversely affected or aggrieved by a final order of the board; and
“(b) The person has exhausted administrative review as provided by board rule.”
OAR 255-080-0001 provides that an order of the board is final for purposes of the time period for seeking judicial review when the inmate has exhausted his or her administrative review remedies, specifically, compliance with OAR 255-080-0005. OAR 255-080-0005 sets out procedures for requesting administrative review, including the requirement that the board receive the request within 45 days of the mailing date of the relevant board order. OAR 255-080-0010 sets out criteria for granting review. OAR 255-080-0011 sets out grounds for denying review, including failure to request review within 45 days of the mailing date of an order. OAR 255-080-0012 sets out the procedure for administrative review. OAR 255-080-0015 sets out the content of an “administrative review hearing packet.” Relevant portions of the enumerated rules are set out in greater detail in the discussion.
Article I, section 10, of the United States Constitution provides, in part, that “[n]o State shall * * * pass any * * * ex post facto Law.”
The board does not argue in this court that its rules currently do not provide for inmates to request the reopening and reconsideration of board orders.
The Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment provides that no state shall “deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law[.]”
The board does not dispute that it exercised its jurisdiction over petitioner.
The petitioner was subject to ORS 144.103, providing that the term of post-prison supervision of a person convicted of any of the specified sex offenses shall equal the difference between the person’s incarceration term and the maximum statutory indeterminate sentence for that offense.
In Willaby v. Board of Parole, 103 Or App 83, 88, 797 P2d 1050, rev den, 310 Or 547 (1990), we dismissed review of a petition for judicial review of a board order on the ground that the order did not change the actual duration of the petitioner’s confinement, as established in a previous order. Interestingly, we concluded that that lack of effect precluded judicial review on the ground that the later order was not a “final order” within the meaning of ORS 144.335(1).
The version of ORS 144.335(1) that was in effect in 1998, when we decided Frey, pertained to orders of the board relating to the granting, revoking, or discharging of parole, the revoking of post-prison supervision, and the imposition of conditions of parole or post-prison supervision. As pertinent here, the statute was amended to its present form in 2001. Or Laws 2001, ch 661, § 1.
The board has not asserted that it denied reconsideration on the ground that OAR 255-80-0012(2) is inapplicable in this case because petitioner did not ask the board to reconsider a “finding.”
The board apparently understands petitioner’s constitutional argument to relate solely to judicial review of the board’s denial of his request to reopen. Although it is not entirely clear, we treat petitioner’s argument as pertaining to both administrative and judicial review.
The Sandin Court recognized that the state could create liberty interests through its own regulations but explained that such interests “will be generally limited to freedom from restraint which, while not exceeding the sentence in such an unexpected manner as to give rise to protection by the Due Process Clause of its own force” — such as transfer to a mental hospital or the involuntary administration of psychotropic drugs — “nonetheless imposes atypical and significant hardship on the inmate in relation to the ordinary incidents of prison life.” 515 US at 484.
As noted above, more precisely, OAR 255-080-0012(2) provides that the board “may open a case for reconsideration of a finding * * * and without opening all findings for review and appeal.” (Emphasis added.) Again, the board makes no argument regarding the apparent limitation in that language, and we express no opinion regarding it.
Relying on Jenkins, the dissent reasons in part that the board’s order denying reconsideration was itself subject to the exhaustion requirement in ORS 144.335(1) and that the board therefore erred in failing to inform petitioner of that fact and in instead informing him that he was entitled to judicial review of that order. 197 Or App at 646-47 (Armstrong, J., dissenting). However, under the applicable rules as discussed above, an inmate’s request for reopening and reconsideration of a matter is properly viewed as itself constituting a stage, albeit an optional one, of the otherwise required exhaustion of administrative remedies as to that matter. In addition, although we have decided that petitioner is not entitled to judicial review of the board’s order denying reconsideration, the aspect of the board’s order informing him to the contrary does not require reversal and remand to the board. See 1000 Friends of Oregon v. LCDC (Clatsop Co.), 301 Or 622, 632, 724 P2d 805 (1986) (administrative agency cannot confer judicial review jurisdiction on a court where such jurisdiction does not otherwise exist; even if agency itself is estopped from denying that judicial review is available, court must make its own determination of jurisdiction in the particular case).
