Before BUTTLER, P.J., and ROSSMAN and DE MUNIZ, JJ.
ROSSMAN, Judge.
Defendant appeals from a conviction for driving under the influence of intoxicants (DUII). ORS 138.040; ORS 138.053. We affirm the conviction without discussion but remand for resentencing.
Defendant assigns two errors regarding his sentence. First, he argues that the trial court exceeded its statutory authority in both sentencing him and placing him on probation in the same sentencing order. The trial court imposed a jail sentence of 30 days with 27 days suspended andas part of the same orderplaced defendant on probation for 36 months with conditions. Neither imposition nor execution of sentence was suspended. The sentence violates ORS 137.010.[1]State v. Vasby, 101 Or.App. 1, 788 P.2d 1024 (1990).
Because this issue may arise again on remand, we address defendant's challenges to the conditions of probation. He was required to "submit to [a] blood/breath/urine test if requested by police." The state concedes that the trial court erred by not limiting the tests to those intended to determine blood alcohol level. The state also concedes that there must be "reasonable grounds" to justify the tests. ORS 137.540(2)(k). We accept those concessions.
Defendant also argues that the trial court erred when it ordered that defendant submit to tests when requested by police. ORS 137.540(2)(k) provides:
"In addition to the general conditions, the court may impose special conditions of probation for the protection of the public or reformation of the offender, or both, including, but not limited to, that the probationer shall:
"* * * * *
"(K) Submit person, residence, vehicle and property to search by a probation officer having reasonable grounds to believe such search will disclose evidence of a probation violation." (Emphasis supplied.)
In State v. Schwab, 95 Or.App. 593, 771 P.2d 277 (1989), the state argued that ORS 137.540(2) gives courts the discretion to fashion special conditions of probation that conflict with the enumerated conditions of the statute, because the statute provides for conditions, "including, but not limited to" those listed. We refused to interpret the clause so expansively, saying:
"[T]hat language only allows a court to impose other types of conditions that are not already addressed in the statute. Conditions that the legislature specifically defined are statutory restrictions to which a court must conform when imposing probation conditions." 95 Or. App. at 597, 771 P.2d 277. (Emphasis supplied.)
The state essentially presents us with the same argument and invites us to overrule Schwab, because it "goes too far and proves too much."
We adhere to our holding in Schwab and again reject the argument that ORS 137.540(2) creates an unlimited right for courts to create terms of probation. If a special condition has been expressly included in ORS 137.540(2), the limits of that condition have been defined, and the court must conform to them. A court may order a person on probation to submit to a search only insofar as it conforms to the statute. ORS *278 137.540(2)(k) specifically designates the probation officer as the person to whom a person on probation may be required to submit for a search.
Conviction affirmed; remanded for resentencing.
