ROSSMAN, J.
Defendant appeals his convictions for kidnapping in the first degree, ORS 163.235, burglary in the first degree, ORS 164.225, and assault in the fourth degree, ORS 163.160. He argues that the trial court erred in placing him on probation for the kidnapping and burglary convictions, because it already had imposed a sentence on him for those offenses.
Following a sentencing hearing, the court issued a written "Order of Probation" that provided, in part:
"IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the defendant is
sentenced to pay a fine herein in the sum of $500.00, plus Police Training Assessment thereon in the sum of $30.00, plus a Victim Assistance Assessment of $50.00 on Count 1 [kidnapping in the first degree], and $50.00 on Count 2 [burglary in the first degree].
"IT IS FURTHER ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that
imposition of further sentence is suspended and Defendant is placed on probation to the Corrections Division of the State of Oregon for a period of five (5) years
upon the following conditions: That the Defendant
"1) Abide by 11 General Conditions Of Supervision attached hereto and incorporated herein;
"* * * * *
"8) Pay the fine and assessments through the Clerk of the Court on monthly installments as directed by the Probation Officer, but in any event said sums to be paid in full within three (3) years of the date of entry of this judgment." (Emphasis supplied.)
Thus, the order appeared both to place defendant on probation for the kidnapping and burglary convictions, making payment of the fine and assessments a condition of his probation, and to "sentence" him to pay the fine and assessments for the same crimes. Defendant paid the fine and assessments in full.
Defendant contends that the court erred in placing him on probation. He points out that "[p]robation is an alternative to the imposition of a sentence." State v. McClure, 295 Or. 732, 736, 670 P.2d 1009 (1983). Therefore, he argues, the trial court lacked authority to impose a sentence and probation for the same offense. Because the court already had imposed the "sentence" of paying a fine and assessments, he asserts, it erred when it also placed him on probation.
As the state concedes, defendant's assertion that the trial court had no authority "to order probation and, additionally, to impose a sentence" is correct. State v. Vasby, 101 Or. App. 1, 5, 788 P.2d 1024 (1990). The designation and terms of the order make it clear, however, that the trial court's intent was to suspend imposition of sentence and to place defendant on probation, making payment of the fine and assessments a condition of probation. That it was authorized to do. Accordingly, we vacate the sentences on counts 1 and 2 and treat payment of the fine and assessments as a condition of probation. See State v. Vasby, supra.
In State v. Vasby, supra, 101 Or App at 5, we stated:
"[P]robation is an alternative to sentencing a convicted defendant. In other words, the authority to order probation is conditioned on the suspension of imposition or execution of any sentence.
State v. Emmich, 34 Or. App. 945, 947-48,
580 P.2d 570 (1978). The court therefore lacked authority to order probation and, additionally, to impose a sentence."
In a memorandum of additional authorities, defendant has argued that, under State ex rel O'Leary v. Jacobs, 295 Or. 632, 636, 669 P.2d 1128 (1983), and State v. Parks, 90 Or. App. 170, 173-75, 751 P.2d 1115 (1988), "the trial court's power to order probation ended once [he] paid in full the fine and assessments." In Jacobs, the Supreme Court noted the "well established majority common law rule [that] a trial judge's power to modify or vacate a valid sentence ends once the sentence has been executed." 295 Or at 636. The court in Parks relied on the principle that "[i]f a defendant successfully appeals, no sentence can be imposed on retrial that is harsher than the first sentence." 90 Or App at 174. Neither case applies to defendant's situation, because we have construed the trial court's order as an order of probation, one condition of which is payment of the fine and assessments, rather than as a sentencing order.
Sentences on counts 1 and 2 vacated; remanded with instructions to enter judgment not inconsistent with this opinion.
