DOC Launches Immediate Sentence Reviews Following Supreme Court Clarification - 11/14/25

DOC reiterates commitment to community safety and transparency as it reevaluates judgments and alerts victims to potential changes in release dates. 

Today the Oregon Supreme Court issued further clarification concerning credit for time served if specified by the judicial system that the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) must consider during sentence calculation that began following the July 10, 2025, Torres-Lopez v. Fahrion decision.

Oregon Department of Corrections Director Michael Reese commented, “We are aware of the continued impact this Supreme Court decision has on victims, survivors of crime, and their families. The Department of Corrections is firmly committed to public safety, accountability, and transparency as we implement this mandate from the Oregon Supreme Court.”

To protect communities, DOC’s role in sentence calculation is to take the judgments from the courts and ensure adults in custody (AICs) serve their full sentences.

Today’s clarification will require another round of reviews of court judgments by DOC. It is unclear how many sentences will be affected at this time. To ensure clarity and support for everyone impacted, DOC has established multiple ways for affected parties to ask questions about changes to sentences.

Crime victims who want to receive updates about an offender's recalculated release date should subscribe to VISOR (Victim Information System in Oregon) if they haven’t already. Visit https://visor.oregon.gov/ to receive alerts about changes to an offender's current location, custody status, and release date. This system is the only way DOC can send updates to victims.

A website with examples of the sentences is available at: DOC Sentence Recalculation

As DOC assesses the impacts of today’s clarification, the agency remains committed to communicating decisions and impacts with victims and other public safety stakeholders. Additionally, DOC has recommended District Attorneys and Defense Attorneys review judgments with the court if they believe a change is in order.

Since the implications of the Torrez-Lopez v. Fahrion decision became clear, DOC has worked diligently to implement the sentence recalculation order and alert affected parties.

• The sentences of over 11,000 AICs have been reviewed.
• Crime victims who are registered with the Victim Information Services in Oregon (VISOR) alert system have been notified if changes have been made to sentences.
• DOC has been responsive to information requests from District Attorneys and State Legislators seeking to understand more about the Torres-Lopez v. Fahrion decision and its impacts to both victims and AICs.
• DOC has shared the full list of AICs who have had their sentences recalculated with District Attorneys.
