Opinion

Defendant appeals a judgment of conviction for unauthorized use of a vehicle (UUV), ORS 164.135, and possession of a stolen vehicle, ORS 819.300. She argues that the trial court erred in denying her motion for judgment of acquittal on the UUV count. We reject that argument without discussion. Defendant also argues that the trial court plainly erred in imposing $600 in attorney fees because the record does not support a conclusion that she is or may be able to pay them. The state concedes that this constitutes plain error. We agree, accept the states concession, and, in light of the circumstances and gravity of the error, exercise our discretion to correct it. See generally State v. Harris, 293 Or. App. 110, 111-12, 426 P.3d 252 (2018) (correcting similar error).

Portion of judgment requiring defendant to pay attorney fees reversed; otherwise affirmed.
