PER CURIAM

¶1The state and defendant petition for reconsideration of our decision in State v. Truong, 265 Or App 730, 337 P3d 845 (2014), contending that our disposition was erroneous. We grant reconsideration, and, for the reasons stated below, withdraw our former disposition and substitute a new one.

¶2The judgment that defendant appealed reflected (1) convictions on Counts 2, 6, 7, and 8; (2) the merger of the guilty verdict on Count 3 with Count 2, and (3) defendant’s acquittal on Counts 1, 4, and 5. On appeal, we concluded that the court committed an evidentiary error that was not harmless. Our disposition stated, “Reversed and remanded on Counts 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8; remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.”

¶3On reconsideration, both parties contend that our disposition was erroneous because, having reversed and remanded on the five identified counts, there was no reason “to conduct a new sentencing hearing unless defendant is found guilty following a new trial.” We agree. Accordingly, the parties are correct that we should not have remanded the case for resentencing.

¶4Reconsideration allowed; former disposition withdrawn; reversed and remanded on Counts 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8; otherwise affirmed.
