Syllabus

Community control sanction R.C. 2929.15 2929.16, 2929.18 contrary to law. Offender was sentenced for the crime of aggravated assault, a felony of the fourth degree. The trial court was required to impose either a prison term or community control sanctions. The trial court sentenced offender to \time served\ and ordered the offender to pay the costs of prosecution. The sentence of \time served\ is not a community control sanction authorized by R.C. 2929.15 through 2929.19 and is thus contrary to law. Further, imposing costs of prosecution is not a community control sanction under R.C. 2929.19(A). Sentence is reversed, and the case remanded for resentencing.
