     (2021)                             375
    PER CURIAM
    Defendant appeals a judgment of conviction for
    second-degree assault, fourth-degree assault, attempting to
    elude, reckless driving, recklessly endangering, and other
    charges after he fled a traffic stop at high speed and crashed
    into two cars. Defendant makes multiple assignments of
    error, but most do not provide a basis for reversal. Thus,
    we reject the bulk of defendant’s assignments of error with-
    out discussion and address only defendant’s contention that
    the trial court erred in imposing a consecutive sentence on
    Count 9. The state concedes that the trial court so erred. As
    we explain below, we agree and accept the state’s concession.
    During sentencing, the trial court announced on
    the record that, “[o]n Count 9, Attempt to Elude, out of the
    vehicle, this is an executed jail sentence of one year, to run
    concurrent to [Counts] 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.” The judgment,
    however, reads that, on Count 9, “[f]or the reasons stated on
    the record, this sentence shall be consecutive to sentence[s]
    imposed on Count[s] 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.” Defendant contends that
    the court erred in changing the sentence from the concur-
    rent sentence expressed orally at the hearing to the consec-
    utive sentence, imposed outside of his presence. The state
    concedes that the court erred. We agree that the trial court
    erred and accept the state’s concession. See State v. Rossi,
    
    216 Or App 168
    , 169, 171 P3d 1031 (2007) (trial court erred
    in changing sentence from concurrent to consecutive outside
    of the defendant’s presence and without a waiver).
    Remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
