STATE v. CHATELAIN (2021)

In one of these consolidated cases, defendant was convicted by jury on two counts of fourth-degree assault constituting domestic violence. In that case, the jury was instructed that it need not reach unanimous verdicts, but the jury was not polled. In the other consolidated cases, defendant's probation was revoked based on his new criminal activity. On appeal, defendant raises several assignments of error concerning trial matters in the assault case, including an argument that the trial court plainly erred in instructing the jury that it need not reach unanimous verdicts. We reject without discussion all of defendant's arguments concerning trial except his argument that the court plainly erred in instructing the jury that it need not reach unanimous verdicts. Defendant contends that because of the erroneous jury instruction, all verdicts must be reversed in light of Ramos v. Louisiana, 590 U.S. ––––, 140 S. Ct. 1390, 206 L. Ed. 2d 583 (2020). We reject that argument for the reasons set forth in State v. Flores Ramos, 367 Or. 292, 478 P.3d 515 (2020) and State v. Dilallo, 367 Or. 340, 478 P.3d 509 (2020).

Affirmed.
