PER CURIAM
Sentence vacated; remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
Defendant appeals a judgment of conviction on counts of manufacture of a controlled substance, delivery of a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance, and unlawful possession of a destructive device. He contends that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence. We reject that contention without discussion. He also contends that the trial court erred in imposing departure sentences on the controlled substance convictions based on findings by the court of persistent involvement in similar offenses and failure of repeated terms of supervision and incarceration to deter further criminal conduct. Defendant concedes that he did not object to the sentences at trial, but he argues that, under Blakely v. Washington, 542 US 296, 124 S Ct 2531, 159 L Ed 2d 403 (2004), and Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 US 466, 120 S Ct 2348, 147 L Ed 2d 435 (2000), the sentences now amount to reviewable plain error because they violate his constitutional right to have such departure factors determined by a jury. Under our decision in State v. Perez, 196 Or App 364, 372-73, 102 P3d 705 (2004), rev allowed, 338 Or 488 (2005), defendant is correct.
Sentence vacated; remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
