Before SCHWAB, C.J., and FOLEY and FORT, JJ.
FOLEY, Judge.
Petitioner pleaded not guilty on April 27, 1970, to a first degree murder indictment filed on February 26, 1970, in Marion County. On May 7, 1970, he waived a grand jury indictment on a charge of second degree murder and pleaded guilty to that same charge. The guilty plea followed lengthy, unsuccessful negotiations to permit him to plead to involuntary manslaughter. Petitioner was sentenced to 15 years and in the post-conviction hearing raised successfully the question before us on this appeal: Is a guilty plea knowingly and voluntarily entered if a seven-year parole ineligibility is not known to the defendant? Should the parole ineligibility be considered a legal consequence of the plea?
The post-conviction court found that Jones had not been advised by either his attorney or the court that he would not be eligible for parole until he had served a *1039 minimum sentence of seven years for the second degree murder conviction.[1] The post-conviction court then stated:
"Under ordinary circumstances, it would be irrelevant whether or not a defendant was advised regarding the matter of parole, but in the case of murder, where the Legislature has made an exception to the general rule of indeterminate sentences by establishing a mandatory minimum which must be served, the failure of a defendant to be made aware of his ineligibility for parole renders a plea of guilty involuntary."
In Oregon there is a constitutional right to be advised of the basic legal consequences of a guilty plea. As we noted in Fletcher v. Cupp, 1 Or. App. 467, 463 P.2d 365 (1969), Sup.Ct. review denied (1970), quoting from Lay v. Cupp, 1 Or. App. 296, 462 P.2d 443 (1969):
"A defendant accused of crime has a constitutional right to be advised before a guilty plea of the basic legal consequences of the plea, including the maximum penalty assessable under the charge * * *." 1 Or. App. at 471.
The same result has also been reached in Nealy v. Cupp, 2 Or. App. 240, 467 P.2d 649 (1970), citing the earlier case of Dixon v. Gladden, 250 Or. 580, 585, 444 P.2d 11 (1968).
The question whether a defendant must be advised of parole ineligibility has not previously been resolved in Oregon. There is a division of authority among the federal appeals courts. Those that require that a defendant be advised of parole ineligibility hold that this is a consequence of a guilty plea, and that for the plea to be voluntary, the defendant must have been advised of this consequence of his plea. Bye v. United States, 435 F.2d 177 (2d Cir.1970); Harris v. United States, 426 F.2d 99 (6th Cir.1970); Jenkins v. United States, 420 F.2d 433 (10th Cir.1970); Durant v. United States, 410 F.2d 689 (1st Cir.1969); Berry v. United States, 412 F.2d 189 (3d Cir.1969); and Munich v. United States, 337 F.2d 356 (9th Cir.1964).
The other line of federal cases reasons that ineligibility for parole is not "a `consequence' of a plea of guilty," but a matter of legislative grace.
"* * * [N]on-eligibility for parole is not a `consequence' of a plea of guilty * * * rather it is a consequence of the withholding of legislative grace." Smith v. United States, 116 U.S.App.D.C. 404, 324 F.2d 436, 441 (1963), cert. denied 376 U.S. 957, 84 S.Ct. 978, 11 L.Ed.2d 975 (1964).
Trujillo v. United States, 377 F.2d 266 (5th Cir.1967), cert. denied 389 U.S. 899, 88 S.Ct. 224, 19 L.Ed.2d 221 (1967), is to the same effect. In Spradley v. United States, 421 F.2d 1043 (5th Cir.1970), the defendant had pleaded guilty to a narcotics offense for which he was precluded from parole. The sentencing judge through inadvertence impliedly suggested to defendant that he would be eligible for parole after he had served one-third of his time. On appeal the court announced that the rule in Trujillo ought not to be extended beyond its bare facts and held that defendant was entitled to vacation of the sentence and plea in the light of the misinformation given by the trial court. Thereafter in Onick v. United States, 425 F.2d 1292, 1293 (5th Cir.), cert. denied 400 U.S. 846, 91 S.Ct. 92, 27 L.Ed.2d 83 (1970), the court again, following Trujillo, said:
"In Trujillo, we held that Fed.R. Crim.P. Rule 11[2] does not require that *1040 the defendant be informed of his ineligibility for parole before a guilty plea can be accepted. We reaffirmed that holding in Sanchez v. United States, 5 Cir.1969, 417 F.2d 494. Therefore, we affirm * * *."
It is necessary to draw a line as to what must be told a defendant as the "basic legal consequences" of his plea of guilty. The cases seem to agree that effects such as loss of passport, deportation, loss of voting privileges and undesirable discharge are "too remote." The court in Durant v. United States, supra, said:
"* * * [These matters are] collateral consequences, civil in nature, while parole goes directly to the length of time a defendant is to be incarcerated." 410 F.2d at 692.
But other matters go to the length of time a defendant may be incarcerated. For example, the Oregon statute entitled, "Factors considered by board in granting parole," provides that good conduct and efficient performance of duties assigned in the state penitentiary (ORS 144.250) are to be considered by the board in granting parole. This bears on the length of incarceration. Should the court be required to advise a defendant of the terms of this statute? More to the point, in Oregon if the offense to which a defendant has plead guilty is not his first felony conviction, then he is in line to be proceeded against under the habitual criminal act for enhancement of his sentence. This would be a consequence that could directly affect the length of detention. Should it be the obligation of the court to attempt to `cover all the bases' and advise him of the possibility of the application of the habitual criminal act in his case?
We think the proper place to draw the line for which the court is responsible to a defendant on the advice of the basic consequences of his plea is with the information as to the maximum sentence which may be imposed. See also, Sali v. Warden, Nev., 482 P.2d 287 (1971), and Stocks v. Warden, 86 Nev. 758, 476 P.2d 469 (1970). We note that in the federal cases holding that parole ineligibility is not "a `consequence' of a plea of guilty" (Smith, Trujillo, Onick) writs of certiorari have been uniformly denied. This tends to support our conclusion that pleading guilty without being informed as to parole ineligibility raises no constitutional issues.
The judgment of the post-conviction court is reversed with instructions to dismiss the petition for post-conviction relief.
FORT, Judge (dissenting).
I am persuaded to the opposite view by the reasoning in the cases so holding set forth in the majority opinion.
