PER CURIAM.
On January 10, 1980, defendant pled guilty to first-degree criminal sexual conduct, MCL 750.520b; MSA 28.788(2), and carrying a firearm in the commission of a felony, MCL 750.227b; MSA 28.424(2). He was sentenced to 25 to 50 years imprisonment on the criminal sexual conduct charge and to an additional mandatory *64 two-year consecutive sentence on the felony-firearm count. Defendant appeals as of right.
Defendant's sentence was based on the facts elicited at the plea proceeding and a presentence report that had been prepared approximately four months before sentencing when defendant had been convicted by a jury on a separate charge of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. The trial court indicated that the earlier presentence report was "recent enough to be used", and the defense attorney concurred. Defendant now argues that it was improper to rely on the presentence report that had been prepared for the earlier offense. We agree.
By statute, a probation officer must prepare a presentence report for any person convicted of a felony. MCL 771.14; MSA 28.1144.[1] The officer is required to inquire into the "antecedents, character, and circumstances' of each person. The Supreme Court has recognized that accurate presentence reports enable sentencing judges to tailor sentences to the particular circumstances of the case as well as to the individual offender. People v Triplett, 407 Mich 510, 515; 287 NW2d 165 (1980), People v McFarlin, 389 Mich 557, 574; 208 NW2d 504 (1973). In addition, a report must be prepared even if the prosecutor, defendant and trial court agree that it need not be prepared. People v Brown, 393 Mich 174, 181; 224 NW2d 38 (1974).
The Department of Corrections has promulgated rules that require a probation officer to prepare a presentence report for any person charged with a felony. That report is required to include the following information at the least:
*65 "(a) An objective description of the offense, based on all the relevant information acquired by the probation agent during the presentence investigation.
"(b) The offender's description of the current offense and the circumstances surrounding it.
"(c) A full description of the prior criminal convictions and juvenile dispositions of the offender.
"(d) A description and status of all criminal charges pending against the offender at the time of the presentence investigation.
"(e) A personal profile of the offender * * *." 1977 AACS R 791.9910(1), quoted in People v Books, 95 Mich App 500, 504-505, fn 5; 291 NW2d 94 (1980). (Emphasis added.)
In the case at bar, the trial court elected to rely upon a presentence report that had been prepared four months earlier for another offense. As the presentence report was prepared for another conviction, it did not contain either an objective description of the offense or the offender's description of the current offense and the circumstances surrounding it. The sentence imposed, therefore, failed to meet the requirement that the sentence be tailored to the particular circumstances of the case.
We hold that relying on the presentence report for a prior conviction does not permit the sentencing judge to examine the particular circumstances of the case. Here, where the defendant pled guilty, the trial judge was clearly unaware of many of the details of the particular circumstances, so it was particularly important that she have the benefit of an updated presentence report.
In People v Perez, 103 Mich App 636; 303 NW2d 49 (1981), a panel of this Court remanded the cause for resentencing based on the sentencing court's failure to respond to defense counsel's indication that there were factual inaccuracies in the presentence report. Apparently defense counsel *66 informed the sentencing court that the factual allegations concerning the actual offense contained in the presentence report differed from both the defendant's version of what actually happened and the prosecutor's version of what actually happened. The dispute, therefore, was over how the actual offense was accomplished. In remanding to the trial court for consideration of the claimed inaccuracies, the Court noted that "the manner and circumstances under which an offense is committed may well influence the degree of the sentence imposed". Perez, supra, 638.
We believe the infirmity in the instant case is even more serious than that in Perez since, in this case, the report relied upon was completely devoid of the facts and circumstances surrounding the offense for which defendant was being sentenced. As in Perez, the inclusion of such information in the report would greatly aid the sentencing judge in reaching a fair and just sentencing determination.
Defendant also argues that an updated presentence report was needed where there was a nearly four-month gap between the preparation of the presentence report and the actual sentencing date. The Supreme Court has recently recognized that a reasonably updated presentence report is necessary in resentencing a defendant. People v Triplett, supra, 511. In reaching this decision, the Court noted that it was important to consider the defendant's conduct in prison, as that conduct would be likely to shed considerable light on the prospect of a defendant's rehabilitative potential. People v Triplett, supra, 516. We note that the sentencing judge in the instant case did not have the benefit of any information regarding the defendant's conduct in prison. Without reaching the *67 question of whether a four-month gap between the preparation of the original presentence report and sentencing comports with the reasonableness requirement of Triplett, we hold that a defendant is entitled to be sentenced on the basis of a presentence report that is prepared especially for the offense for which he is being sentenced. We observe that a different result was reached in People v Potts, 46 Mich App 538; 208 NW2d 583 (1973). We believe, however, that the Potts holding is inconsistent with the Supreme Court's recognition that a sentence must be tailored to the particular circumstances of the offense.
Remanded for preparation of a presentence report and resentencing.
We retain no futher jurisdiction.
