Board of Parole PER CURIAM Petitioner is an adult in custody who was sentenced as a dangerous offender to serve 300 months with a man- datory minimum of 75 months on multiple felony counts. Petitioner assigns error to the Board of Parole and Post- Prison Supervision’s (the board) order denying him release and deferring parole consideration for two years. He argues that the board applied improper standards to the deter- mination of whether he was eligible for release, and that the board’s determinations are unsupported by substantial evidence resulting in a final order that lacked substantial reason. The board argues that it applied the proper stan- dards to the release determination according to our prior decisions, and that its factual findings were based upon sub- stantial evidence in the record. We affirm. We review a board order “for legal error, substantial evidence, and substantial reason.” Bell v. Board of Parole, 283 Or App 711, 713, 391 P3d 907, rev den, 361 Or 645 (2017). First, we address petitioner’s argument that the board applied the wrong standard. When a person is sentenced as a dangerous offender, the trial court has made a finding that the person was suffering from a severe personality disorder that predis- posed them to commit crimes that seriously endangered the life or safety of another. We have previously determined, in a case not materially distinguishable from this one, that the test the board applied, including whether petitioner still suf- fered from a mental disorder that predisposed him to com- mit any crime, is appropriate. Guzek v. Board of Parole, 325 Or App 795, 804, 530 P3d 510, rev den, 371 Or 476 (2023). Similar to that case, we have considered the record, and determine that the board’s intermediate determinations that petitioner lacked remorse for the victims, failed to engage in mental health treatment, and resisted being supervised as a sex offender, are amply supported by evidence in the record, and petitioner’s own statements to the board—quoted in the board’s letter of deferral—reinforce our determination that the board considered the appropriate standard in denying release and deferring the next parole consideration hearing. We also find the psychologist’s finding that peti- tioner is currently suffering from antisocial personality Nonprecedential Memo Op: 341 Or App 211 (2025) 213 disorder to be adequately supported by a preponderance of evidence in the record, despite problems associated with the Personality Assessment Inventory test. The board’s duty at the parole consideration hearing is to determine whether petitioner has shown by a preponderance of the evidence that he is no longer dangerous at the time of the parole con- sideration hearing. Davis v. Board of Parole, 341 Or 442, 448, 144 P3d 931 (2006). Here, the board adequately con- nected its reasons for denial to evidence in the record, and it did not err.
