PER CURIAM Remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.

Cite as 304 Or App 540 (2020) 541 PER CURIAM Defendant, who pleaded guilty to second-degree criminal trespass, ORS 164.245, asserts on appeal that the trial court erred in imposing $1,707 in restitution. To sup- port an award of restitution, the state must produce suffi- cient evidence of (1) criminal activities, (2) economic dam- ages, and (3) a causal relationship between the two. State v. Kirkland, 268 Or App 420, 424, 342 P3d 163 (2015). A defendant cannot be required to pay restitution for economic damages arising out of criminal activity for which she was not convicted or which she did not admit to having commit- ted. State v. Dorsey, 259 Or App 441, 445-46, 314 P3d 331 (2013). In the present case, the state concedes that defen- dant made no such admission and that the conviction for second-degree criminal trespass did not allow for the dam- ages for which the restitution was awarded. We agree and accept the state’s concession.

Remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
