PER CURIAM Portion of judgment requiring defendant to pay attorney fees reversed; otherwise affirmed.

Cite as 317 Or App 652 (2022) 653 PER CURIAM In this criminal appeal, defendant assigns error to the trial court’s refusal to give his requested less-satisfactory- evidence jury instruction. We reject that assignment of error. Defendant also assigns plain error to the trial court’s imposition of court-appointed attorney fees, arguing that the record lacked evidence to support a finding that he has the ability to pay attorney fees. The state concedes the error; we accept the concession. We also exercise our discretion to correct the error because, under the circumstances here, it is worth correcting given the seriousness of the error.
