PER CURIAM
Defendant appeals from a conviction for driving while his operator’s license was suspended. The court ruled that he could not rely on a defense of lack of notice of the suspension under ORS 811.180. The state concedes that the court erred. We agree.
Reversed and remanded for a new trial.
