(1) Suspend the sentence and place the offender on probation pursuant to Ohio R.C. 2951.02;
(2) Suspend the sentence pursuant to Ohio R.C. 2951.02 upon any terms that the court considers appropriate;
(3) Permit the offender to serve the offender's sentence in intermittent confinement, overnight, or on weekends, or both, or at any other time or times that will allow the offender to continue at the offender's occupation or care for the offender's family; or
(4) Require the offender to serve a portion of the offender's sentence, which may be served in intermittent confinement, and suspend the balance of the sentence pursuant to Ohio R.C. 2951.02 upon any terms that the court considers appropriate or suspend the balance of the sentence and place the offender on probation pursuant to Ohio R.C. 2951.02.
(b) At the time of sentencing and after sentencing, when a term of imprisonment is imposed for a violation of Section 636.17(a) or (c) involving a protection order issued or consent agreement approved pursuant to Section 636.17(b) or Ohio R.C. 3113.31, and when the court has reason to believe, based on an evaluation performed pursuant to Ohio R.C. 2919.271 or on the advice of a chemical dependency professional, that the offender is a drug dependent person, is in danger of becoming a drug dependent person, is an alcoholic, or is suffering from acute alcohol intoxication, as defined in Ohio R.C. 2935.33, the court may require the offender to serve a portion of the offender's sentence and suspend the balance of the sentence and place the offender on probation pursuant to Ohio R.C. 2951.02, with one of the conditions of probation being that the offender enter into an appropriate treatment program or facility and comply with the treatment prescribed at the program or facility. The court shall order a person to enter a particular program or facility under this subsection only if the court has received evidence that the program or facility has space available and that the treatment provided by the program or facility is appropriate. For purposes of this subsection, an appropriate treatment program or facility includes a program licensed by the Ohio Director of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services pursuant to Ohio R.C. 3793.11, a program certified by the Ohio Director of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services pursuant to Ohio R.C. 3793.06, a public or private hospital, the Veterans Administration or other agencies of the Federal Government, or private care or treatment rendered by a physician or a psychologist licensed in the State, a licensed independent social worker, a licensed professional clinical counselor or a certified chemical dependency counselor. For purposes of this subsection, the fact that an offender is a repeat offender, as defined in Section 698.01, shall not conclusively bar the offender from conditional probation under this subsection if the previous offenses for which the offender was imprisoned involved violations of Section 636.17(a) or (c) involving a protection order issued or consent agreement approved pursuant to Section 636.17(b) or Ohio R.C. 3113.31, or equivalent violations of substantially equivalent municipal ordinances, or violations of either of those sections had they been in effect at the time of the violations.
(c) At the time of sentencing and after sentencing, when a fine is imposed for a misdemeanor, the court may do either of the following:
(1) Suspend all or any portion of the fine, upon any conditions that the court imposes in the interests of justice and the correction and rehabilitation of the offender; or
(2) Permit payment of all or any portion of the fine in installments, or by any other method and in any time and on any terms that the court considers just, except that the maximum time permitted for payment shall not exceed two years.
