Re: criminal sentencing

You should contact your lawyer to see whether he or she can file a Motion to review and correct the sentencing if there was an error.

Re: criminal sentencing

In order to sentence you as a class x offender, they must allege in the indicment or information that you have 2 prior class 2 (or higher class) convictions or better. They must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. However, you plead guilty. that may change everything. Please call for an appointment.
