State v. Poulos, 230 Mont. 11 (Mont. 1987)
Davis, Harkin, Honzel, Review

State v. Poulos

Opinion of the Court

DECISION

The application of the above-named defendant for a review of the sentence of 5 years for Custodial Interference plus credit for time served, imposed on August 25, 1986, was fully heard and after a careful consideration of the entire matter it is decided that: the sentence shall be amended to one (1) year in the Montana State Prison for Custodial Interference plus credit for time served.

Reasons for the Amendment are:

(1) The sentence imposed by sentencing judge is disproportionate to what the Co-Defendant received.

(2) This Court felt it should have been a County Jail Sentence in the first place.

We wish to thank Les Ocks of the Montana Defender Project for his assistance to the Defendant and to this Court.
