From: The District Court of the Eighth Judicial District. County of Cascade.
    STATE OF MONTANA, Plaintiff, vs. HARLIN WELLCOME, Defendant.
    Received at State Prison 10/11/67 — Grand Larceny.
    NO. 22
    DATED this 27th day of March, 1968.
   DECISION

The application of the above-named defendant for a review of the sentence of 10 years, imposed on October 10, 1967, was fully heard and after a careful consideration of the entire matter it is decided that:

(1) Change of sentence denied

The reason for the above decision is that this prisoner has acquired six felony convictions and has a long, long record of arrests in connection with other matters. It would appear that his present sentence was very moderate considering his past record. His adjustment at the prison appears to be excellent but the Board is of the opinion that his present sentence should not be reduced. He will be eligible for parole consideration in August of 1969.
