State of Wisconsin,

MOTION for reconsideration.  Reconsideration denied. 
 
¶1 
PER CURIAM.   Petitioner Vincent T. Grady moves this 
court for reconsideration of its opinion in State v. Grady, 2007 
WI 81, ___ Wis. 2d ___, 734 N.W.2d 364, issued June 29, 2007, 
for the limited purpose of clarifying the court's opinion to 
remove an alleged ambiguity about the effective date of parts of 
the opinion. 
¶2 
The motion for reconsideration is denied.  We decline 
to revise the language of the opinion.  However, having 
carefully 
considered 
the 
petitioner's 
request, 
the 
court 
restates its principal conclusions: 
No.  2005AP2424-CR 
 
2 
 
A. 
For sentencing occurring after September 1, 2007, 
a 
circuit 
court 
satisfies 
its 
Wis. Stat. § 973.017(2)(a) 
obligation 
when 
the 
record 
of 
the 
sentencing 
hearing 
demonstrates that the court actually considered the sentencing 
guidelines and so stated on the record.  Accordingly, when a 
circuit court's consideration of sentencing guidelines is 
reviewed, the reviewing court may not supplement the sentencing 
record with evidence outside the sentencing hearing for any 
sentencing occurring after September 1, 2007.  Whether a circuit 
court has met its § 973.017(2)(a) obligation in a sentencing 
after that date must be determined from the record of the 
sentencing hearing. 
 
B. 
The prospective application of the rule stated 
above does not affect other parts of the Grady opinion.  Thus, 
the opinion's affirmation of both the circuit court's duty under 
Wis. Stat. § 973.017(2)(a) to consider any applicable sentencing 
guidelines and appellate authority to review the circuit court's 
compliance 
with 
this 
statute, 
apply 
to 
all 
sentencing 
procedures, retroactively as well as prospectively.   
¶3 
Accordingly, the motion for reconsideration is denied.
