On November 2, 2006, the defendant’s application for review of that sentence was heard by the Sentence Review Division of the Montana Supreme Court.
The defendant was present and was represented by Mathew Stevenson. The state was represented by George Corn who appeared via videoconference.
Before hearing the application, counsel for the defendant advised the Sentence Review Division that he recently received the sentencing transcripts and requires additional time to prepare for the sentence review hearing.
Therefore, it is the unanimous decision of the Sentence Review Division that the application for review of sentence shall be continued to the next available hearings in 2007. This will be the final continuance granted in this matter.
Done in open Court this 2nd day of November, 2006.
Chairperson, Hon. John Whelan, Member, Hon. Randal I. Spaulding and Alt. Member, Hon. Kurt Krueger.
