State v. Moreland
Nos. 20160267 & 20160268
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Andrew Moreland appealed a district court’s order denying his request to correct an illegal sentence. Moreland argues it is an illegal sentence for the district court to sentence him to the maximum period of incarceration for one offense and then to subsequently place him on probation on a second offense. Because each of Moreland’s sentences were within the statutory limits imposed by N.D.C.C. § 12.1-
32-01, the district court did not abuse its discretion. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(4).
