State v. Webb

Criminal No. 970381

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Michael Webb appealed from the Criminal Judgment and Commitment of the Morton County District Court which was entered upon a plea of guilty for the crime of Conspiracy to Deliver a Controlled Substance (Methamphetamine), a class B felony, in violation of sections 12.1-06-04 and 19-03.1-23, N.D.C.C.  Webb argues the district court abused its discretion in sentencing him to a term of imprisonment of eight years.  The sentence is affirmed under N.D. R. App. P. 35.1(a)(4).   See State v. Steinbach , 1998 ND 18, ¶24, 575 N.W.2d 193 (stating supreme court has no power to review sentence within statutory limits and a sentence within statutory limits will not be set aside unless district court substantially relied on an impermissible factor or factors).
