STATE v. DORSEY

No. CR95-1084.

672 So.2d 188 (1996)

STATE of Louisiana, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Alfred DORSEY, Jr., Defendant-Appellant.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

March 20, 1996.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Janet M. Perrodin, Asst. Dist. Atty., Michael Harson, Lafayette, for State.

G. Paul Marx, Lafayette, for Alfred Dorsey Jr.

Before KNOLL, THIBODEAUX and WOODARD, JJ.


THIBODEAUX, Judge.

Alfred Dorsey, Jr. pled guilty on May 14, 1991, to issuing numerous worthless checks exceeding $500.00. He was sentenced to six years at hard labor on May 11, 1995. His motion to reconsider his sentence was denied. He now appeals his sentence on the basis that the four-year delay in sentencing him renders his sentence unreasonable and illegal.

We disagree with the defendant's contention and affirm his sentence.
