Court of Appeals of Washington, Division 3.

Publication Ordered July 28, 2011.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James Patrick Hagarty , Kevin Gregory Eilmes , Prosecuting Attorney's Office, Yakima, WA, for Appellant.

Janet G. Gemberling , Gemberling & Dooris PS, Spokane, WA, for Respondent.


KULIK, C.J.

¶ 1 The State appeals the decision of the trial court to sentence Noel Garcia to an exceptional sentence below the standard sentence range. The State alleges that the mitigating factors found by the trial court in Mr. Garcia's sentencing were not substantial and compelling and that the sentence was too lenient and, therefore, improper under RCW 9.94A.585(4)(b). We disagree and, therefore, affirm the exceptional sentence.
