Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, David M. Porter, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., and Greer and Schumacher, JJ.  Opinion by Vaitheswaran, P.J. (3 pages)

            Terreon Shabazz appeals his sentence, claiming the district court erroneously used a fixed age-related policy and otherwise abused its discretion.  OPINION HOLDS: The district court did not apply a fixed age-related policy, as the court relied on Shabazz’s criminal history and failure to comply with community-based corrections in addition to this age.  The district court also did not abuse its discretion, as it relied on his criminal history, employment circumstances, and the nature of the offense.
