Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Henry County, Wyatt Peterson, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Ahlers, P.J., and Badding and Chicchelly, JJ.  Opinion by Ahlers, P.J. (5 pages)

            Renee Kimbrough appeals following her guilty plea.  She claims the State breached the plea agreement with its sentencing recommendation and the district court abused its discretion when it sentenced her to incarceration.  OPINION HOLDS: The State did not breach the plea agreement because the agreement permitted the parties to “argue sentencing” and did not contain a required sentencing recommendation.  The court did not abuse its discretion in fashioning its sentence.
