Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Linn County, Nicholas Scott, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., Badding, J., and Vogel, S.J. Opinion by Vogel, S.J. (5 pages)
A defendant appeals his sentence, alleging the district court failed to adequately state on the record the basis for the sentence imposed. OPINION HOLDS: Under our supreme court precedent, succinct sentencing explanations satisfy Iowa Rule of Criminal Procedure 2.23(2)(g). Because we find the sentencing court’s explanation sufficient under this permissive standard, we affirm.
