Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Washington County, Michael Schilling, Judge.  AFFIRMED IN PART, VACATED IN PART, AND DREMANDED.  Considered by Bower, C.J., and Ahlers and Chicchelly, JJ.  Opinion by Chicchelly, J. (6 pages)

            Kevin Orris appeals from the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to six counts of incest of a dependent adult, a class D felony in violation of Iowa Code sections 726.2, 235B.2(4), 692A.102(1)(b)(17), and 903B.2 (2021).  Orris contends the district court abused its sentencing discretion and committed error that should invalidate his sentence.  OPINION HOLDS: Finding error in the court’s instruction to complete sex-offender treatment, we vacate only that portion of the order and affirm the remaining sentence.
