Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Cerro Gordo County, Karen Kaufman Salic, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Schumacher, P.J., Ahlers, J., and Vogel, S.J. Opinion by Vogel, S.J. (9 pages)
Amber Movick appeals the sentence imposed upon her conviction for possession of methamphetamine, third offense. She argues (1) the State breached the plea agreement by failing to endorse the agreed-upon sentencing recommendation, and (2) the district court erred by not ordering an updated presentence investigation report (PSI) or ensuring she waived her right to its use in sentencing. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm, concluding the prosecutor did not breach the plea agreement and Movick failed to preserve error on her claims about the PSI.
