Sentencing — Truth in Sentencing

Donnelly Smith, pro se, appeals the circuit court’s order denying his motion to modify his sentence. He argues: (1) that he should have been sentenced to the maximum under the truth-in-sentencing II law, rather than the truth-in-sentencing I law, which provided for a higher maximum term; and (2) that the circuit court relied on inaccurate information in sentencing him because it erroneously believed that he had been convicted of rape in Illinois in 1976. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
