Sentencing — consecutive sentences — discretion
Demetrice R. Wright appeals from judgments of conviction, entered upon his guilty pleas, on one count of second-degree recklessly endangering safety and two counts of possession of a firearm by a felon. Wright also appeals from portions of orders denying his postconviction motion for sentence modification. Wright complains that his “lengthy and consecutive” sentences constitute an erroneous exercise of the sentencing court’s discretion. We disagree and affirm the judgments and orders. This opinion shall not be published.
