Sentencing — ineffective assistance — accurate information

Joelle Borowitz appeals a judgment, entered upon her no contest pleas, convicting her of first-degree reckless injury with use of a dangerous weapon, and felony intimidation of a witness, both counts as party to a crime. Borowitz also challenges the order denying her postconviction motion for resentencing. Borowitz claims: (1) the circuit court erroneously exercised its sentencing discretion; (2) she was denied the effective assistance of trial counsel at sentencing; and (3) she was sentenced on the basis of inaccurate information. We reject these arguments and affirm the judgment and order. This opinion will not be published.
