Sentencing – modification — new factors

Eric Lamar Johnson, pro se, appeals an order denying his motion for sentence modification. He argues: (1) that the circuit court misused its discretion when it sentenced him because it did not consider his rehabilitative needs; (2) that the circuit court should modify his sentence now, nine years after his conviction, because his rehabilitative needs are a “new factor”; and (3) that the circuit court erred in denying his postconviction motion without a hearing. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
