Sentencing – discretion — undue harshness

Britton D. McKenzie, pro se, argues in effect that the circuit court erroneously exercised its sentencing discretion in imposing an excessive or unduly harsh sentence. While McKenzie appears to intend to make several arguments on appeal, I am limited by a prior order of this court to the argument that the sentence is excessive or unduly harsh given McKenzie’s health problems. For the following reasons, I reject this argument, and accordingly affirm. This opinion will not be published.
