Re: sentencing info needed
There isn't an indeterminent sentence of 8-12. If you are facing 8 and you are being sentenced to a range you must get a high end of either 24 (for non PFO's or 16 for PFO's. If you are sentenced to a determinent sentence of 8 years you are facing a minimum of 6 years and just over 10 months.
