Pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant, a juvenile, pleaded guilty to armed robbery, MCL 750.529; MSA 28.797, and was sentenced as an adult to eight to fifteen years’ imprisonment. He appeals as of right. We affirm. This case has been decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(A). The trial court’s factual findings on the factors enumerated in MCL 769.1(3); MSA 28.1072(3) were not clearly erroneous. MCR 2.613(C). The findings were supported by the evidence. Moreover, the ultimate decision to sentence defendant as an adult was not an abuse of the trial court’s discretion. People v Launsburry, 217 Mich App 358; 551 NW2d 460 (1996). Finally, defendant’s sentence is proportionate to the seriousness of the circumstances surrounding the offense and the offender.
