PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN,
UNPUBLISHED
July 25, 1997
Plaintiff-Appellee,
v
No. 191433
Ingham Circuit Court
LC No. 94-066988 FH
JEFFREY JOHN ADKINS,
Defendant-Appellant.
Before: Jansen, P.J., and Wahls and P.R. Joslyn*, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Defendant pleaded guilty to operating a motor vehicle with an unlawful blood alcohol level, third
offense, MCL 257.625(2) and (6); MSA 9.2325(2) and (6), and was sentenced to four years
probation. 1 He subsequently pleaded guilty to violating the terms of his probation and was sentenced to
thirty to sixty months imprisonment. Defendant appeals as of right. We affirm.
Defendant’s sentence does not violate the principle of proportionality, in light of his extensive
juvenile record, his repeated failure to take advantage of the rehabilitative opportunities offered him and
his conduct while on probation. People v Parrish, 216 Mich App 178, 185; 549 NW2d 32 (1996);
People v Kreger, 214 Mich App 549, 554; 543 NW2d 55 (1995).
Affirmed.
/s/ Kathleen Jansen
/s/ Myron H. Wahls
/s/ Patrick R. Joslyn

We note that the trial court lacked the authority to impose a sentence of probation. MCL 257.902;
MSA 9.2602.
