STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, UNPUBLISHED June 20, 1997 Plaintiff-Appellee, v No. 191170 Grand Traverse Circuit Court LC No. 95-6743 FH ANTHONY EUGENE MORGAN, Defendant-Appellant. Before: Saad, P.J., and Hood and McDonald, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Defendant pled guilty to use of cocaine in violation of MCL 333.7404(2)(a). By plea bargain, defendant was permitted to plead guilty to a misdemeanor involving possession of cocaine instead of a felony based on delivery. Defendant had a record of 24 prior misdemeanors, several involving violence. In light of the foregoing, we find that a two-year-probationary sentence, with the first 8 months to be spent in the county jail, does not represent an abuse of the trial court’s sentencing discretion, nor is it disproportionate to the offense or the offender. People v Houston, 448 Mich 312; 532 NW2d 508 (1995). Affirmed. /s/ Henry William Saad /s/ Harold Hood /s/ Gary R. McDonald -1
