    From: The District Court of the First Judicial District. County of Lewis and Clark.
    STATE OF MONTANA, Plaintiff, vs. LARRY ALAN ROATH, Defendant.
    Received at State Prison 9/16/66 — Robbery—15 years.
    NO. 2
    DATED this 27th day of March, 1968.
   DECISION

The application of the above-named defendant for a review of the sentence of 15 years, imposed on September 14, 1966, was fully heard and after a careful consideration of the entire matter it is decided that:

(1) The sentence be reduced to 10 years.

The reason for the above decision is that with only a minor past arrest record and no prior felony convictions, the prisoner was given a sentence of 15 years for robbery, or about 5 years in excess of the sentence usually imposed under the circumstances. Additionally, the prisoner has an outstanding record of improvement in the institution with attitude, habits and general conduct all considered good.
