Looper (Dujuan) v. State ( 2014 )


Menu:
  •                     suspect evidence or was improperly influenced by emotion. Looper's
    consecutive prison terms of 96-240 months, 19-60 months, and 19-72
    months, fall within the parameters provided by the relevant statutes, NRS
    193.330(1)(a)(1); NRS 200.366(3)(c); NRS 200.485(2); NRS 200.730(1), and
    Looper has not demonstrated that these statutes are unconstitutional.    See
    Chavez v. State, 
    125 Nev. 328
    , 347-48, 
    213 P.3d 476
    , 489-90 (2009). The
    sentence imposed is not so disproportionate to the gravity of the offenses
    as to shock the conscience, see CuIverson v. State, 
    95 Nev. 433
    , 435, 
    596 P.2d 220
    , 221-22 (1979); see also Harmelin v. Michigan, 
    501 U.S. 957
    ,
    1000-01 (1991) (plurality opinion). We conclude that the district court did
    not abuse its discretion, see Parrish v. State, 
    116 Nev. 982
    , 988-89, 
    12 P.3d 953
    , 957 (2000), and we
    ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.'

    1 Looper's fast track statement does not comply with the formatting
    requirements of NRAP 3C(h)(1) and NRAP 32(a)(4)-(5) because it does not
    have one-inch margins on all sides and contains a footnote which is not in
    the same size font as the text of the brief. We caution counsel that future
    failure to comply with the applicable rules when filing briefs in this court
    may result in the imposition of sanctions. See NRAP 3C(n).
