    Defendant was charged with criminal trespass, a Class A misdemeanor, in violation of ORS 164.255. *488lie pled guilty and was sentenced to the maximum punishment provided by ORS 161.615 and 161.635, i.e., one year in the county jail and $1,000 fine.

    He appeals contending that the sentence is in excess of that provided by law.
