The Court held the judge's starting point of 16 years for approximately 481.63g of methamphetamine was appropriate within the tariff, the one-third reduction for the guilty plea was correctly applied yielding an 11-year sentence, and financial pressure is not a mitigating factor sufficient to reduce an otherwise appropriate sentence; therefore the application for leave to appeal was dismissed.
