Appellate court allowed the sentence appeal in part because the trial judge, while adopting an 18‑month starting point and reducing for guilty plea and assistance to 10 months, did not sufficiently account for the appellant's lack of prior convictions; the court awarded further mitigation on that basis and substituted a sentence of 9 months 15 days (approximately a 47% reduction from the 18‑month baseline).
