¶3The defendant was present and was advised of his right to be represented by counsel. The defendant proceeded pro se. The state was not represented.

¶4Before hearing the application, the defendant was advised that the Sentence Review Division has the authority not only to reduce the sentence or affirm it, but also increase it. The defendant was further advised that there is no appeal from a decision of the Sentence Review Division. The defendant acknowledged that he understood this and stated that he wished to proceed.

¶5It is the unanimous decision of the Sentence Review Division that the application for review of sentence shall be continued to the November meeting of the Board, pending Judge Henson's ruling on defendant's recent motion requesting treatment in a community setting.
