Count II: Ten (10) years in the Montana Women’s Prison, to run consecutively with Charge I, Count I, for the offense of Theft by Embezzlement, a felony: and Charge II: Ten (10) years in the Montana Women’s Prison, all suspended, to run concurrently with Charge I, Count I, for the offense of Forgery, a felony.
¶2On October 8,2010, the defendant’s application for review of that sentence was heard by the Sentence Review Division of the Montana Supreme Court.
¶3The defendant was present and was represented by Richard Phillips. The state was represented by Bill Fulbright, who appeared via videoconference.
¶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 *78acknowledged that she understood this and stated that she wished to proceed.
¶5Rule 17 of the Rules of the Sentence Review Division of the Supreme Court of Montana provides that “the sentence imposed by the District Court is presumed correct, and the sentence will not be reduced or increased unless it is deemed clearly inadequate or excessive.” (§46-18-904(3), MCA).
¶6The Division finds that the reasons advanced for modification are insufficient to hold that the sentence imposed by the District Court is inadequate or excessive.
¶7Therefore, it is the unanimous decision of the Sentence Review Division that the sentence shall be affirmed.
