                 recommended by the Division of Parole and Probation, we conclude that
                 his claim is without merit because a district court does not abuse its
                 discretion by imposing a sentence in excess of that suggested by the
                 Division. See Collins v. State, 88 Nev. 168, 171, 494 P.2d 956, 957 (1972).
                               Having concluded that Johnson is not entitled to relief, we
                               ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
