                            COURT OF APPEALS



PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN,                                      UNPUBLISHED
                                                                      October 22, 2019
               Plaintiff-Appellee,

v                                                                     No. 345221
                                                                      Gladwin Circuit Court
JOHN RAY HILBERATH,                                                   LC No. 17-009216-FH

               Defendant-Appellant.


Before: MARKEY, P.J., and BORRELLO and BOONSTRA, JJ.

BOONSTRA, J. (concurring).

        I concur fully with the majority opinion. However, in light of the fact that the sentencing
guidelines are now advisory (although still relevant to a trial court’s sentencing determination), I
write separately to state that I continue to believe it to be more accurate to refer to the challenged
sentence as an “out of guidelines sentence” because the framework for reviewing such sentences
post-People v Lockridge, 498 Mich 358, 365; 870 NW2d 502 (2015), differs significantly from
that which existed when the sentencing guidelines were mandatory. See People v Lampe, 327
Mich App 104, 133-135; ___ NW2d ___ (2019) (BOONSTRA, J., concurring); see also People v
Odom, 327 Mich App 297, ___; ___ NW2d ___ (2019) (referring to the defendant’s sentence as
an “out-of-guidelines sentence”).



                                                              /s/ Mark T. Boonstra
