Checklist
- The lawyer identifies the table item by the section number, not by the words in brackets.
- Record the period as a guidepost. Do not treat it as the sentence, and do not ignore other sentencing factors.
- If the non-parole period will differ from the standard period, note that reasons must identify each factor and need not quantify the difference in seriousness.
