Description

BRYNER, Chief Judge. OPINION Leonard L. Friedberg was convicted upon his plea of no contest to four counts of issuing a bad check in violation of AS 11.46.280. Each offense constitutes a class C felony, punishable by a maximum term of five years' imprisonment. Superior Court Judge Victor D. Carlson sentenced Friedberg to serve consecutive sentences totaling five years, of which three and one-half years were suspended. Friedberg appeals, challenging his sentences as excessive. We reject, at the outset, Friedberg's assertion that his sentence must be vacated because Judge Carlson failed to make an express finding of necessity as required by our ruling in Lacquement v. State, 644 P.2d 856, 862 (Alaska App. 1982), where first offense consecutive sentences are imposed and their total length exceeds the presumptive term specified for the single most serious offense.
