State v. Collier

Summary

The court held that, under the 1993 sentencing statute, the off-grid first-degree murder conviction was the primary crime for determining the supervision period when Collier was sentenced for consecutive off-grid and on-grid offenses. Accordingly, lifetime parole applied to the murder sentence, while the aggravated-robbery sentence required no separate postrelease-supervision term. The court also rejected Collier's mandate-rule and ex post facto arguments and affirmed the denial of his motion to correct an illegal sentence.
