Description
Appellant challenges the consecutive sentences imposed on five convictions of violation of a restraining order, arguing that the district court improperly departed from the sentencing guidelines without stating a reason for the departure. Appellant also argues that imposition of consecutive sentencing without a jury determination of the existence of aggravating factors violated the Sixth Amendment right to a jury trial under Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531 (2004). We reverse the sentence and remand for imposition of the presumptive guidelines sentence.
