Description
Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, Robert Geier pled guilty and was convicted on three counts of omitting material facts in the sale of securities. The district court denied Geier's request for a withheld judgment. Instead, the court entered a judgment of conviction and sentenced Geier to a suspended three-year term with nine years of probation. As conditions of probation, the court ordered Geier to make $42,000 in restitution to the defrauded investors, and to perform 2,500 hours of community service. On appeal, Geier contends the district court abused its discretion by not granting a withheld judgment and by imposing an unreasonable sentence. We affirm. Geier was charged with sixty-three violations of the Idaho Securities Act. More specifically, he was charged with omitting material facts in the sale of securities, failing to register as a security salesman, and failing to register securities for sale in each transaction which involved the twenty-one investors who were defrauded. I.C. §§ 30-1403, -1406, -1416. Geier agreed to plead guilty to three counts and, in exchange, the state dismissed the remaining charges. The state did not oppose a withheld judgment and recommended that Geier be placed on probation for nine years, pay $42,000 in restitution, and perform 2,500 hours of community service.
