The court dismissed the defendant's appeal regarding excessive sentencing, upholding the original conviction for child support fraud. The defense argued the sentence was disproportionately harsh, but the court found no evidence of such disproportionality. Consequently, the defendant was ordered to bear the appeal costs, though the state ultimately paid them due to the defendant's incarceration.
