Petition for Writ of Certiorari DENIED. EN BANC.

JUSTICE BOATRIGHT would grant as to the following issues:

Whether, under Rutter v. People, 2015 CO 71, a trial court conducting an abbreviated proportionality review of a habitual sentence must consider the General Assembly’s reclassification of some of a defendant’s prior felony convictions, where the triggering offense is grave and serious and has not been reclassified.

Whether a sixty-four year habitual sentence raises an inference of gross proportionality when the triggering offense is first degree assault with a deadly weapon, two of defendant’s five prior felony convictions would still be felonies if committed today, and at least one prior conviction is a grave and serious offense for proportionality purposes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COLORADO SUPREME COURT CASE ANNOUNCEMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No. 17SC636, Court of Appeals Case No. 13CA1749 Petitioner/Cross-Respondent: The People of the State of Colorado, v.
