Description
1 Under Arizona law, those convicted of a crime are subject to longer sentences when certain aggravating factors are proved. We hold that a court may not, consistent with due process, increase a defendants maximum potential sentence based solely on a so-called "catch-all" aggravator, defined as "any other factors which the court may deem appropriate to the ends of justice." Ariz. Rev. Stat. ("A.R.S.") ร§ 13-702(D)(13) (Supp. 1991).
