No. 43622- 1 - 11
UNPUBLISHED OPINION
Chhantarn Real appeals the trial court' s sentence following his guilty plea for two counts
of first degree attempted robbery and two counts of second degree assault. The State concedes
that Real' s sentence exceeds the statutory maximum. We accept the State' s concession, reverse
the trial court' s sentence, and remand for imposition of a proper sentence that does not exceed
120 months.
In addition to confinement, the trial court may sentence a defendant to community
custody for 18 months for a non -serious violent offense. RCW 9. 94A.701. The length of the
combined confinement and community custody sentences, however, cannot exceed the statutory
maximum. State v. Boyd, 174 Wn.2d 470, 473, 275 P. 3d 321 ( 2012); RCW 9. 94A.701( 9). For
an individual with Real' s offender score, the statutory maximum sentence for attempted robbery,
a class B felony, is 120 months. RCW 9A.20. 021( 1)( b); RCW 9A.56. 200( 2); RCW
9A.28. 020( 3)( b). Following Real' s plea, the trial court sentenced him to 120 months of
confinement and 18 months of community custody, totaling 138 months.' When a defendant' s
sentence exceeds the statutory maximum, the trial court is required to reduce the term of
The trial court sentenced Real to 120 months of confinement for each count of attempted
robbery and 84 months of confinement for each count of assault with time for all counts to run
concurrently.

Wn.2d at 473.
We accept the State' s concession, reverse the trial court' s sentence, and remand for
imposition of a proper sentence that does not exceed 120 months.
A majority of the panel having determined that this opinion will not be printed in the
Washington Appellate Reports, but will be filed for public record pursuant to RCW 2. 06. 040, it
is so ordered.
We concur:
