McKUSICK, Chief Justice.
In a jury trial in Superior Court (Penob-scot County) defendant Robert Farnham was convicted of gross sexual misconduct, Class A, 17-A M.R.S.A. § 253 (1983 & Supp. 1983-1984) and sexual abuse of a minor, Class D, 17-A M.R.S.A. § 254 (1983), and sentenced to seven years in Maine State Prison.1 In his appeal he attacks only that seven-year prison sentence, arguing that the presiding justice took an improper factor into consideration in imposing sentence. Finding no error in the sentencing proceeding, we affirm.
