and Act 45 of 2002 are expressly applicable retroactively to

inmates who committed crimes, who were convicted, or who were

sentenced under certain enumerated provisions prior to June 15,
2001. See La. R. S. 15: 308; State v. Jarvis, 2020- 00877 ( La.

1/ 12/ 21), 308 So. 3d 290, 291 ( per curiam). Relator committed

the instant offense in 2009, and therefore, is not entitled to

the requested relief. Accordingly, the district court did not

err by denying relator' s motion to correct an illegal sentence.
