COUNSEL FOR DEFENDANT/APPELLANT:
Robert Milton Robinson

PETERS, J.

The State of Louisiana (state) charged the defendant, Robert Milton Robinson,

by bill of information with possession of cocaine, in violation of La.R.S. 40:967. The

defendant initially pled not guilty to the offense, but subsequently withdrew his

former plea and entered a plea of guilty to the charge. Thereafter, the trial court

sentenced him to serve four years at hard labor. The defendant then perfected this

appeal, asserting in his one assignment of error that the sentence imposed was

excessive.

The defendant did not object at sentencing and did not file a motion to

reconsider the sentence imposed. Failure to object and failure to timely file a motion

to reconsider the sentence imposed precludes review of the sentence on appeal. State

v. Bamburg, 00-675 (La.App. 3 Cir. 11/2/00), 772 So.2d 356. See also State v.

Williams, 01-998 (La.App. 3 Cir. 2/6/02), 815 So.2d 908, writ denied, 02-578 (La.

1/31/03), 836 So.2d 59. Thus, we find that the defendant has waived his right to seek

review of his sentence.

DISPOSITION

We affirm the defendant’s sentence in all respects.

AFFIRMED.
