GENOVESE, Judge.

In this companion criminal case with State v. Monceaux, 12-599 (La.App. 3

Cir. ---/---/12), --- So.3d ---, Defendant, Wilcy Ernest Monceaux, Sr., pled guilty to

the offense of false imprisonment with a dangerous weapon in violation of La.R.S.

14:46.1. In accordance with his plea agreement, Defendant was sentenced to five

years at hard labor, suspended, and placed on supervised probation for five years,

to run consecutively to the twenty-year hard labor sentence he received by virtue of

his plea to attempted manslaughter under Docket No. 12-599 of this court.

Defendant has appealed and has presented the identical assignment of error

and issue (excessive sentence) as he did under Docket No. 12-599 of this court.

Defendant’s brief in this matter is identical to his brief regarding the other

sentence, and it does not raise any error regarding his false imprisonment plea and

sentence. After reviewing the record, we find no errors patent.

For the reasons set forth herein and in State v. Monceaux, 12-599 (La.App. 3

Cir. ---/---/12), --- So.3d ---, Defendant’s sentence for false imprisonment with a

dangerous weapon is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
