- downandout 12y agoI'm well aware of how it works....I didn't say that points=years. First, 36 points (the amount he will likely have - 30+6) gives him a recommended range (if he has no criminal history) of 188-235 months. I only said that he is off the charts in terms of loss. Second, guidelines are exactly that - guidelines. A judge could easily look at his conduct and say "this is the most I've ever seen for an intended loss; therefore the statutory maximum (40 years) is warranted".
