Syllabus

SENTENCING – COUNSEL – COURT COSTS – JAIL-TIME CREDIT: Where no sentencing findings were required, and all sentences imposed fell within the applicable statutory ranges and were not contrary to law, and where the trial court stated on the record that it had considered the relevant sentencing factors, the trial court did not err in the imposition of sentence. Trial counsel could not be considered ineffective for failing to make a motion to waive the imposition of court costs at sentencing where defendant failed to demonstrate a reasonable probability that the trial court would have granted such a motion had it been made. Where the judgment entry reflected that defendant had been awarded two days of jail-time credit, but at the sentencing hearing the trial court had actually awarded defendant 52 days of jail-time credit, the entry contained a clerical error that must be corrected nunc pro tunc.
