COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Beales, Fulton and Ortiz UNPUBLISHED ANTONIO OSORIO, SOMETIMES KNOWN AS ANTONIO OSORIO-PACHECO MEMORANDUM OPINION* v. Record No. 0126-22-3 PER CURIAM SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF ROCKINGHAM COUNTY Bruce D. Albertson, Judge (Richard G. Morgan, on brief), for appellant. Appellant submitting on brief. (Jason S. Miyares, Attorney General; Ken J. Baldassari, Assistant Attorney General, on brief), for appellee. Antonio Osorio appeals from the decision of the Circuit Court of Rockingham County revoking the entirety of his previously suspended sentence. Osorio contends that the trial court abused its discretion when it “substantially departed from the [s]entencing [g]uidelines and revoked the remaining [t]welve (12) years of [his] previously-suspended sentence.” After examining the briefs and record in this case, the panel unanimously holds that oral argument is unnecessary because “the appeal is wholly without merit.” Code § 17.1-403(ii)(a); Rule 5A:27(a).
