Defendant appeals as of right his conviction of possession with intent to deliver less than fifty grams of cocaine, MCL 333.7401(2)(a)(iv); *175 MSA 14.15(7401)(2)(a)(iv), and his sentence of five to twenty years of imprisonment. 1 We affirm.
Defendant’s conviction was the result of an unconditional guilty plea entered pursuant to an agreement whereby an enhancement count under MCL 333.7413; MSA 14.15(7413), based on defendant’s earlier conviction of possession of drugs, was dismissed. Defendant’s appeal does not rest upon a claim that he was denied effective assistance of counsel at his plea hearing or that his plea was not accurate, or was made involuntarily or without understanding. See
In re Oakland Co Prosecutor,
Issues that relate solely to the state’s capacity to prove factual guilt are waived by an unconditional guilty plea.
People v New,
Defendant also contends that the trial court impermissibly assessed points under two prior record variables that overlap, thereby unfairly scoring twice for the same prior conviction. We disagree. The trial court assessed ten points under Prior Record Variable (prv) 2 for one prior low-severity felony conviction of possession with intent to deliver cocaine. Defendant was also assessed points under prv 6 on the basis of his postconviction relationship to the justice system. Because defendant was on parole status, arising from the earlier conviction, at the time of the present offense, he was assessed fifteen points. Contrary to the dicta in
People v Williams,
Prv 2 and prv 6 are presented in the guidelines as two separate categories addressing two different situations. Prv 2 provides for the assessment of points for every prior low-severity felony conviction, with an increase in the number of points in correlation to the number of such convictions. Prv 6 provides for the assessment of points if, at the time of the instant offense, the defendant had a relationship with the criminal justice system in *177 volving bail, bond, pretrial diversion, or the Holmes Youthful Trainee Act. Additional points are to be assessed under prv 6 when there is a "post-conviction relationship,” such as being on probation or parole when the instant offense was committed, or when the instant offense occurred within six months of termination of probation or parole.
Each variable is directed toward a different purpose. Prv 2 provides for points for each prior conviction. Prv 6 provides for points when the instant offense is committed while the defendant is subject to the criminal justice system. The former is concerned with the number of the defendant’s prior convictions, the latter with the defendant’s status in relation to the criminal justice system when the instant offense occurred. The trial court’s assessment of points for both variables was proper.
Finally, we reject defendant’s contention that the trial court abused its discretion in imposing a minimum sentence of five years of imprisonment. Having reviewed the record, we conclude that the sentence, which was within the guidelines, was proportionate, given defendant’s background and the nature of the offense.
People v Milbourn,
Affirmed.
Notes
Defendant preserved his issues for appeal when, on remand pursuant to the order of this Court entered on April 30, 1993, Docket No. 142782, he moved to withdraw his plea on the basis of his claim of ineffective assistance of counsel, or for resentencing because of improper scoring. Following a hearing on remand, the trial court denied defendant’s motion.
Even if defendant had not waived the claim of ineffective assistance of counsel by his valid, unconditional guilty plea, it is without merit. We have reviewed the record on remand and agree with the trial court that defendant was not denied effective assistance of counsel.
