OPINION
This is an appeal from a sentence of ten years imposed by the trial court upon appellant’s plea of guilty to the crime of robbery. 1
Apрellant argues that he was prejudiced because the presentenсe report introduced below referred to appellant’s previоus police contacts and included a copy of an FBI “rap sheеt” which noted his previous arrests but not their ultimate disposition, and *107 because the report concluded that appellant had either been “extremеly fortunate or innocent” in avoiding more convictions. 2 Appellant also claims prejudice because the report alludes to derogatоry information of an unspecified nature obtained from the Anchorage Police Department. Appellant’s counsel made no objection tо the contents of the presentence report. 3 Finally, appellаnt argues that the sentence imposed was excessive.
In two cases prior to this sentencing 4 and one since 5 we have stated that a recital of a history of police contacts without further explanation is improper and should not be considered by the trial judge. We adhеre to this position but hold that because of the special circumstanсes present in this case resentencing is not required. 6
At oral argument before this court counsel for both parties agreed that the record on appeal erroneously failed to disclose that the trial judge was aware of the disposition of the police contacts listed on the “rap sheet”. Although the district attorney and public.defender disagree as to whether sеveral of the dispositions should be characterized as convictions оr probation revocations, we think the trial judge’s awareness of the results оf the various police contacts removes the spectre of рrejudicial error. 7
With regard to the reference to derogatory informаtion, unless plain error has occurred we will not consider alleged errоrs in the presentence report in the absence of an objectiоn by the defendant at or before the sentencing hearing. No objection tо information contained in the report was made and thus we find any error waived. 8
Finally, the sentence imposed herein is within the zone of reasonablenеss 9 referred to in Waters v. State 10 and Meyers v. State 11 and thus is hereby affirmed.
Notes
. Appellant was the driver of a car which transported the actual rоbber.
. These comments of the author of the presentence repоrt were not mentioned by the sentencing judge or defense counsel, but were mentioned and discounted in passing by the district attorney. Such comments clearly аdd little to the report and are out of place therein. See Crim. R. 32(c) (2).
. The attorneys presenting the appeal did not participate in the sentencing in the trial court.
. Waters v. State,
. Peterson v. State,
. Because of our previous express statements on the impropriety of references to police contacts in presentence reports, the introduction of the “rap sheets” below raises the possibility of plain error. We decline to rule that appellant’s failure to object at the hearing precludes consideration of the mattеr on appeal.
. In order to avoid any possibility of mistake becausе of disagreement over appellant’s criminal history, we specifically authorize an extension of fifteen days from the date of entry of the mandate herein for the filing of a motion for reduction, correction or suspension of sentence under Orim.R. 35(a).
