ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE

This is an appeal from a judgment of conviction entered pursuant to a guilty plea of burglary and grand larceny of a motor vehicle. First Judicial District Court, Carson City; James E. Wilson, Judge.

Appellant Paul Allen Jennings contends that “[t]he State breached the guilty plea agreement to not oppose concurrent sentences by advocating for the maximum sentence on both counts.” Jennings did not object to the prosecutor's sentencing arguments; therefore, we review for plain error. See Puckett v. United States, 556 U.S. ––––, ––––, 129 S.Ct. 1423, 1428–29 (2009) ; Sullivan v. State, 115 Nev. 383, 387–88 n. 3, 990 P.2d 1258, 1260–61 n. 3 (1999). Because our review of the record reveals that the prosecutor followed the terms of the guilty plea agreement and did not explicitly or implicitly seek consecutive sentences, we conclude that there was no error, see Sullivan, 115 Nev. at 389, 990 P.2d at 1262, and we

ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
