He was sent to jail for eight months, but former AMA board chairman Dal Smilie is already out.

Smilie was sentenced for embezzling $108,000 from the American Motorcyclist Association through phoney expense receipts over a two-year period when he was on the AMA’s board of directors.

He was let out after only six weeks, with the agreement of the prosecutor, but he faces a two-year community control program, and besides that, his licence to practise law in Montana is under review.

    Two things -1st they have laws in Montana?
