Calculating Criminal History Weight
The final piece to sentencing calculations takes into consideration criminal history. Everything from misdemeanor driving crimes (like driving with a suspended license) to prior major felonies, the PSI/R considers the entirety of a defendant’s criminal history.

With no criminal history at all, zero points are assigned. Every other instance of past criminality is scored in the following categories:

Juvenile Adjudication(s);
Adult Criminal Conviction(s);
Other Minor Conviction(s);
Then the totality of a defendant’s criminal history is scored with the points assigned by each entry in the above categories.

Three points are added for each prior convictions that carried an actual sentence more than 1 year and 1 day;
Two points are added for each prior conviction carrying an actual sentence of at least 60 days of detention;
One point is added for each prior sentence for a criminal conviction that didn’t qualify for the first two (e.g. criminal sentences with only probation or less than 60 days of detention);
Two points are added if the current charge occurred while the defendant was under any current sentence for another criminal case;
One point is added for each prior violent crimes that weren’t scored in the above categories (usually because they were combined sentences).

Criminal History Category
Now that we know how criminal history is scored, the second part to this calculation is what category each score falls into. There are six categories, and each one carries longer sentences than the last.

Refer back to the sentencing table found in the Guidelines Manual for a visual representation of what this category does to sentences.

Category I: 0-1 criminal history points. This is the lowest category;
Category II: 2-3 criminal history points;
Category III: 4-6 criminal history points;
Category IV: 7-9 criminal history points;
Category V: 10-12 criminal history points;
Category VI: 13 or more criminal history points;
