P. v. Salmon
The defendants make nine assertions of error: (1) Leites attorney had a conflict of interest, (2) the evidence of Leites guilt was insufficient to sustain the convictions because the testimony of her accomplices was uncorroborated, (3) the instruction on accomplice corroboration was contrary to law, (4) reference to Leites nickname Dark Angel was prejudicial, (5) the guilty pleas of the defendants accomplices resulted in coerced testimony and the jury may have improperly used those guilty pleas to infer the defendants guilt, (6) the trial court violated Leites jury trial rights when it sentenced her to the upper term for kidnapping, (7) the lying-in-wait special circumstance is invalid, (8) the trial court improperly imposed a parole revocation restitution fine, and (9) the abstract of judgment must be amended to reflect that the prison terms imposed are to run concurrently and to correct the award of presentence credit.
Court conclude that the trial court improperly imposed a parole revocation restitution fine as to each defendant. We also conclude that the defendants abstracts of judgment must be corrected. In all other respects, however, Court find no prejudicial error. Therefore, Court modify the judgment and affirm.
