P. v. Ripley
Defendant appeals his prison sentence following a conviction for possession for sale of methamphetamine (Health & Saf. Code, 11378) and residential burglary (Pen. Code, 459). Defendant contends his sentence should be modified because the trial courts sentence was unauthorized. The trial court imposed three one year prison term enhancements under section 667.5, subdivision (b), as well as two five year prior serious felony conviction enhancements under section 667, subdivision (a)(1). Two of the prison term enhancements were based on the same prior convictions as the serious felony enhancements. Defendant contends the trial court should have stricken the two one year enhancements that were based on the same prior convictions as the two five year enhancements. The People concede the error. Court agree and order these two duplicative one year enhancements stricken from defendants prison sentence.
