P. v. Lara
Pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant Artemio Trelles Lara was convicted of one count of violating Health and Safety Code section 11378 (possession of controlled substance for sale). The trial court sentenced defendant to three years in prison. On appeal, defendant contends: (1) the trial courts imposition of a three-year term violated the terms of his oral plea agreement which provided for a two-year term; and (2) the trial court lacked the authority to suspend his drivers license under Vehicle Code section 13202, subdivision (b). We agree with defendants second contention (which the People concede has merit) and reverse the courts order suspending defendants drivers license for a year. In all other respects, the judgment is affirmed.
