P. v. King
Cody Lee King appeals the sentence imposed upon him following his conviction on charges of first degree murder, first degree robbery and first degree burglary. Specifically, King contends the court erred by ordering him to serve separate (albeit concurrent) sentences for the robbery and burglary convictions, in addition to the sentence imposed for the murder. Because all three crimes were part of a single course of indivisible conduct carried out with the intent to fulfill a single objective, he argues the separate sentences violated Penal Code section 654s prohibition against double punishment. Court agree.
