P. v. Meza
Defendant Freddy Meza severely beat his girlfriend, threatened her, and took her car. The next day, he called her and threatened retaliation if she testified. While awaiting trial in the county jail, he assaulted another inmate. He was convicted of several charges and sentenced to 11 years four months in prison.
On appeal, Meza argues that the evidence was insufficient to prove a charge under Penal Code section 10851 of unlawfully taking a vehicle. He also contends that the court erred by failing to give him four additional days of presentence custody credit when it recalled and corrected his sentence four days after the original sentencing. Court reject these contentions and order correction of two minor sentencing errors conceded by the People and affirm the judgment in all other respects.
