P. v. Tokumoto
Pursuant to a plea agreement, appellant, Byron Tokumoto, pled guilty to elder abuse (Pen. Code, 368, subd. (b)(1)) and admitted an enhancement allegation that in committing that offense, he personally inflicted great bodily injury that caused the victim to suffer paralysis of a permanent nature or coma-inducing brain injury. (Pen. Code, 12022.7, subd. (b)). The court imposed a prison term of nine years, consisting of the four-year upper term on the substantive offense and five years on the accompanying enhancement. Prior to sentencing, appellant moved to withdraw his plea (plea motion). The court denied the motion. Appellants sole contention on appeal is that the court erred in denying his plea motion.
