P. v. Vega
Manuel Vega appeals from a sentence of six years for felony elder abuse. He contends that the trial court should have sua sponte instructed the jury on the legal definition of the word likely as it is used in the phrase likely to produce great bodily harm contained in CALCRIM No. 830 (felony elder abuse). He also contends that the trial court erred in denying his motion for a new trial because of juror misconduct. Finally, he contends that the trial court erred in imposing two fines pursuant to Government Code section 70373. For the following reasons, we affirm the convictions and remand to the trial court to strike the two fines.
