P. v. Curtis
Defendant Dennis James Curtis was convicted by plea of felony possession of methamphetamine (Health & Saf. Code, 11377, subd. (a)), being under the influence of cocaine (Health & Saf. Code, 11550, subd. (a)), and felony possession of ammunition by a felon (Pen. Code, 12316, subd. (b)). On appeal he contends that his plea bargain contemplated a reduction of the first and third counts from felonies to misdemeanors. We agree that the plea appeared to be induced by an undertaking by the court to reduce the methamphetamine charge to a misdemeanor. Court will therefore remand for resentencing.
