P. v. Rown
A jury found appellant guilty of inflicting corporal injury on a cohabitant (Pen. Code, 273.5, subd. (a)) and found true an allegation that appellant inflicted great bodily injury (GBI) upon the victim ( 12022.7, subd. (e)). In a bifurcated proceeding tried by the court without a jury, the court found true allegations that appellant had served two prior prison terms ( 667.5, subd. (b)), and had a qualifying prior felony conviction under Californias Three Strikes law ( 667, subds. (b)-(i)).) The court sentenced appellant to a prison term of 14 years. This consisted of four years for the section 273.5, subdivision (a) violation, doubled to eight years under the three strikes law (see 667, subd. (e)(1)), plus four years for the GBI enhancement, plus one year for each of the two prior prison terms. The court also imposed certain fines and/or fees, and issued a protective order requiring appellant to stay away from the victim for a period of three years. Imposition of a protective order was recommended in the probation report utilized by the judge at appellants sentencing, and appellant raised no objection at his sentencing hearing to imposition of the protective order.
