P. v. Billingsley
While fleeing from police during a routine traffic stop, defendant Michael Anthony Billingsley was shot by a taser and dropped a loaded handgun. A jury convicted him of possession of a firearm by a felon (Pen. Code, 12021, subd. (a)(1); count 1)[1] and illegal possession of ammunition ( 12316, subd. (b)(1); count 2). The trial court imposed a consecutive sentence on count 2 without stating reasons. Defendant contends this was error. However, the parties agree that the sentence on count 2 should be stayed pursuant to section 654. We shall remand this matter for resentencing.
