P. v. Lamb
After denial of his motion to suppress, defendant entered a negotiated plea of no contest to possessing a forged driver's license (Pen. Code, § 470b; further undesignated section references are to the Penal Code), five counts of passing a false check (§ 470, subd. (d)), two counts of possessing a fictitious check (§ 476), three counts of receiving stolen property (§ 496, subd. (a)), two counts of false impersonation (§ 529, subd. 3), possession of personal identifying information of 10 or more persons (§ 530.5, subd. (c)(3)), and three counts of burglary (§ 459). He also admitted four special allegations for prior prison terms (§ 667.5, subd. (b)). The trial court thereafter denied defendant's motion to withdraw his plea and sentenced him to an aggregate state prison term of 17 years, 8 months.
Defendant appeals, challenging the denial of his motions to suppress and to withdraw his plea. He also contends his sentence on several counts must be stayed pursuant to section 654, consecutive sentences were not validly imposed on some counts, and he is entitled to additional presentence credits. We reject defendant's challenges to his motions but agree in part on his other contentions. We therefore affirm in part and reverse in part.
