P. v. Rueda
A jury convicted defendant, Hector Rueda, III, of voluntary manslaughter (Pen. Code, § 192, subd. (a)), during which he used a knife (§ 12022, subd. (b)(1)), attempted voluntary manslaughter (§§ 664/192, subd. (a)), during which he used a knife and inflicted serious bodily injury (§ 12022.7, subd. (a)), and carrying a dirk or dagger (§ 12020, subd. (a)(4)). He was sentenced to prison for 12 years and appeals, claiming evidence was improperly excluded, the jury was misinstructed and the sentencing court erred in imposing certain fees. We reject his contentions, while directing the trial court to correct errors in the minutes of the sentencing hearing and the abstract of judgment.
