P. v. Terrill
A jury found defendant and appellant John Ervin Terrill guilty of assault by force likely to produce great bodily injury. (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1).)[1] The jury also found true that defendant had personally inflicted great bodily injury on the victim. (§ 12022.7, subd. (a).) Defendant subsequently admitted that he had sustained three prior prison terms. (§ 667.5, subd. (b).) As a result, defendant was sentenced to a total term of 10 years in state prison with credit for time served. Defendant’s sole contention on appeal is that the abstract of judgment should be corrected to describe his convicted offense as “assault by force likely to produce great bodily injury” rather than “assault with a deadly weapon.” We agree and will direct the superior court clerk to amend the abstract of judgment.
