P. v. DeVaughn CA4/2
Defendant was convicted of numerous financial and theft-related crimes and sentenced to prison in 2011. He appealed, raising various issues, including challenges to the sentence imposed. In a published opinion (People v. DeVaughn (2014) 227 Cal.App.4th 1092), we affirmed his convictions and agreed with some of the sentencing challenges, remanding the matter to the trial court with directions to strike the terms imposed on counts 18, 19, 20, 21, and 33, along with the enhancement pursuant to Penal Code section 12022.6, subdivision (a)(2), as to count 10. We also directed the court to stay the sentences for counts 12, 29, 38 and 46 pursuant to Penal Code section 654, impose a consecutive term of eight months (one-third the middle term) for count 2, and to run a concurrent two-year term for count 23. Finally, we directed the court to amend the abstract of judgment to reflect those changes, and to recalculate the total sentence.
