P. v. Parlanti
Appellant Carlo Parlanti was tried before a jury and convicted of forcible rape, inflicting corporal injury on a cohabitant, and false imprisonment by force or violence. (Pen. Code, 261, subd. (a)(2), 273.5, subd. (a), 236.) The trial court sentenced appellant to nine years in prison, including an eight-year upper term for rape, and a consecutive one-year middle term for corporal injury to a cohabitant. The three-year term for false imprisonment was stayed pursuant to section 654. Appellant contends that the trial court committed instructional and sentencing errors and that trial counsel was ineffective because he failed to request certain instructions. Court affirm the judgment, vacate appellant's sentence, and remand the matter for resentencing.
