P. v. Zavala
The trial court granted defendant Antonio Martinez Zavalas pretrial request that it strike allegations from the information charging him, for purposes of sentencing, with having four prior serious felony convictions. (Pen. Code, 1385, subd. (a); People v. Superior Court (Romero) (1996) 13 Cal.4th 497.)
The People appeal, contending the trial court abused its discretion in striking the allegations. Court cannot say that the trial court acted arbitrarily, capriciously, or beyond the bounds of reasons. (Peoplev.Williams (1998) 17 Cal.4th 148, 162; Peoplev.Rodrigues (1994) 8 Cal.4th 1060, 1124.) In other words, there was no abuse of discretion, and Court affirm the judgment.
