PEOPLE v. CORREA
A jury found defendant Victor Correa guilty of seven counts of being a felon in possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, 12021, subd. (a)(1))[1]and one count of receiving stolen property ( 496d, subd. (a)). The trial court sentenced him to an aggregate term of 200 years to life. Defendant appeals, contending that (1) six of the seven sentence terms for firearm possession must be stayed pursuant to section 654, and (2) the sentence of multiple, consecutive life terms without the requisite jury findings violated his Fifth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendment rights under Cunningham v. California (2007) 549 U.S. [166 L.Ed.2d 856] (Cunningham), Blakely v. Washington (2004) 542 U.S. 296 [159 L.Ed.2d 403] (Blakely), and Apprendi v. New Jersey (2000) 530 U.S. 466 [147 L.Ed.2d 435] (Apprendi). Court shall order the abstract amended but otherwise affirm the judgment.
