P. v. Williams CA2/2
A jury convicted Patrick Williams (defendant) of various crimes arising out of three instances of domestic violence. On appeal, he argues that (1) there was insufficient evidence that his acts in burning his girlfriend’s chest and back permanently disfigured her, thereby precluding one of his two convictions for mayhem, (2) the trial court erred in imposing the enhancement for great bodily injury for the two mayhem counts because such injury is an element of mayhem, and (3) the abstract of judgment contains a clerical error. Only defendant’s final contention has merit. Accordingly, we affirm his conviction and sentence, but order that the abstract of judgment be corrected.
