P. v. Cuevas
This case arises from a violent street fight between rival gang members. Defendant pleaded no contest to attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon and admitted great bodily injury and gang-related enhancements (§ 186.22, subd. (b)). Defendant was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment. On appeal and in the related petition for writ of habeas corpus, defendant contends the trial court improperly relied on defendant’s placement in a certain pretrial grouping to impose a lengthy prison sentence. Court affirmed the judgment and denied the habeas petition.
