P. v. Spence CA3
A jury convicted defendant Gerald Spence of torture, infliction of corporal injury on a cohabitant, assault with a deadly weapon, and making a criminal threat, and the trial court found true allegations that he had two prior serious felony convictions. The trial court sentenced him to a determinate term of 11 years, followed by a consecutive indeterminate term of 50 years to life. This court affirmed the judgment of the trial court in his first appeal. (People v. Spence (Oct. 7, 2016, C074941) [nonpub. opn.].) The trial court subsequently set the matter for resentencing on its own motion because it had not imposed sentence on certain counts before staying them. At the resentencing hearing, the trial court imposed sentence on those counts and then stayed them.
