P. v. Chase CA1/3
Benjamin Chase was convicted of multiple crimes arising from a home invasion burglary and sentenced to a term of three years in prison. He contends his trial attorney provided constitutionally ineffective representation when she failed to communicate his wish to accept a pre-trial plea offer, allowed the offer to lapse, and failed to apprise him of a second plea offer. We agree Chase was denied effective assistance of counsel and remand the case for further proceedings consistent with In re Alvernaz (1992) 2 Cal.4th 924, 944 (Alvernaz.)
