(a), 12022.7, subd. (d), count 4), inflicting corporal injury upon a spouse, resulting in a traumatic condition (§ 273.5, subd. (a), count 6), and child abuse (§ 273a, subd. (b), counts 11-13). He also admitted he had a prior serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)) and a prior strike conviction (§ 1170.12, subd. (c)(1), 667, subds. (c) & (e)(1)). Approximately five months later, defendant moved to withdraw his plea. Following a hearing, a trial court denied the motion. The court then sentenced him to a total of 21 years in state prison in accordance with the plea agreement.
