P. v. Cordova CA2/8
Armando Romeo Cordova was convicted of two counts of attempted murder he committed at age 15. He was sentenced to an aggregate term of 74 years and eight months to life in state prison. On appeal, Cordova contends Senate Bill 1391, which repeals the People’s authority to prosecute 14- and 15-year-old minors as adults under most circumstances, applies retroactively to his case. We agree and remand the matter to juvenile court for further proceedings under California’s juvenile court law.
