P. v. Hollis CA2/3
Defendant Darrell Lyn Hollis received a third-strike sentence of 80 years to life after robbing two fast food franchises at gunpoint. He contends that a prosecution witness’s reference to his parole status in violation of the court’s pretrial order was prejudicial, that the court abused its discretion in declining to strike one of his strike priors, and that he is entitled to resentencing so the court may exercise its discretion to strike the firearm enhancements. We agree with defendant that the court must be given the opportunity to strike the firearm enhancements. Accordingly, we vacate defendant’s sentence and remand for resentencing. In all other respects, we affirm.
