P. v. Buenrostro CA4/3
This case comes to us on transfer from the California Supreme Court. After we affirmed the judgment committing appellant to prison for 28 years, the Supreme Court granted his petition for review and ordered us to vacate our decision and reconsider the matter in light of various sentencing laws that became effective on January 1, 2022. Given these new laws, we agree with the parties that appellant is entitled to be resentenced. Therefore, we vacate our prior opinion in People v. Buenrostro (Sept. 14, 2021, G058813) [nonpub. opn.], reverse appellant’s sentence, and remand the matter for a new sentencing hearing. However, we remain convinced appellant’s arguments regarding the sufficiency of the evidence and the introduction of certain evidence lack merit. Therefore, we affirm the judgment in all other respects.
