P. v. Torrez CA1/5
Bryan Torrez appeals from a judgment of conviction and sentence imposed after a jury found him guilty of misdemeanor assault and battery (Pen. Code, §§ 240, 242). He contends (1) the court erred in precluding expert witness testimony to support his unconsciousness defense; (2) the prosecutor committed misconduct in asking a character witness about a purported arrest of the defendant for attempting to break into cars, because the arrest was actually for resisting a police officer; and (3) the sentencing minutes should be corrected so that he does not have to pay the fees and assessments imposed at sentencing or a $25 fee under section 1463.07. We will order a correction of the sentencing minutes and affirm the judgment.
