P. v. Floyd CA2/7
Following Robert Elwood Floyd’s 2017 conviction on 10 counts of second degree robbery (Pen. Code, § 211) and two counts of attempted robbery (§§ 211, 664) arising from a crime spree targeting businesses in South Los Angeles, the trial court sentenced Floyd to an aggregate indeterminate state prison term of 447 years to life under the three strikes law (§§ 667, subds.

(People v. Floyd (Aug. 20, 2019, B284321) [nonpub. opn.].)
Prior to the hearing on remand, the district attorney moved to resentence Floyd by dismissing all prior strike convictions and sentencing enhancements
