P. v. Hansen CA5
Defendant pleaded no contest to felony hit and run with injury in violation of Vehicle Code section 20001, subdivision (a) and admitted a prior prison term enhancement as part of a negotiated plea agreement pursuant to which he was sentenced to a term of five years’ imprisonment. In defendant’s initial appeal, our court struck the prior prison term in light of the passage of Senate Bill No. 136 (2019–2020 Reg. Sess.) and remanded for further proceedings regarding the plea agreement.
On August 5, 2021, the trial court held a hearing following the issuance of the remittitur in the direct appeal. The court struck the Penal Code section 667.5, subdivision (b) enhancement and ordered defendant’s sentence to be reduced by one year.
