P. v. Santoyo CA2/6
Manuel Santoyo appeals the denial of a recommendation by the Secretary of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) to recall his sentence under former Penal Code section 1170, subdivision (d)(1). Appellant contends the trial court abused its discretion by failing to allow him to submit additional information relevant to the recall decision. The Attorney General agrees. We reverse and remand with directions.
Factual and Procedural History
In October 2010, appellant pled guilty to one count of attempted murder with the personal use of a firearm. (§§ 664/187, subd. (a).) He was sentenced to 19 years in state prison.
