People v. Aguayo CA4/2
Opinion
Opinion
I.
INTRODUCTION
Defendant and appellant Gabriel Aguayo appeals from the trial court’s
postjudgment order declining to dismiss his prior serious felony conviction and firearm 1 enhancements pursuant to Penal Code sections 1171.1 and 1385. On appeal, defendant
contends the trial court’s decision to reimpose the firearm and prior serious felony
enhancements was irrational because he was serving a life term and parole regulations
protected against the risk of injury or danger to the public. We will dismiss the appeal for
lack of jurisdiction.
