IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT
(Butte) ----
THE PEOPLE, C102903
Plaintiff and Respondent, (Super. Ct. No. 24CF04518)
v.
VANYA ERICSON HUMMEL,
Defendant and Appellant.
Defendant Vanya Ericson Hummel pleaded no contest to a charge of making criminal threats and the court sentenced him to an upper term of three years. Hummel does not contest his guilt but raises several challenges to his sentence. We affirm the judgment, but because we agree that Hummel did not validly waive his right to a jury trial on the aggravating sentencing factors and those factors were not properly proven, we vacate the sentence and remand the cause for a new sentencing hearing.
