People v. Edwards
Opinion
Lead Opinion
McKinster, J.
Defendant Jean Marie Edwards appeals the sentence imposed following her plea of no contest in two cases. She contends that the trial court erred in imposing sentence enhancements more than once. She also contends that an amendment to Penal Code section 4019, which would result in additional credit for time served before sentencing, should apply retroactively.
*1054 We conclude that the trial court erred with respect to the imposition of sentence enhancements pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 11370.2 and Penal Code section 667.5. We will remand both cases for resentencing, but will otherwise affirm the judgments.
