California v. Parra Martinez
Annotate this CaseDefendant-appellant Christopher Parra Martinez appealed a Superior Court’s decision not to strike two personal firearm use enhancements imposed pursuant to California Penal Code sections 12022.5 and 12022.53. The firearm enhancement provisions set forth in sections 12022.5 and 12055.53 were amended effective January 1, 2018 upon the passage of Senate Bill No. 620. (2017-2018 Reg. Sess.; Stats. 2017, ch. 682.) The Court of Appeal found the trial court record demonstrated that the trial court considered the appropriate circumstances and exercised its discretion in a reasonable manner when it declined to strike the firearm enhancements imposed at the time of defendant’s sentencing. Therefore, it found no reversible error in the trial court's decision not to strike the enhancement.
