People v. Garcia

California Court of Appeal, 5th District

Decided May 2, 2018No. 2d Crim. No. B282787PublishedCited by 4 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtGilbert, P.J.

*1063Jesus Pedro Garcia appeals a judgment the trial court imposed after revoking his postrelease community supervision (PRCS). ( Pen. Code, §§ 3451, 3455.)1 The court imposed a 180-day period of confinement for Garcia's PRCS violation to run consecutively to a four-year prison term in another case. We conclude, among other things, that the court lacks authority to run a period of confinement for a PRCS violation consecutively to a sentence in another criminal case. The portion of the judgment imposing a consecutive sentence is stricken; as so modified, we affirm.
