Error and/or relief
The record contains an abstract of judgment for the indeterminate term, but not an abstract for the determinate terms. Further, there is an error in the abstract of judgment for the indeterminate term that must be corrected.
The trial court sentenced the defendant to life imprisonment for attempted murder. However, the abstract of judgment indicates a sentence of life without the possibility of parole.
We direct the trial court to prepare an amended abstract of judgment that reflects the correct indeterminate term imposed and to ensure there is a separate abstract of judgment for the determinate terms
Holding:
[GARY Note: The court cited no authority for its order directing the trial court to amend the abstract of judgment. Aside from it seeming to be an obvious need, there is much authority for correction of abstracts of judgments and minute orders. Here are a few.]Authority:
