California Court of Appeal

In case where Board of Parole Hearings decided petitioner was suitable for parole, Governor's reversal of parole based on his conclusion that the gravity of the commitment offense alone justified an unsuitability finding is vacated as no evidence in the record that was before the Board supports a conclusion that, due solely to the nature of his commitment offense, petitioner currently poses an unreasonable risk of danger to society if released.
