California Court of Appeal

Conviction of defendant for sexual abuse of three of his children are affirmed as, because the trial court had inherent authority to reconsider its order dismissing counts 4 and 5, both of which alleged the commission of a forcible lewd act on a child in violation of section 288(b), the trial court's order vacating the dismissal of those counts and reinstating them was proper.
