California Court of Appeal

Sentence for robbing a convenience store and committing assault with a deadly weapon, a pair of scissors, is remanded for resentencing where the trial court erred by not staying the one-year sentence for assault with a deadly weapon under Penal Code section 654, because the defendant's assault and robbery were an indivisible transaction and the trial court already sentenced him for robbery.
