Does section 654 of the Penal Code section 54 of the Criminal Code apply to a defendant who pleaded guilty to two counts of assault?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Walker, B266706 (Cal. App. 2017):

was obviously substantial evidence supporting the trial court's implicit finding to the contraryand that is what matters. (People v. Valli (2010) 187 Cal.App.4th 786, 794 [when reviewing claim of error under Penal Code section 654, evidence is viewed in the light most favorable to the People].) Penal Code section 654 therefore posed no bar to imposing sentence on both counts.
