The following excerpt is from People v. Flores, H045080 (Cal. App. 2019):
The Attorney General concedes that the trial court committed error when it denied Flores's 1203.4 petition in case SS972752A. "Where the propriety of the trial court's order on a petition for relief under section 1203.4 turns on the interpretation of the relevant statutory provisions, it presents an issue of law, which we review de novo." (People v. Seymour (2015) 239 Cal.App.4th 1418, 1428 (Seymour).) We agree that the trial court erred when it denied Flores's petition in case SS972752A.
