Does the Attorney General have the power to appeal against the entire sentencing scheme?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Cole, B253755 (Cal. App. 2015):

The Attorney General contends that because the trial court imposed but stayed sentence on counts 2 and 3, the trial court should be directed on remand to exercise its sentencing discretion as to whether to impose and stay sentencing on counts 2 and 3. (People v. Burbine (2003) 106 Cal.App.4th 1250, 1258.) We agree and therefore further direct the trial court on remand for resentencing to consider the entire sentencing scheme.
