What is the appropriate sentence for an assault with intent to murder?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from The People v. Gomez, B218323, No. VA104973 (Cal. App. 2010):

The trial court imposed two enhancements involving great bodily injury. The first was a 25-year-to-life term pursuant to section 12022.53, subdivision (d), for causing great bodily injury by personally discharging a firearm. The second was the section 12022.7 enhancement. Subdivision (f) of section 12022.53 expressly provides: "An enhancement for great bodily injury as defined in Section 12022.7... shall not be imposed on a person in addition to an enhancement imposed pursuant to subdivision (d)." The section 12022.7 enhancement must be stayed. (People v. Gonzalez (2008) 43 Cal.4th 1118, 1130.)
