What is the test for personal infliction of great bodily injury under section 12022.7?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Galindo, F073856 (Cal. App. 2019):

by any means of force likely to produce great bodily injury while confined in a state prison, with a section 12022.7 enhancement for the personal infliction of great bodily injury. "Proof that a victim's bodily injury is 'great' - that is, significant or substantial within the meaning of section 12022.7 - is commonly established by evidence of the severity of the victim's physical injury, the resulting pain, or the medical care required to treat or repair the injury.
