California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Herrera, B286348 (Cal. App. 2019):
We express no opinion on how the court should rule. We note only: (1) the court's decision must be "in strict compliance with section 1385(a)" (Romero, supra, 13 Cal.4th at p. 530), and (2) under the full resentencing rule, should the court decide to strike the section 667, subdivision (a) prior, it is entitled to reconsider its other prior sentencing choices (see People v. Buycks, supra, 5 Cal.5th at p. 893).
