Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Under 667.5(b), a prison prior is for a case where the defendant did not remain free from custody for 5 years before the new offense. It is one 667.5 for each trip to prison, not per case. If 2 cases resolved together with one prison sentence, one 667.5. It is also one per case, so if there was a prison sentence and a subsequent parole violation, that's one 667.5, not 2.

His attorney is going to have to review the rap sheet and records to sort this out.
