INTRODUCTION
Homero Corona Mendoza appeals following his convictions on a number of
felony and misdemeanor sex crimes. Defendant presents the following three issues on
appeal: (1) the trial court erred by failing to sua sponte instruct the jury on the lesser
included offense of attempted lewd and lascivious act with regard to count 2; (2) the trial
court erred by sentencing defendant to one year in jail on count 8 because the maximum
punishment for the crime is 180 days in jail; and (3) the abstract of judgment must be
modified to reflect the statutory bases for the imposition of various penalty assessments.
We will remand for modification of the sentence and correction of the abstract of
judgment, but otherwise affirm the judgment.
RELEVANT PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
In an amended information filed by the Kern County District Attorney on
January 5, 2012, defendant was charged as follows: lewd and lascivious acts with a
minor (Pen. Code,1 § 288, subd. (a), counts 1-3), annoying or molesting a child under 18
(§ 647.6, counts 4, 5 & 9), indecent exposure (§ 314.1, counts 6-7) and sexual battery
(§ 243.4, subd. (e)(1)). He pled not guilty to all counts.
Following trial, the jury convicted defendant on all counts.
On February 24, 2012, defendant was sentenced to a total of 14 years in custody.
More specifically, as to counts 1 through 3, defendant was ordered to serve a total of 10
years in state prison. The court imposed an additional four years in custody for the
misdemeanor offenses, to be served in the Kern County jail following completion of the
state prison sentence. Various fines, fees and assessments were also imposed. That same
date, defendant filed a notice of appeal.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE FACTS2
Lewd and Lascivious Conduct
When N.S. was 11 years old, her mother was dating or friendly with defendant.
On three occasions, while she and her mother were staying at or visiting defendant’s
apartment, defendant touched her.
On the first occasion, it was evening time. N.S., her mother, and defendant were
lying on the bed watching television; N.S.’s mother was in the middle. When her mother
got up to use the bathroom, defendant moved to her side of the bed and put his hands on
N.S.’s stomach, over her shirt. His hands touched the bottom part of her breasts. It made
her uncomfortable and she was afraid.
On the second occasion, N.S. was in the living room watching television. It was
morning time and her mother got up and went into the bathroom to shower. Defendant
approached and sat next to N.S. on the couch. She explained that defendant was hugging
her “like a girlfriend” from behind, when he reached to touch her breasts. She pushed his
hands away and told him to stop, while moving to another part of the couch. The
incident made her uncomfortable.
On the third occasion, N.S. was in defendant’s home sitting on the edge of the
couch in the living room while her mother was in the kitchen. Defendant came into the
living room, moving close to her. He put his hands inside the back of her shirt. It made
her uncomfortable.
N.S. did not tell her mother about these incidents because she was afraid. She
only told her mother when the police came to their home.
Annoying Incidents
In late April 2011, on a Friday morning, 14-year-old Abigail A. was walking to
the school bus stop when a red van pulled up alongside her. The driver asked for her
2A detailed summary of the facts is not necessary in light of the issues on appeal. When
appropriate, the testimony offered and evidence adduced will be referenced with specificity in
this court’s analysis.
3.
name and phone number, and he asked where she lived. She gave him a false name, but
did not provide her address or phone number. She felt “molested” and told her father
about the incident.
The following Monday morning, Abigail’s father and brother followed behind her
as she walked to the bus stop. The same man was sitting in a car parked along her route.
He stopped her and gave her a piece of paper with a telephone number on it. He then
drove off. Abigail gave the paper to her father, who called police.
Abigail identified defendant as the driver of the vehicle on both occasions.
Defendant was subsequently stopped by an officer who had originally responded to a
request for assistance by Abigail’s father.
Indecent Exposure Incidents
E.P.
On June 17, 2011, at about 7:00 a.m., 15-year-old E.P. was walking to a summer
school physical education class. A newer red truck pulled up alongside her. E.P. was on
the sidewalk about seven feet from the truck. The driver asked her for the direction of a
street. E.P. pointed in the direction of the street then noticed the driver had his penis out
and was playing with it. She felt strange and did not know what to do. She continued
walking toward school and the driver drove off.
Once she got to the school, E.P. told a teacher. She then reported the incident to
security. A couple days later, she was shown a picture of defendant. He was the driver
of the truck.
Joanna
Later that same morning, 17-year-old Joanna R. was also walking to school. Since
she was running late that morning, she was walking alone instead of with her brother.
About a block from the school, a newer red truck pulled up and stopped in the middle of
the street. Joanna was about seven or eight feet away on the sidewalk. The driver asked
her for the direction to a street and she pointed in that direction. When the driver asked
4.
her how he could get to the street, she told him which streets to take. He began to
converse with her but she thought the situation was strange and kept walking.
The driver continued to follow her slowly in the truck, asking her more questions.
She thought he was “weird,” and then noticed he was “sweaty and stuff.” His penis was
exposed and he was masturbating. Joanna was afraid and walked faster. The driver
continued to follow her, but eventually made a U-turn.
When Joanna got to the school she immediately reported the incident. Although
she could not recall his name, Joanna recognized the truck’s driver as the landlord or
owner of a home her family had previously rented. She called her mother and asked her
mother for the man’s name. Her mother looked it up on the rental agreement—it was
defendant. She gave the name to school police. Joanna later identified a photograph of
defendant as the driver of the truck.
Sexual Battery Incident
Twenty-two-year-old Nicole C. and friends had been wine tasting in Paso Robles
on June 4, 2011. They had traveled by limousine. When the group returned to
Bakersfield, she and two of those friends—David and Armando—spent the evening at a
bar. When the bar closed, the group intended to call for a cab, but cabs were already
waiting outside. One driver said he was a taxi; Nicole identified defendant as the driver.
After the cab dropped off David, she and Armando intended to travel to his home
together. They stopped at an ATM for additional funds. Nicole withdrew $20 from the
ATM to add to the $20 she had in her pocket. About this time, Armando expressed a
desire to go to a friend’s home nearby; Nicole refused. Armando then left on foot.
Eventually the cab pulled over and the driver told Nicole, who was sitting alone in
the backseat, “No money. You show me your pussy.” As the driver made this remark,
he reclined his seat, took off his seatbelt, and touched Nicole’s breasts. She was
frightened and wanted out of the cab. She threw $20 into the front seat and said, “No, let
me out now.” The driver repeated, “No money. You show me your pussy.” Nicole
5.
threw the other $20 into the front of the cab, said, “No. Let me out. I’m not like that,”
and managed to unlock the door. She got out of the cab and ran without looking back.
Because her cell phone battery was dead, Nicole flagged down another car and
asked the driver to call police. The driver did so. She spoke with police when they
arrived. She was terrified.
About two weeks later, Nicole viewed a photo lineup and identified defendant.
Prior to trial, she identified defendant in a live lineup.
DISCUSSION
I. The Alleged Instructional Error
Defendant argues the trial court erred in failing to instruct, sua sponte, on the
lesser included offense of attempted lewd and lascivious acts with a child under the age
of 14 years. More particularly, as to count 2, he claims the evidence shows he was not
touching N.S., and that N.S. herself testified she pushed his hand away when he
attempted to touch her. Therefore, he contends the jury could have found he was guilty
only of an attempted lewd and lascivious act. We are not persuaded.
A. Applicable Legal Standards
“A court must instruct sua sponte on general principles of law that are closely and
openly connected with the facts presented at trial. [Citation.]” (People v. Lopez (1998)
19 Cal.4th 282, 287.) “This sua sponte obligation extends to lesser included offenses if
the evidence ‘raises a question as to whether all of the elements of the charged offense
are present and there is evidence that would justify a conviction of such a lesser offense.
[Citations.]’ [Citations.]” (Id. at pp. 287-288.) “As we stated recently, ‘A criminal
defendant is entitled to an instruction on a lesser included offense only if [citation] “there
is evidence which, if accepted by the trier of fact, would absolve [the] defendant from
guilt of the greater offense” [citation] but not the lesser. [Citations.]’ [Citation.]” (Id. at
p. 288.)
An offense is necessarily included with a charged offense if the greater offense
cannot be committed without also committing the lesser offense. (People v. Lopez,
6.
supra, 19 Cal.4th at p. 288.) An attempt to commit a charged crime is a lesser included
offense to the completed crime. (In re Sylvester C. (2006) 137 Cal.App.4th 601, 609.)
The trial court has a sua sponte duty to instruct on a lesser included offense when
substantial evidence, viewed in the light favorable to the defendant, warrants such an
instruction. (People v. Turk (2008) 164 Cal.App.4th 1361, 1368, fn. 5.) However, a
“court is not obliged to instruct on theories that have no such evidentiary support.”
(People v. Breverman (1998) 19 Cal.4th 142, 162.) “‘“[I]f there is no proof, other than
an unexplainable rejection of the prosecution’s evidence, that the offense was less than
that charged, such instructions [on lesser included offenses] shall not be given.”’
[Citation.]” (People v. Friend (2009) 47 Cal.4th 1, 51-52.)
If a trial court fails to instruct on a lesser included offense that is supported by the
evidence, the error is one of state law alone. (People v. Breverman, supra, 19 Cal.4th at
p. 165.) Such an error does not require reversal unless “an examination of the entire
record establishes a reasonable probability that the error affected the outcome.” (Id. at
pp. 165; see id. at pp. 165-178; People v. Watson (1956) 46 Cal.2d 818, 836.)
B. N.S.’s Testimony
We find it valuable to set forth N.S.’s testimony concerning the act charged in
count 2. During direct examination, the following testimony was elicited:
“Q. What happened the second time?
“A. When it was morning time, I was barely was—they were
sleeping. I was awake. I was in the living room watching TV, and then my
mom went to the rest room. She was taking a shower, and he came up to
me. And he was—and then he said—he was—I was in a big couch. I was
in a big couch watching TV, and he was sitting next to me. He went
outside of his room. He was coming to the living room.
“He was sitting next to me. He was about to touch me but I pushed
him away and then he went to sit on the other couch. [¶] … [¶]
“Q. … What was he doing with his hands before you pushed him
away?
“A. He was like—like he was—like—
7.
“Q. Was he reaching for you?
“A. Yeah.
“Q. And what part of your body was he reaching for?
“A. From right here on top.
“Q. Your boobs?
“A. Yeah.
“Q. Okay. And when he’s reaching for them, what did you do when
he did that?
“A. I was sitting down. He was still reaching me then I just like
pushed him away, and I told him to stop it. And I pushed him away. Then
he just left to the other couch. That’s when my mom came out.
“Q. Okay. And he’s reaching after your boobs. You pushed him
away?
“A. Uh-huh.
“Q. How did that make you feel?
“A. Uncomfortable.”
On cross-examination, testimony regarding the second incident was brief:
“Q. Now, the second time, was this at your home or his home?
“A. His home.
“Q. That’s when he reached out to you but he didn’t touch any
private parts?
“A. No.”
On redirect examination, the following testimony was elicited:
“Q. We’re almost done. You can go home. The second time—
okay, the second time when this happened, you said the defendant reached
out—reached out to you. Did he come up from in front of you or behind
you?
“A. He was sitting right here, and he was like—he was like he
wasn’t—he was hugging me but he wasn’t touching me. Like a hug, like a
8.
girlfriend hug. He was just like hugging me. That’s when he was about to
reach but I pushed him away.
“Q. You said he was like hugging you. Was he doing that from
behind or in front of you?
“A. Behind.
“Q. From behind?
“A. Yeah.
“Q. Okay. You said it was like a girlfriend hug. What does that
mean?
“A. Like when—like, we were going out.
“Q. Okay. You’re not his girlfriend?
“A. No.
“Q. And I know he didn’t touch your skin but was—where [sic] his
hands over your clothing on your boobs?
“A. Uh-huh.”
C. Analysis
A violation of section 288 is committed when a person touches a child under the
age of 14 years with the specific intent to arouse the sexual desires of either the child or
that person. (§ 288, subd. (a); People v. Martinez (1995) 11 Cal.4th 434, 452.) An
attempt to commit a crime is complete where the perpetrator possesses the specific intent
to commit the target crime and performs a direct but ineffectual act toward its
commission. (People v. Memro (1985) 38 Cal.3d 658, 698, overruled on other grounds in
People v. Gaines (2009) 46 Cal.4th 172, 181.) Thus, a perpetrator who completes a
touching with the requisite specific intent also necessarily completes an attempt to
commit the crime. (See In re Ryan N. (2001) 92 Cal.App.4th 1359, 1381.) Such are the
circumstances here.
The evidence establishes that defendant touched N.S., holding her in a “girlfriend
hug” on the couch in his living room while her mother was in another room. He then
9.
attempted to touch N.S.’s chest or breast area, and she pushed his hand away. His crime
was completed when he hugged N.S. with the requisite specific intent. It is not relevant
that he was thwarted in his further attempt to touch her breasts. (People v. Martinez,
supra, 11 Cal.4th at p. 452; People v. Memro, supra, 38 Cal.3d at p. 698; In re Ryan N.,
supra, 92 Cal.App.4th at p. 1381.) Defendant asserts the jury could have believed he
“innocently” hugged N.S., but there was no evidence offered for this proposition. N.S.’s
testimony was clear. The hug was not an innocent hug; rather, it was a “girlfriend hug,”
or as N.S. explained, the type of hug that would occur between persons who had an
intimate relationship. She had no such relationship with defendant. Defendant’s
assertion lacks merit.
The evidence did not raise a question as to whether all of the elements of the
charged offense were met, nor was there evidence that would justify a conviction of a
lesser offense. (People v. Lopez, supra, 19 Cal.4th at pp. 287-288.) As a result, the trial
court was not obligated to instruct the jury on the lesser included offense of attempted
lewd and lascivious act. (Id. at p. 288.)
Defendant argues, without any citation to legal authority, that because N.S.’s
testimony regarding the hug occurred during redirect, that testimony is not credible.
“‘Redirect examination’ is an examination of a witness by the direct examiner subsequent
to the cross-examination of the witness.” (Evid. Code, § 762.) “Upon redirect
examination it is proper to permit the witness to state facts and circumstances that tend to
correct or repeal any wrong impressions or inferences that arise from the matter drawn
out on cross-examination, notwithstanding such facts and circumstances may prejudice
the case for the defendant.” (People v. Corey (1908) 8 Cal.App. 720, 725.) “The
principal function of redirect examination is to reply to new matters drawn out on cross-
examination and to explain or rebut adverse testimony or inferences developed on cross-
examination.” (People v. Penrice (1961) 195 Cal.App.2d 360, 364.)
Here, the testimony elicited on redirect was necessary to correct any wrong
impression left by the testimony given on cross-examination. That testimony was brief
10.
and could have left the jury with the impression N.S. was never touched during the
second incident.
Finally, defendant argues the trial court’s failure to instruct the jury on attempted
lewd and lascivious conduct amounted to prejudicial error. Further, he contends that
because his due process rights under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments were
violated, this court should review the purported error under the federal standard of
Chapman v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 18.
We have already determined there was no error. Notwithstanding that finding,
even if we were to agree the trial court should have instructed on the lesser included
offense of attempt, any error in failing to give such instructions would have been
harmless.
“‘The erroneous failure to instruct on a lesser included offense generally is
subject to harmless error review under the standard of People v. Watson
(1956) 46 Cal.2d 818, at pages 836–837. Reversal is required only if it is
reasonably probable the jury would have returned a different verdict absent
the error or errors complained of. [Citations.]’ (People v. Rogers (2006)
39 Cal.4th 826, 867–868, fn. omitted; and see id., p. 868, fn. 16 [the
footnote describes potential exceptions for certain federal constitutional
violations]; see also People v. Ledesma (2006) 39 Cal.4th 641, 716; People
v. Sakarias [(2000)] 22 Cal.4th [596,] 621 [a violation of the duty imposed
by state law to instruct on lesser included offenses is evaluated under the
Watson standard]; People v. Breverman[, supra,] 19 Cal.4th 142, 165
[same]; but see People v. Elliot [(2005)] 37 Cal.4th [453,] 475
[characterizing erroneous failure to instruct on a lesser included offense as a
denial of due process of law to be evaluated on appeal under the standard
set forth in Chapman v. California, [supra,] 386 U.S. 18, 24.)” (People v.
Prince (2007) 40 Cal.4th 1179, 1267.)
We do not believe it is reasonably probable the absence of an attempted lewd and
lascivious act instruction could have affected the outcome of the jury’s verdict. Indeed,
any error would have been harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. As explained above, the
lewd and lascivious act was completed when defendant hugged N.S. The fact he was not
successful in subsequently touching her breasts because she thwarted his attempt by
pushing his hands away is simply not relevant. The crime had already been committed
11.
by the time N.S. pushed defendant’s hands away when he reached for her breasts. The
evidence supporting the judgment is strong.
Moreover, there is little, if any, evidence of an attempted lewd and lascivious act.
Even if we were to find there was evidence of an attempt, on these facts, any such
evidence would be so weak as to be insubstantial. (People v. Moye (2009) 47 Cal.4th
537, 556 [failure to give jury lesser offense choice does not require reversal when
evidence supporting greater offense is sufficiently strong that it is unlikely a properly
instructed jury would have selected the lesser offense].)
In conclusion, on this record, the trial court was not obligated to instruct the jury
on the lesser included offense of attempted lewd and lascivious act. (People v.
Breverman, supra, 19 Cal.4th at p. 162.)
II. The Sentence Imposed in Count 8
Section 243.4, subdivision (e)(1) provides that “[a]ny person who touches an
intimate part of another person, if the touching is against the will of the person touched,
and is for the specific purpose of sexual arousal, sexual gratification, or sexual abuse, is
guilty of misdemeanor sexual battery, punishable by a fine … or by imprisonment in a
county jail not exceeding six months, or by both that fine and imprisonment.”
At sentencing on February 24, 2012, pertinent to this issue, the court sentenced
defendant as follows:
“Count 8, a violation of … Section 243.4, sub (e), sub (1), defendant’s
application for probation is denied. He is sentenced to the Kern County Jail
for a period of one year. This sentence is to be served consecutive with the
sentenced imposed above.” (Italics added.)
Defendant contends the trial court imposed an illegal sentence when it imposed a
term of one year, versus six months, in county jail. Plaintiff concedes the error. We
agree with defendant and accept plaintiff’s concession. Accordingly, we order the minute
order dated February 24, 2012, be modified to correct the unauthorized sentence and
provide for a sentence of 180 days in county jail as to count 8. Additionally, the abstract
of judgment on page 2, item 11, should be corrected to read as follows: “Defendant to
12.
serve a total of 10 years in the Department of Corrections as to counts 1, 2, 3 and
defendant to serve a total of three years six months in the Kern County jail for remaining
counts upon completion of prison sentence.”
III. The Abstract of Judgment Must Be Modified
Defendant contends the trial court erred when it imposed various penalty
assessments related to counts 1 through 3 because the abstract of judgment does not
separately list those penalties and their statutory bases. Plaintiff agrees and concedes the
issue.
At sentencing, the trial court imposed the following sentences regarding counts 1
through 3:
“[THE COURT:] As far as Count 1, violation of … Section 288, sub
(a), probation is denied. The defendant is sentenced to the Department of
Corrections for the midterm of six years. [¶] … [¶]
“He is ordered to pay a fine of $300 pursuant to … Section 290.3,
plus a penalty assessment of $840, as referenced and included in the
probation officer’s report at page 15, lines 8 through 13; plus a 30-dollar
fee pursuant to Government Code Section 70373; plus a $40 fee pursuant to
… Section 1465.8.
“As to Count 2, a violation of … Section 288, sub (a), probation is
denied. Defendant is sentenced to the Department of Corrections for a
period of two years. That sentence is to be served concurrent. Two years is
one-third the midterm. That sentence is to be served consecutive with the
sentence imposed above. [¶] … [¶]
“He is ordered to pay a fine of $500 pursuant to … Section 290.3,
plus a penalty assessment of $1400, as referenced and incorporated on page
16, lines 1 through 6. [¶] … [¶]
“As to Count 3, a violation of … Section 288, sub (a), probation is
denied. The defendant is sentenced to the Department of Corrections for
one-third the midterm or two years. That sentence is to be served
consecutive with the sentence imposed above. [¶] … [¶]
“He is ordered to pay a $500 fine pursuant to … Section 290.3, plus
a penalty assessment of $1,400, as referenced and incorporated in the
probation officer’s report at page 16, line 22, through page 17, line 3.”
13.
The probation officer’s report provides the following, in relevant part:
“*(As to the penalty assessment of $840.00, that consists of
individual assessments in the amounts of $300.00 (… Section 1464(a)),
$210.00 (Government Code Section 76000(a)), $30.00 (Government Code
Section 76104.6), $90.00 (Government Code Section 76104.7), $150.00
(Government Code Section 70372(a)) and $60.00 (… Section 1465.7.)”
“*(As to the penalty assessment of $1,400.00, that consists of
individual assessments in the amounts of $500.00 (… Section 1464(a)),
$350.00 (Government Code Section 76000(a)), $50.00 (Government Code
Section 76104.6), $150.00 (Government Code Section 76104.7), $250.00
(Government Code Section 70372(a)) and $100.00 (… Section 1465.7.)”
“*(As to the penalty assessment of $1,400.00, that consists of
individual assessments in the amounts of $500.00 (… Section 1464(a)),
$350.00 (Government Code Section 76000(a)), $50.00 (Government Code
Section 76104.6), $150.00 (Government Code Section 76104.7), $250.00
(Government Code Section 70372(a)) and $100.00 (… Section 1465.7.)”
The abstract of judgment filed February 27, 2012, does not separately list the
penalties imposed. Rather, it reads as follows: “Defendant ordered to pay as to count 1:
$300 plus penalty assessment of $840 pursuant to PC 290.3. Defendant ordered to pay as
to count 2: $500 plus penalty assessment of $1400 pursuant to PC 290.3. Defendant
ordered to pay as to count 3: $500 plus penalty assessment of $1400 pursuant to PC
290.3.” (Some capitalization omitted.)
Again, we agree with defendant and accept plaintiff’s concession. In People v.
High (2004) 119 Cal.App.4th 1192, the defendant was convicted of various crimes and
sentenced to state prison. (Id. at p. 1195.) There were clerical errors in the abstract of
judgment. (Id. at pp. 1199-1200.) Noting that although “a detailed recitation of all the
fees, fines and penalties on the record may be tedious” and that “California law does not
authorize shortcuts,” the appellate court explained that “[a]ll fines and fees must be set
forth in the abstract of judgment” because it “‘“‘digest[s] or summarize[s]’”’” the
judgment and without such specification the Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation “cannot fulfill its statutory duty to collect and forward deductions from
14.
prisoner wages to the appropriate agency.” (Id. at p. 1200.) Thus, the Court of Appeal
remanded to the trial court to correct the clerical errors. (Id. at pp. 1200-1201.)
Here, the trial court’s reference to the probation report and its incorporation of
certain portions thereof was proper. (See People v. Voit (2011) 200 Cal.App.4th 1353,
1373; People v. Sharret (2011) 191 Cal.App.4th 859, 864.) Nevertheless, after oral
pronouncement of the sentence occurs, “[t]he responsibility then falls to the trial court
clerk to specify the penalties and surcharge in appropriate amounts in the minutes, and
more importantly, the abstract of judgment.” (People v. Sharret, supra, at p. 864; see
People v. Voit, supra, at p. 1373.) Neither the minute order nor the abstract of judgment
specify the penalties and surcharges imposed here. Therefore, we will remand and direct
the trial court to correct both the minute order and the abstract of judgment accordingly.
(People v. High, supra, 119 Cal.App.4th at p. 1200.)
DISPOSITION
As to counts 1 through 3, the clerk of the superior court is directed to prepare an
amended abstract of judgment, specifically listing the penalty assessments imposed by
the trial court along with the statutory basis for each assessment imposed, as described in
part III. of this opinion. Further, as to count 8, the judgment is modified to impose a
sentence of 180 days. The clerk of the superior court is directed to forward a copy of the
amended abstract of judgment to California’s Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation. The judgment is affirmed in all other respects.
