IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT
(Yolo)
----
THE PEOPLE,
Plaintiff and Respondent, C077393
v. (Super. Ct. No. CRF134187)
THANH KIM HOANG,
Defendant and Appellant.
Appointed counsel for defendant Thanh Kim Hoang asked this court to review the
record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende
(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende).) Based on our examination of the entire record, we will
modify the judgment to dismiss two counts as provided in the plea agreement, and to
award 16 days of presentence credit. We will affirm the judgment as modified. We will
also direct the trial court to correct the minute order and abstract of judgment to reflect
the oral pronouncement of judgment.

City of West Sacramento Police Officer Daniel Gill responded to a vehicle
accident. He saw a Toyota Prius with significant damage, and he also saw defendant and
a man named Randolf standing over Randolf’s girlfriend Hope. Randolph and Hope had
been passengers in the car. Hope was ejected from the car when it overturned. She was
later pronounced dead at the scene.
Defendant admitted he had been driving the car. Officer Gill observed defendant
had bloodshot, watery eyes, his speech was slurred, and his breath smelled of alcohol.
Defendant gave a blood sample approximately 30 minutes later, and his blood-alcohol
content was 0.13 percent.
An information charged defendant with vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated
(Pen. Code, § 191.5, subd. (b) -- count 1), driving under the influence of alcohol causing
injury (Veh. Code, § 23153, subd. (a) -- count 2), and driving with a blood-alcohol
content of 0.08 or more causing injury (Veh. Code, § 23153, subd. (b) -- count 3).
As to the latter two counts, the information also alleged defendant personally inflicted
great bodily injury (Pen. Code, § 12022.7, subd. (a)) and caused injury to multiple
victims (Veh. Code, § 23558).
Defendant pleaded no contest to driving with a blood-alcohol content of 0.08
percent or above causing injury and admitted the allegation that he had personally
inflicted great bodily injury. The plea agreement provided that defendant would be
sentenced to two years on count 3, plus a consecutive three years on the enhancement
allegation, for an aggregate term of five years. The plea agreement also provided that
the remaining counts would be dismissed. The trial court sentenced defendant consistent
with the plea agreement, but it did not dismiss the remaining counts. The trial court
ordered defendant to pay a $300 restitution fine (Pen. Code, § 1202.4), a $300 parole
revocation fine (Pen. Code, § 1202.45), a $50 crime lab analysis fee plus penalty
assessments of $155 (Health & Saf. Code, § 11372.5), a $150 drug program fee plus
2
penalty assessments of $465 (Health & Saf. Code, § 11372.7), a $40 court operations
assessment (Pen. Code, § 1465.8), and a $30 criminal conviction assessment (Gov. Code,
§ 70373, subd. (a)(1)).
Defendant did not obtain a certificate of probable cause.
II
Appointed counsel filed an opening brief setting forth the facts of the case and
asking this court to review the record and determine whether there are any arguable
issues on appeal. (Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant was advised by counsel
of the right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of the date of filing the opening
brief. More than 30 days elapsed and we received no communication from defendant.
We have examined the entire record. At sentencing, the trial court did not dismiss
the remaining counts (counts 1 and 2) as provided in the plea agreement. We will modify
the judgment to dismiss those counts and the attendant enhancement allegations.
In addition, “[r]endition of the judgment is normally an oral pronouncement,
and the abstract of judgment cannot add to, or modify, the judgment, but only purports
to digest and summarize it. [Citation.]” (People v. Zackery (2007) 147 Cal.App.4th 380,
389.) At sentencing the trial court did not mention an award of presentence credit, but
the minute order and abstract of judgment indicate that the trial court awarded 16 days
of credit. Because it appears from the record that defendant was entitled to 16 days
of presentence credit, we will order that credit, thereby rendering the minute order and
abstract of judgment correct.
Moreover, the minute order and abstract of judgment do not reflect the trial court’s
oral imposition of a $50 crime lab analysis fee plus assessments of $155, or the $150
drug program fee plus penalty assessments of $465. We will direct the trial court
to correct the minute order and abstract of judgment to reflect the oral pronouncement
of judgment in that regard.

DISPOSITION
The judgment is modified to dismiss counts 1 and 2 and the attendant
enhancement allegations, and to award 16 days of presentence credit. The judgment
is affirmed as modified. The trial court is directed to correct the minute order and
abstract of judgment to reflect the oral imposition of a $50 crime lab analysis fee plus
assessments of $155, and a $150 drug program fee plus penalty assessments of $465.
The trial court is further directed to forward a certified copy of the corrected abstract
of judgment to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
