THE PEOPLE,
Plaintiff and Respondent, C088958
v. (Super. Ct. No. 17CF04018)
DELARRIAN RONNE WRIGHT,
Defendant and Appellant.
Defendant Delarrian Ronne Wright pleaded no contest to kidnapping and assault with a semiautomatic firearm against a girlfriend, and assault with a deadly weapon against another woman that he held in his home for two days. Defendant admitted a Penal Code section 12022, subdivision (a)(1) enhancement allegation that he was armed with a firearm in the commission of a kidnapping.1 The trial court sentenced defendant to an aggregate 12 years in prison and ordered him to register as a sex offender after it

found that defendant’s acts were done for the purpose of sexual gratification, that he was likely to reoffend, and that registration was necessary to protect the public. Defendant now contends (1) the trial court erred in failing to provide a separate statement of reasons for requiring sex offender registration, and (2) if his first contention is forfeited, his trial attorney rendered ineffective assistance in failing to object. We conclude defendant forfeited his first contention, and he has not established ineffective assistance. We will affirm the judgment. BACKGROUND The People charged defendant with 19 felony counts: (1) willfully inflicting corporal injury upon girlfriend S.L., resulting in a traumatic condition upon her (count 1- §273.5, subd. (a)); (2) grand theft of a firearm (count 2 - § 487, subd. (d)(2)); (3) assault with a semiautomatic firearm against S.L. and J.J. (counts 3, 6, 7, 10, 13, and 18 - § 245, subd. (b)); (4) criminal threats against S.L. and J.J. (counts 4, 8, 14, and 17 - § 422, subd. (a)); (5) possession of a firearm by a felon (counts 5, 12, and 15 - § 29800, subd. (a)(1)); (6) kidnapping of S.L. (count 9 - § 207, subd. (a)); (7) sodomy by use of force against S.L. (count 11 - § 286, subd. (c)(2)); (8) false imprisonment by violence against J.J. (count 16 - § 236); and (9) assault with a deadly weapon other than a firearm against J.J. (count 19 - § 245, subd. (a)(1)). Of relevance here, it was alleged that defendant was armed with a firearm in the commission of the count 9 felony offense within the meaning of section 12022, subdivision (a)(1). Defendant pleaded no contest to count 3 (assault with a semiautomatic firearm against S.L.), count 9 (kidnapping of S.L.), and count 19 (assault with a deadly weapon against J.J.) and admitted the section 12022, subdivision (a)(1) enhancement allegation in count 9. The trial court accepted the plea and admission and dismissed all of the other
