_________________________________________
Appellant Jerome Canady appeals from the court’s sentencing determinations. He contends the court erred in imposing multiple statutory enhancement provisions for the same two prior offenses. In the alternative, he argues the court abused its discretion in deciding to impose two one-year enhancements for his prior prison terms pursuant to 1 Penal Code section 667.5, subdivision (b), in addition to three five-year enhancements under section 667, subdivision (a)(1), which were ordered by this court in a prior unpublished opinion. Appellant contends the court also erred in failing to recalculate his credits and to take into consideration the time he served prior to resentencing. Respondent agrees that the enhancements were imposed improperly and that the court should have recalculated his credits, including the actual days in custody up to the time of resentencing. We shall direct the trial court to strike the two one-year enhancements that were imposed under section 667.5, subdivision (b), and remand the case to that court for recalculation of presentence credits. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL SUMMARY According to the charging information, on February 25, 2006, appellant reached into a woman’s car and grabbed her purse. Appellant was later taken into custody and charged with second degree robbery. (§ 211.) The information further alleged that appellant suffered three prior serious felony convictions (§ 667, subd. (a)(1)) and 11 prior “strike” convictions (§§ 1170.12, 667, subds. (b)-(i)). The information also alleged appellant had served three prior separate prison terms within the meaning of section 667.5, subdivision (b). In December 2007, a jury found appellant guilty of the robbery charge. The jury also found he had suffered five prior felony convictions and served three prior prison terms for those convictions. Appellant was sentenced to 25 years to life, and the court imposed, but stayed, the sentence enhancements. He filed a timely appeal.
