Does defendant have forfeited his right to object during sentencing?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Lazaro, B255702 (Cal. App. 2015):
The People argue that defendant has forfeited this claim for failure to object during sentencing. (People v. Kelley (1997) 52 Cal.App.4th 568, 583.) We agree, but even if he had not forfeited the issue, this claim would fail.
