California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Johnson, C077455 (Cal. App. 2015):
2. People v. Trujillo (2015) 60 Cal.4th 850, on which the People also rely, does not concern attorney fees and is not on point to the issues reached in this case. It merely reaffirms the general applicability of the forfeiture rule to sentencing.
3. The People's briefing did not reach these issues, instead putting all their eggs in the forfeiture basket.
