How has section 654 of the California Code of Criminal Procedure been interpreted in the context of sexual assault cases?

[768 P.2d 1087] Here, defendant cites various cases applying section 654 in other contexts and makes the general argument that his three sex acts were part of a continuous "violent" transaction. (See, e.g., People v. Bauer (1969) 1 Cal.3d 368, 377, 82 Cal.Rptr. 357, 461 P.2d 637 ["where a defendant robs his victim in one continuous transaction of several items of property, punishment for robbery on the basis of the taking of one of the items and [punishment for] other crimes [such as car theft or possession of contraband] on the basis of the taking of the other items is not permissible"].)
