Deloza, 18 Cal.4th 585, 595 (1998) ("[S]ection 654 does not apply to robbery and attempted robbery convictions involving multiple victims[.]"). Accordingly, petitioner has fails to establish any basis upon which his appellate counsel could have persuasively argued on appeal that the sentence imposed upon petitioner violated California Penal Code 654 and its prohibition on multiple punishments.
