What is the determinate and indeterminate range of sentence for a defendant convicted of attempted murder and firearm use enhancement?

Yim contends the sentence violates sections 1170 and 1170.1, as well as rule 4.451 of the California Rules of Court.⁴ Specifically, while it was lawful to impose the full determinate upper term of 9 years for the attempted murder and 20 years for the enhancement on count 2, it should have imposed only one-third that much3 years for the attempted murder and 6 years 8 months on the enhancementfor counts 3 and 4. Respondent agrees in principle but notes that the sentence for attempted murder on counts 3 and 4 should be one-third of the 7-year midterm, not one-third of the 9-year upper term. (See 664, subd. (a) [punishment for attempted murder is 5, 7 or 9 years]; 1170.1 [sentence on subordinate counts should be one-third the middle term (and one-third the term of an enhancement corresponding to those counts)]; People v. Moody
