People v. Hamedgreen1 sentence2016(See People v. Hamed (2013) 221 Cal.App.4th 928, 941 [unauthorized sentence may be corrected even when raised for first time on appeal].) Hence, we need not address the ineffective assistance of counsel claim in the opening brief, and we will deny Banks’s habeas corpus petition as moot. 5 involved two distinct criminal acts committed in a single course of conduct: one act of forcible oral copulation involving appellant and a second act of forcible oral copulation in concert involving appellant and ‘Mr. McHenry,’ the second suspect. | 1 | 1 |

In Re Marriage of Flahertygreen1 sentence2003(Flaherty, supra, 31 Cal.3d at p. 650 [appeal is frivolous and subject to sanction “only when it is prosecuted for an improper motive—to harass the respondent or delay the effect of an adverse judgment—or when it indisputably has no merit—when any reasonable attorney would agree that the appeal is totally and completely without merit”].)
