1973Code, § 1203; People v. Rojas (1962) 57 Cal.2d 676, 682 [ 21 Cal. Rptr. 564 , 371 P.2d 300 ]; People v. Keller (1966) 245 Cal.App.2d 711, 715-718 [ 54 Cal.Rptr. 154 ]; People v. Causey (1964) 230 Cal.App.2d 576, 579-580 [ 41 Cal.Rptr. 116 ].) The soundness of petitioner’s claim in this regard is shown by In re Cortez, supra, 6 Cal.3d 78—decided seven months after petitioner’s Tenorio hearing.

1972Since the Tenorio rule is fully *336 retroactive (In re Cortez, 6 Cal.3d 78, 82-83 [ 98 Cal.Rptr. 307 , 490 P.2d 819 ]), it obviously applies on a direct appeal. 5 The judgment is reversed as to the sentence, and the case is remanded to the Superior Court of Los Angeles County for that court to exercise its independent judicial discretion as to defendant’s eligibility for probation.

1971The reinstatement of the appeal in 1970, therefore, made available to appellant the Aranda contention now raised. 2 Although habeas corpus is the apparently proper procedure for asserting the Tenorio issue (In re Johnson, 3 Cal.3d 404, 418-420 [ 90 Cal.Rptr. 569 , 475 P.2d 841 ]), in the instant case where the appeal is pending, a separate proceeding would be wasteful and the People have no objection.

( Davis, supra, 46 Cal.3d at p. 83 , 249 Cal.Rptr. 300 , 757 P.2d 11 .)
