Description
This is a certiorari review of two court of appeals decisions, Benito Robles v. People, No. 88CA163 (Colo. App. Jan. 4, 1990), and Victor Robles v. People, No. 88CA289 (Colo. App. Jan. 4, 1990).*fn1 Each of the defendants was convicted of two counts of aggravated robbery, two counts of first-degree assault, robbery of the elderly, first-degree burglary, theft, aggravated motor-vehicle theft, and seven counts of crime of violence; each was subsequently sentenced to five consecutive terms of imprisonment totaling 112 years. In both decisions the court of appeals upheld the trial court's ruling that the crime-of-violence statute, subsection 16-11-309(1)(a), 8A C.R.S. (1986), mandated the imposition of consecutive sentences whenever a defendant is convicted of more than one crime of violence arising out of the same incident. We disagree and accordingly reverse and remand for resentencing.
