         APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Diego County, David J.

Danielsen, Judge. Affirmed as modified.

         Christian C. Buckley, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant

and Appellant.

         Kamala D. Harris, Attorney General, Gerald A. Engler, Chief Assistant Attorney

General, Julie L. Garland, Assistant Attorney General, Arlene A. Sevidal, Andrew S.

Mestman and Minh U. Le, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.

         On June 26, 2014, James O. Harvey entered a guilty plea to one count of

possession of a controlled substance without a prescription (Health & Saf. Code, § 11350,
subd. (a)), then a felony. Harvey was sentenced to eight months in prison, to be served

locally.

       In December 2014, Harvey filed a petition under Proposition 47 (Pen. Code,1

§ 1170.18; the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act of 2014) for resentencing. The trial

court granted the relief and reduced the offense to a misdemeanor. The court imposed the

same custody period as before but added a one-year parole period. The court also

imposed the same $300 restitution fine as previously ordered.

       Harvey appeals contending the court erred in adding a one-year parole period, and

that his excess credits should be counted against the parole period. Harvey also argues

the restitution fine should be reduced because the minimum restitution fine for a

misdemeanor is $150.

       The People agree the parole period should be stricken and thus the other

arguments about credits are moot. The People also argue there was no abuse of

discretion by the court in setting the restitution fine at $300. In any event they contend

the issue of the fine amount has been waived by failure to object in the trial court.

       We agree with the parties that the parole period must be stricken. In our view that

renders the credit issues moot. With regard to the fine, we find the issue has been

forfeited. Thus, we will direct the trial court to strike the parole term. In all other

respects we will affirm.2

                                               I

                                       PAROLE TERM

       Harvey contends the trial court erred in imposing a one-year parole period after he

was resentenced to a misdemeanor pursuant to section 1170.18. The People agree and

ask that we strike the parole term.

       Section 1170.18, subdivision (d) provides in part: "A person who is resentenced

pursuant to subdivision (b) shall be given credit for time served and shall be subject to

parole for one year following completion of his or her sentence, unless the court, in its

discretion, as part of its resentencing order, releases the person from parole."

       Section 1170.18, subdivision (e) provides: "Under no circumstances may

resentencing under this section result in the imposition of a term longer than the original

sentence."

       In People v. Pinon (2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1232 (Pinon), the court held that the

added one-year parole period upon resentencing is an additional term within the meaning

of section 1170.18, subdivision (e). (Pinon, supra, at p. 1238.) The People do not

challenge the reasoning of the Pinon decision.




2      The facts of the underlying offense are not relevant to any issue presented by this
appeal. Therefore, we will omit the traditional statement of facts.
                                               3
        We agree with the court's analysis in Pinon, supra, 238 Cal.App.4th 1232 and

therefore we accept the People's concession and will strike the parole term. Harvey's

additional arguments about entitlement to credits against the parole term are moot in light

of our disposition.

                                                 II

                                          RESTITUTION FINE

        At the original felony sentencing in this case the court imposed the minimum $300

restitution fine. When the court resentenced Harvey it imposed the original $300 fine.

Harvey did not object to the fine or the amount.

        On appeal, counsel contends the court erred in not reducing the fine to $150 which

is the minimum fine for misdemeanor sentences. We find the issue has been forfeited by

failure to raise it in the trial court.

        Section 1202.4, subdivision (b)(1) requires that persons convicted of a felony pay

a restitution fine of not less than $300, nor more than $10,000. In the case of persons

convicted of misdemeanors the fine is not less than $150 nor more than $1,000.

        The fine imposed was well within the range of fines appropriate for the newly

sentenced misdemeanor. Harvey argues the fine is unauthorized because the court did

not exercise its discretion. We disagree. Where the court imposes a fine within the

lawful range of fines, the absence of a timely objection deprives this court of a record on

which to review the court's exercise of discretion. Failure to timely raise sentencing

issues in the trial court forfeits such issues for appellate review. (People v. Garcia (2010)

185 Cal.App.4th 1203, 1218; People v. Scott (1994) 9 Cal.4th 331, 355-357.)

                                     DISPOSITION

       The one-year parole period added to Harvey's term upon resentencing is ordered

stricken. The superior court is ordered to modify its minutes accordingly. In all other

respects the judgment is affirmed.
