with respect to his sentence need not be addressed. However, two brief points are noted with respect to the ICA’s decision on this issue. First, respectfully, the ICA mistakenly noted that Gomez-Lobato was sentenced to one thirty-day term of incarceration, suspended for two years. See Gomez-Lobato, 2012 WL 5272234, at *1. Rather, Gomez-Lobato was sentenced to one 30-day term of imprisonment, and to an additional 30-day term of imprisonment, which was suspended provided that Gomez-Lobato comply with the terms and conditions of his probation. Second, at sentencing, the court apparently decided that Gomez-Lobato had failed to take responsibility for his actions before asking him if he would like to make a statement. Cf. State v. Chow, 77 Hawai'i 241, 246-47, 883 P.2d 663, 668-69 (1994) (<HOLDING>). Although the court eventually heard from
holding that defendants have a right to counsel in criminal proceedings recognizing that a criminal defendants right to a fair trial is fundamental holding that false statements are constitutionally protected recognizing that a defendants right to be heard in criminal proceedings prior to sentencing is constitutionally protected recognizing that criminal defendants right to testify is subject to crossexamination
