- P. v. Delgado 5/29/08 SC [5/29/2008]
Criminal Law & Procedure, Sentencing
In a prosecution for second degree robbery with a dangerous and deadly weapon and commercial burglary, the judgment is affirmed over defendant's claim that the abbreviated notation "Asslt w DWpn" on an abstract of judgment for a prior conviction was insufficient to prove that such conviction had occurred under the deadly weapon prong of Penal Code section 245(a)(1), and was thus for a serious felony. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/data2/californiastatecases/s141282.pdf - P. v. Miles 5/29/08 SC [5/29/2008]
Criminal Law & Procedure, Sentencing
A sentence for multiple felony offenses, enhanced under the "Three Strikes" law, is affirmed where: 1) the evidence strongly supported an inference that "armed bank robbery” and "kidnapping" notations on a 1976 federal judgment form were intended to describe a conviction for conduct which, under California law, constitutes the serious felony of bank robbery; and 2) thus, there was a sufficient evidentiary basis for a finding that the prior conviction at issue was for a "serious felony" for enhancement purposes. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/data2/californiastatecases/s140413.pdf - P. v. Richardson 5/22/08 SC [5/22/2008]
