P. v. Haley
A jury convicted defendant Ross Brenton Haley of transporting marijuana (Health & Saf. Code, 11360, subd. (a)), driving under the influence of alcohol (Veh. Code, 23152, subd. (a)), and speed exhibition. (Veh. Code, 23109, subd. (c).) The trial court suspended imposition of sentence, placed him on probation for three years, and ordered that he serve 30 days in the county jail.
The issues raised on appeal relate solely to the medical marijuana defense defendant raised to the charge of transporting marijuana. ( 11360.) He claims section 11362.77 is an unconstitutional amendment of an initiative statute and is violative of the equal protection clause, the trial courts refusal to consider relevant legislative history in construing section 11362.77 resulted in instructional error, and the trial court erred by excluding defense evidence as inadmissible hearsay. Court find no prejudicial error and affirm the judgment.
