P. v. Terry
Defendant pleaded no contest to inflicting corporal injury on a cohabitant (Pen. Code, 273.5, subd. (a); further section references are to the Penal Code), stemming from an incident in which he punched his girlfriends face and head, grabbed her by the hair and kicked her after she had fallen to the floor. Defendant was placed on probation for three years with terms and conditions including a requirement that he serve 120 days in jail. Less than a month later, defendants probation was revoked based on a probation officers declaration alleging that defendant failed to report for his jail sentence and falsely identified himself to a peace officer. ( 148.9.) A subsequent amended declaration contained several additional allegations concerning defendants failure to comply with conditions of probation.
Defendant was arrested in another county on a bench warrant for the violations of probation. He posted bail but failed to appear in court in the matter. Consequently, defendant was charged with failing to appear on a felony ( 1320.5) and an enhancement for committing the offense while out on bail on another charge. ( 12022.1.)
Court have undertaken an independent examination of the entire record in this case and have found no arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant. The judgment is affirmed.
