P. v. Tobar
A jury convicted defendant, Jerry Richard Tobar, of three counts of second degree robbery (Pen. Code, 211)[1]and two counts of second degree attempted robbery ( 664; 211), with an enhancement for each count for personal use of a firearm. ( 12022.53, subd. (b).) The trial court sentenced defendant to state prison for 13 years.
On appeal, defendant contends: (1) the trial court violated his right to counsel of choice when it denied his motion to continue so he could substitute retained counsel; (2) there was insufficient evidence of the crimes charged; and (3) the trial court erred by not instructing the jury on lesser included offenses. Court affirm.
