P. v. Stone
Defendant Raymond Luke Stone, III, appeals judgment entered following jury convictions for being a felon in possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, 12021, subd. (a)(1)[1]; count 2); and committing misdemeanor violations ( 148, subd. (a)(1); counts 3 and 4). The jury also found true three prior conviction allegations ( 667.6). Defendant was acquitted of attempting to obstruct an executive officer from performing his duty ( 69; count 1). The trial court sentenced defendant to five years in state prison. Defendant contends the trial court committed prejudicial error by giving incomplete and inaccurate jury instructions on the offense of being a felon in possession of a firearm ( 12021, subd. (a)(1)); by failing to give the jury a written version of the single witness instruction, Judicial Council of California Criminal Jury Instructions (CALCRIM) No. 301; and by excluding a portion of witness Margaret Cortezs proposed testimony as a discovery sanction due to defendants failure to name her on his witness list. Court conclude the trial court did not commit any prejudicial error and affirm the judgment.
