P. v. Jackson
A jury convicted defendant Cedric Howard Jackson of 8 counts of conspiracy to commit robbery, 13 counts of second degree robbery, 1 count of aggravated assault, and 8 counts of street terrorism. It also found true defendant had committed 22 of the crimes for the benefit of a criminal street gang and that a principal used a firearm in 12 of the offenses. The court sentenced him to 30 years and 8 months in state prison. Defendant appeals, contending the evidence was insufficient to prove the gang allegations and five of the crimes. We agree with the latter and reverse his convictions on counts 1 through 5, which moots defendants contention the court erred in imposing the upper term on count 2. Court also agree the court erred in imposing enhancements both under Penal Code section 186.22, subdivision (b) (all further statutory references are to this code) and section 12022.53, and remand the case for resentencing. In all other respects, the judgment is affirmed.
