P. v. Serrano
Onofre Serrano appeals from the judgment entered following his no contest plea to selling/transporting/offering to sell a controlled substance (Health & Saf. Code, 11352, subd. (a)) and his admission that he previously suffered a prior conviction of a serious or violent felony within the meaning of the Three Strikes law (Pen. Code 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d) and 667, subds. (b)-(d).) Pursuant to the negotiated plea, the trial court struck the prior strike conviction and placed appellant on formal probation for three years under certain terms and conditions, including that he serve 541 days in county jail with credit given for 541 days. Appellant requested but was denied a certificate of probable cause. The evidence at the preliminary hearing established that during the early morning hours of August 8, 2005, in Long Beach, appellant sold rock cocaine to a confidential informant. The judgment is affirmed.
