P. v. Guerra
Raymond Guerra was charged with one count of failure to register as a sex offender (Pen. Code, 290, subd. (g)(2)). The information further alleged that appellant suffered one prior conviction and prison commitment ( 667.5, subd. (b)) and one strike prior ( 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12). Appellant pled not guilty and denied the special allegations. At a readiness conference, Guerra made a Marsden motion, which the court (Judge Danielsen) denied. Approximately two weeks later, Guerra waived jury after being properly admonished of his constitutional rights. Judge Woods found him guilty of failing to register as a sex offender as required by law within five working days of his release from custody. The court also found true both the prison prior and the strike prior. At sentencing, Judge Woods struck both the prison prior and strike prior and sentenced him to two years in prison. The judgment is affirmed.
