P. v. Cervantes
Javier Hernandez Cervantes was convicted by jury of criminal threats (Pen. Code, 422; count 1) and misdemeanor battery ( 242; count 2).[1] The trial court sentenced appellant to the mid-term of two years in state prison. On count 2, it imposed a concurrent sentence of 162 days in county jail. Appellant contends that there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction of making a criminal threat, and that the trial court erred by refusing to give a self defense instruction and by admitting evidence of his five prior convictions. Court affirm.
