P. v. Marino
A jury found defendant guilty of being a felon in possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, 12021, subd. (a)(1)), and being a felon in possession of ammunition (Pen. Code, 12316, subd. (b)(1)).[1] Defendant admitted suffering seven prior convictions for which he served prison terms. ( 667.5, subd. (b).) The court sentenced defendant to state prison for a term of nine years. Defendant contends the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress evidence discovered during a search of his vehicle because defendant was illegally detained. Additionally, defendant contends that the prosecutor violated defendants constitutional rights to due process by (a) allowing a witness to offer perjured testimony at the suppression hearing; and (b) failing to disclose exculpatory evidence to the defense. Court affirm the judgment.
