P. v. Ybarra
Defendant Michael Anthony Ybarra appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after he pleaded no contest to second degree burglary (Pen. Code, 459/460), petty theft with a prior conviction (Pen. Code, 666), and resisting a peace officer (Pen. Code, 148, subd. (a)(1)). Defendant also admitted that he had suffered six prior strike convictions and had served three prior prison terms (Pen. Code, 667.5). The trial court sentenced defendant to a term of 25 years to life. On appeal, defendant contends that the trial courts inducement that it was inclined to grant his Romero motion[1] in exchange for his no contest pleas, coupled with its incomplete and misleading statements regarding the scope of its discretion, rendered his pleas invalid. Court find no error and affirm.
