P. v. Phillips
An information charged defendant Conway Joseph Phillips with five offenses arising from an attack on a single victim. The jury convicted him of misdemeanor sexual battery (Pen. Code, 243.4, subd. (d)(1); unspecified section references that follow are to the Penal Code), felony false imprisonment ( 236), and assault with a deadly weapon ( 245, subd. (a)(1)) and found a charged weapons enhancement to be true ( 12022, subd. (b)(1)), but was unable to reach a verdict on two charges of sexual assault. ( 220.) The trial court sentenced defendant to an aggregate prison term of three years eight months. On appeal, defendant challenges the admissibility of evidence of uncharged sex offenses and the constitutionality of a related jury instruction. He also asserts that presentence credits were improperly calculated. None of these contentions has merit, and Court therefore affirm the judgment.
