P. v. Cordova
A jury convicted defendant Armando Cordova of two counts of second degree murder (Pen. Code, 187, subd. (a)),[1]one count of attempted murder ( 664/187, subd. (a)), one count of attempted voluntary manslaughter ( 664/192, subd. (a)), and two counts of assault with a firearm ( 245, subd. (a)(2)). The jury also found true a series of special allegations regarding gun use and great bodily injury appended to the various counts. On appeal, Cordova asserts the court erroneously instructed the jury on relevancy of the evidence of his voluntary intoxication to his guilt of the charged offenses.
