P. v. Zapata
Gabriel Zapata and Nancy Fuchs were charged with robbery (count 1; Pen. Code, 211) and burglary (count 2; Pen. Code, 459). They were further charged with one prison prior within the preceding five years. (Pen. Code, 667.5, subd. (b).) Zapata and Fuchs were tried together before a single jury. The jury convicted them of both charges. In a bifurcated trial, the court found true the prison prior allegations. Zapata was sentenced to a total of four years in prison. Zapata appealed. Zapata contends that the judgment must be reversed because he was deprived of his right to the conflict-free assistance of counsel. Court reject this contention and affirm.
